what paint would look best for living room

Hi @shandly1984! I saw in your profile that you don't love creams or browns, so maybe something like white walls with a bold, green accent wall (BEHR's Crown Jewel), like in this recent house tour.

I also really love the more toned-down, almost neutral, sage green (BEHR's Laurel Tree) in the dining room in this house tour.

For something a little lighter, you could go with Benjamin Moore’s Gray Huskie (1473), one of designers' favorite paint colors of the year.

Would love to see what you wind up choosing!

For a living room, choosing the right paint color can set the tone for the entire space. Neutral colors like beige, gray, or white are versatile and create a calming, sophisticated ambiance. Soft pastels such as light blue or green add a touch of tranquility and warmth. For a bolder statement, consider an accent wall in a deep navy or rich forest green. Ultimately, the best choice depends on your style and the existing decor, but aim for colors that promote comfort and relaxation.

Echoing @yyoonie91 — It depends on how you want to feel in the space! Knowing that you're naturally drawn to pastels, I recommend checking out Backdrop for some elevated, softer shades that are reminiscent of pastels but lean more "adult." I love Gin Blossoms for a calming lilac feel or Weekend Upstate for something deeper and more contemporary. Do you have photos of your space we can get a feel for?
