Hi Kylie, what is the gray color of the living room with TV wall or similar color of the pic where the 4 blue (Boothbay, Brewstar, MSA, MD) colors are compared? Thanks.

Hello,

Mineral Deposit looks great on the Door in the photo. Do you happen to know the name of the color on the walls next to it? Thank you!

Hi Kylie! Can you tell me what color blue-gray is in the first picture posted of this blog? It’s a hallway picture with chair rail and a round black mirror hanging on the wall? Thanks so much!!

In reply to Kiley Hoyt. Hi Kiley! I haven't seen your home, but from the SOUNDS of it, you might check out Benjamin Moore Gray 2121-10 (you need the number to find it). Or it might at least get you on a better track ;).

Hi Kylie,

I’m reading all your articles for help with choosing my front door color and they have been extremely helpful. I want a blue green door but don’t think the greens work with my pavers which are more icy and I think have more purple. My paint is willow creek, also a purple undertone, and I have red/pink brick for my doorsteps. Should I lean into (see I’m using your phrases!) more of a purple blue? Also I have no direct sunlight (recessed front door faces north-north east) so everything I try in the blue green greys look, well, grey. Any suggestions are very appreciated! Thank you.

We used SW misty in our upstairs loft. It is beautiful for that area. It is kind of like the color of faded blue jeans and a bit moody. I tried it downstairs but it looked muddy on every wall I tried.

In reply to Sandra. This was an incredibly helpful article. What paint color is in the first photo, the corner of the wall with the circular black mirror and white wainscoting underneath? Thank you!

In reply to Joanna.

Hi Joanna, well, that was a hands-on project and I can tell you with ALLLL certainty that it was indeed Network Gray! The thing is, every gray has undertones and Network Gray has MORE than usual, so it’s not a great ‘neutral gray’ look and you can definitely see more blue at times. This can also shift depending on your exposure/interior finishes. Grab a paper chip sample of Dorian Gray, which is a more neutral gray (a warm one with its own undertones). This might show you HOW BLUE Network Gray can look!
I hope that helps :). Let me know!

In reply to KylieMawdsley. Hey Kylie, Thanks so much for this article! I’m also looking for the paint color in the very first picture but two of my Sherwin Williams paint specialists said it was not Network Gray. :( Any recommendations as to what this color is or is it just distorted blueish in the photo? Network Gray seems to be way more on the “gray” side and not blue side. ?? Sorry for the confusion!

In reply to Michael McNulty. Well, I find that my clients usually lean into colours with a BIT more gray to them OR a bit more depth. I'm not saying no, but I haven't come across it before ;).

How do you feel about Stardew as an exterior color?

Under what circumstances would Gray Timberwolf scream purple? If I missed that in your article I apologize! BTW, I’m using Newburyport Blue in my kitchen with oak cabinets, brushed nickel hardware, white subway tile, light countertops and white appliances. Trying to do the best with what we have therefore not replacing or painting the cabinets…but we will be investing in better lighting! I love that blue! So colorful! And we used Icy Moon Drops in our girls’ room and it’s so fun and fresh (like my baby girls)! Thank you for helping us folks that are clueless when it comes to color!

Kylie, your site is amazing! Quick question, the Gray 2121-10 (totally agree with your rant!) fireplace pic…what is the coordinating wall color?? And if you were to do it in a dining room as a top/bottom division with a chair rail, do you think the dark would be best on the top or bottom?? My trim is Chatilly Lace 🙂 Thank you so much!!

Good question! That’s Benjamin Moore Sea Star, a blue-green blend – she’s a BEAUTY!

In reply to Ellen.

Seriously, I love Trout Gray SO MUCH! Which is my passive-aggressive way of saying…SEND PHOTOS! ;). If you want to snap some, you can send them to kylie@kylieminteriors.ca If that’s not your jam, that’s cool too!

Hi, Kylie – Great article. By the way, I painted the wall behind my bed with Trout Gray and I LOVE it. I also used Trout Gray on a wall with a fireplace, in order to make the fireplace less conspicuous (similar to how you used a dark SW shade – was it Cyberspace? – on the wall with your tv in your prior house, I think).

Hi Kylie
I too am looking for a grey blue to complete my kitchen/family room makeover. I have looked at SW Tinsmith and BM Stonington Grey but also really like SW Zircon and wonder how this colour compares to those.
Love your posts. I’ve gotten so much great advice from them.
