We are often asked for opinions on choosing paint colors. While we don’t profess to be decorators or professional designers, we have learned a thing or two over the years in relation to some tried and true neutral colors that seem to make decorating easier. One key to choosing long-lasting colors that seem to work with most furniture tastes and stand the test of trendy changes is to choose neutral colors. Great neutral colors make it easy to decorate and here are 6 Sherwin Williams paint colors that fit the bill.
First is Natural Linen, SW9109. This is a warm, light, creamy beige, with just enough gray undertone to help it work naturally with grays as well as lighter wood tones. We especially love it because it doesn’t pull pink or purple tints as many beige tones tend to do.
Next is Accessible Beige, SW7036. This is just a bit darker than Natural Linen, while falling in a palette that has more gray undertones. The result gives you a very warm neutral that pairs very well with earthy tones and darker woods.
Just a shade darker than Natural Linen, but in the same palette is Malabar, SW9110. We call this more of a gray khaki and it really pops with white trim and darker floors. Its warm and cozy and easy on the eyes. Weve seen this color used in a variety of decorating styles from colonial to French country to modern farmhouse.
Nomadic Desert, SW6107 moves into an earth-tone beige that really pops with black accents, like black mullion windows. It really pops with darker floors, especially when paired with a trim like Alabaster, SW7008.
As we move a little more into the gray range, we recommend Perfect Greige, SW6073. This mid-tone gray works great in both contemporary and classic settings creating a welcoming mood. This color pairs well with both beige and gray accents, again without pulling pink or purple tints…almost perfectly.
And our 6th neutral Agreeable gray, also known as Sherwin Willliams best selling paint color because it works with almost any decorating palette due to its subtle gray color with beige undertones.
