This home was designed over 25 years ago. I no longer have the paint color. I always recommend going to a good paint store to look at a range that you think might work - and then get samples and brush out/mock up an area where you can look at 2-3 options throughout the day. Colors change relative to morning, evening light.

Living room / dining room - Two tone paint shades - which walls?
Q

Well, one rule is that a wall with a window in it is often the darkest wall (if one of four walls). This might make you want to paint the window wall(s) lighter? (Depending on window size.) Also, you need to identify which walls you want to grab people's attention. These would presumably be the natural focal points at each end? You might want to paint the shorter(?) opposite walls, i.e. the one at the dining end and the one at the living room end, in bold eye-catching colours? Then perhaps use expansive and more 'neutral' light colours on the remaining longer (?) walls. However, it's very hard to visualise without the layout or pics... My ideas / suggestions may not relate at all to the layout or light sources! Good luck!

Your colour scheme sounds lovely and by the looks of it, the project is coming along really well! The best way to consider how much grey to use is probably to consider lighting (daytime and in the evening). If you have lots of natural sunlight and artificial lighting for the evening then I'm sure you're onto a winner with the grey! Good luck!

Hi, congratulations on your new home purchase ! Neutral for the entire home is a good idea if you want a consistent feeling and flow through the house, however I would consider looking at something that has a tad of interest or texture so that it doesn't become something you might get bored with? Also, I would personally try to avoid going down the grey route for an entire home, it can become over-powering. I have recently worked with wool carpets and depending on the rest of the style of your home I would highly recommend this - the have a lovely loop-style texture and a great range of neutral colours that are really versatile. They are also very comfortable and good for insulation if 100% wool. Here is one I have used previously, close-up and as a normal view which only subtly shows the different texture. The wall colour here is Natural Hessian by Dulux, and it compliments it well in all lights. I hope that helps or gives you some inspiration! Thanks, Danielle.

It could be any two cool greys from several sources but it may not matter. If you look at for example Farrow and Ball's colours it could be Ammonite and Purbeck Stone which could look very different in different settings or it could be Dimpse and Lamproom grey. In a sense, the most important thing is light because no matter what a colour looks like on a chart or an image, the light in a room can alter it dramatically. If you want cool greys then get one test pot of a pale cool as a starting point and go from there.
