      Hi Dorothy,

      I’m sorry that picking the right color for your kitchen has been tricky! My suggestion would be to try a light gray with a blue-green undertone, like Lattice or Silverpointe for your kitchen. Both colors also coordinate well with China Doll and Bungalow Beige.

      If you are still having trouble, please feel free to contact me for a Color Consultation. I would love to help further! Thank you for reaching out and have a great rest of the week.

    Help! I am painting the main areas of our home Loggia SW 7506. Initially I picked Aesthetic white for the ceiling & now am second guessing it because I thought maybe it showed blueish. The main floor areas are north facing. Our trim is Ball of String DE6190 & we are not changing it as I just painted it last year. I considered using Ball of String for the ceiling too but not sure if yellow shows through. The painters will start on MONDAY so I appreciate your help.

      Hi Kimberly,

      I like to use a bright white on ceilings to keep the feel open. Also, if you are worried about an undertone coming through, I would go with an extra white. Let me know if I can help you find the right color through a Color Consultation!

      Thanks so much for reaching out,
      Laura

    We will use aesthetic white for the ceiling and Shiitake for the walls. However, this is a basement and I’d like a color that isn’t a black hole for light but rather provides a “glow.” Do you have any general sense for which colors have the tendency to enhance the light in the a space that will lack a lot of natural light?
