    Just refinished kitchen cabinets to Mindful Grey with 14′ center island black. Counters San Francisco verde granite. Backsplash variated slate with glass tile accents. What to paint walls?
    Many windows with lots of light.

      Hi Kathy,

      I would look for a lighter greige that will compliment the Mindful Gray cabinets, but not compete with the pattern of the backsplash and darker granite color. I would love to help find the right color with an Interior Color Consultation! Thank you for reaching out and I hope to hear from you soon!

    I am wondering what white to paint my trim, ceiling, bookcase and brick on my fireplace to go well with mindful gray painted walls. I was thinking SW Extra white. Anything other white you would suggest? Thank you!

      Hi Leslie,

      Extra White is a great choice! It is my favorite crisp true white color from Sherwin-Williams. Have fun painting and Happy Memorial Day!

    I have a very large great room that has all four directions light coming in so paint color is different on all walls. It’s now whitish grey but too cold.
    Has to coordinate with Calcutta marble island of white and grey. Under island is grey cabinets but thinking of painting charcoal. Floors are brown with chestnut. Kitchen cabinets are white. Want a warm soft color for all walls. Since there is a 12 ft fireplace grey I can’t go into yellows. Need a bright grey with pink undertones not blue. I’m stuck. I’ve bought too many samples already of different greys. Too dark or too cold or too light. What color would you re on end?

    Hi, I’m building a new house six hours from my current home, and recently had surgery so getting down to see it, isn’t working very well.
    I chose a new gray for my main paint color. I need an accent color for 2 rather large rooms and am wondering your thoughts on SW7031 mega greige or SW7032 warm stone? I need a color for a couple edges in my coffered or tray ceilings and a wall in both my great room and master bedroom.
    Bathrooms have big windows, but on the shadier side of the house.
    Thanks
    Jackie

      Hi Barbara,

      I love Repose Gray as a main wall color! Acier and Dovetail also work well as accent walls. Sounds like they will go with your current furniture and Repose Gray will help to lighten and brighten up your space. Keep me posted on what you decide!

      Thanks so much for reaching out,
      Laura

    I’m painting the living room and kitchen of my condo in mindful gray. I want to accent the fireplace which has a black insert, a floating mantle and no other wood trim.Wish I could send you a picture! Should I choose a dark stormy gray offset the fireplace? Or should I stick with a white? I’m going for a coastal palette. thanks!

    Need an accent wall color. The main color is going to be Mindful gray. Different tones of Amber and dark wood in the room and slate sofas. Difficult to decide.

    I have dorian gray in my kitchen which opens up to a large tall ceiling living room. Does Colonial revival greenstone go with this for some color. I also have toasted pine nut on a wall going up the staircase. Just need help making all these colors mesh. thanks
