   I am looking for a beautiful soft cool but comfy gray with blue tones NOT beige or green at all.

   I am painting my entire house this color. So far I have sampled Repose Gray and Gray Screen. I tried Silverpoint first but way too light and bright.

   What do you suggest?

     Hi Julianne,

     You have sampled some good colors so far! My suggestion is to try Samovar Silver SW 6233. It has more depth than Silverpointe with definite blue undertones. I like that it does have some gray undertones to keep it comfy and not too bright! I have seen pictures of beautiful interiors painted in this color. If Samovar Silver turns out to be too dark, Misty is one shade lighter and is also a good option.

     Let me know how everything turns out! If you need a good way to sample, grab a few of my Peel & Stick Paint Samples to test out colors.

     Thanks so much,
     Laura

   Would Upward blue be suitable for a master bedroom with Cherry Mahogany furniture.? Thinking of using Kilim on rest of home with Antique White trim

     Hi Alison,

     Upward could work in a Master Bedroom!I would definitely get a sample first since blues can be tricky and you might need to guard against the room turning out too baby blue. It would be beautiful as an accent wall against your headboard and would coordinate well with your cherry mahogany furniture and the rest of your home in the very neutral Kilim Beige/Antique White wall/trim combo. North Star might also be a good option (it looks like a toned down version of Upward) for your space if you want a soft blue. Thanks for your comment and please let me know if you would like further Color Consultation!
