I just painted the beadboard greek villa and I think it’s too green/yellow. I could stick with the simply white walls, trim and beadboard with evergreen fog cabinets or keep the walls simply white and do alabaster or white dove trim and headboard. Why is choosing colors so hard!! I think the simply white may be too crisp for evergreen fog…

Hmmmm. It really could depend on the flooring and the look of the room it flows into. Might you consider simplifying the palette by doing board and batten or wainscoting on the bottom walls – in Pure White to match the trim and then Evergreen Fog on the upper walls? :).

I think this could look quite lovely!

THANKS!!! From one redhead to another, I’m a huge fan of yours!

Love your posts! I’ve learned so much.
We’re painting our kitchen next week and I’m waffling with my color choices!

We live in the north half of a duplex, and the kitchen is on the west side. The afternoon sun comes in the slider door and there’s a north window above the sink. In the morning it’s quite dim.

I wanted to use evergreen fog for lower cabinets and a new pantry area, but I think it will absorb light I want to reflect into the kitchen and hopefully cast into the darker middle of the house. It’s all open concept.

So I’ve veered course, and I’m thinking SW neutral ground on the walls, SW alabaster for cabinets and Evergreen Fog on the small island.
(We have Baltic brown granite and a new light brown backsplash)

Hopefully the new plan is reasonable! I was so excited for evergreen fog, but I don’t want to dim the light we get any further. The darker backsplash already sucked out some light!

I feel like the green in Evergreen and the violet in Requisite could be a WINK too reactive with each other. Evergreen could make Requisite look that bit MORE violet, just in comparison.

Of those 2, I do like Evergreen Fog, as long as you’re good with being committed to green on a large scale 🙂

Again, thank you for your awesome reviews and help.

Thank you so much !!

From the sounds of it, Evergreen Fog could be GORGEOUS!

This sounds like my color palette! Gossamer Veil is my all-purpose wall color, Extra White for trim and cabinets, and then I use Evergreen Fog and Outerspace as accents.

Oooo, awesome! And I woudl be inclined to leave the trim white myself 🙂

Sounds lovely! You might darken Evergreen Fog by 25% though (maybe even 50%), just to give it a bit more depth/body.

It could make them pop a bit more as opposites do attract and can make each other stronger!

Hi Laura! It’s hard to say without seeing this lightened version of RP, but my FIRST thought is that it feels okay. This being said, I LOOOOVE the idea of Gibraltar with REpose Gray without even thinking about it!

Hi Amber! I’ve chosen White Dove, but this will likely be too warm for your tile and vanity. You MIGHT even bump up to SW High Reflective White or BM Chantilly Lace, see which one blends the best with your vanity/tile 🙂

Hi Tracie!~ While I miiiiight put HC 27, HC 83 in adjoining rooms in a palette, if I HAD to, I’m not totally loving them together. CSP 245 is better as it’s a bit more muted than HC 27. I would AVOID 602 as it has too much green in it, making it look like competition to Evergreen Fog – it’s not nearly neutral enough. Overall, I would stick with more MUTED warm tones and a greige-green that’s DEFINITELY more greige (leaning into gray) and considerably less green.

Great article, thank you, it’s a fabulous colour. We had considered adding this colour to rooms (west, northwest and a dark kitchen that gets filtered south light from under a porch) that already have warm whites to creme tones and a bit of griege ( BM HC 27, BM HC 83 , BM CSP 245) Are these tones too warm to partner well? Alternately we were considering BM CC 602 which is very olive grey. Thanks for all your great articles.

Oh, it could be STUNNING, as long as you love the idea of the oak cabinets looking that bit stronger 🙂

Thank you, Madison! I’m SUPER EXCITED to use it in our lake home as it doesn’t suit our current house at all :).

Oooo, you’ll see a GOOD difference between the two. Evergreen Fog is lighter with its LRV of 30, whereas Pewter Green comes in lower at 12, so it’s a substantial shift. Pewter Green is also a TOUCH cooler without flashing blue (EG doesn’t flash blue either though) :).
