    I'm embarrassed to say that I've practically memorized some of your videos because of how many times I've watched them. We just got our first home, which is mid-century, and are painting it Simply White by BM. We love warm, earthy colors, and this white works in every room along with the hickory floors.

    Doing my entire house in Balboa right now. What a great color! Sometimes looks beige, sometimes grey AND depending on the light can look a little lavender. Using the white trim that's already up (house is only 3 years old) and it looks fantastic! Oh yeah, I using Regal in eggshell.

    We just had our cabinets painted white dove using Milesi paint. The color is so rich and luxurious and comforting. Was very apprehensive since it is supposed to be a chameleon color (northern facing kitchen). But it looks lovely in both cool and warm light. Almost like a very light cream, or even half and half.
    But I’m super thankful for this video!
    It touches on colors I’m all currently considering, white dove, balboa mist, Annapolis gray/ashen tan, stone harbour, (also stone hearth).
    So incredibly helpful, and also the first video/guide to using Annapolis gray. Thank you paint people!😇

    Tan and Charcoal Gray are so classy together, and for trim, I go with a different finish of one or both, yep "a 2 color pallet" just add some shine to the trim with a satin or even a semigloss. A variant of lighter shades necessary when you're working on a multiple room painting project. But these colors offer easy to pick, alternatives. shades.

    You read my mind! Just picked up a can of balboa mist. I will say, when I put the balboa swatch next to decorator’s white (my current trim color, and a pairing from one of your previous vids ) - it hurt my eyes with a cold blue tinge! BUT, when I put it next to Chantilly lace, it felt harmonious. Full disclosure: this was in the bright light of the paint store. I’m curious if you have tried that combo. Balboa+Chantilly???

      Hi Chuck, in general, it is pops of color that read well, with darker colors tending to be more popular. Red is actually a popular "pop" of color too, and it has that added anti-anxiety benefit. The black and white vibe is trending right now because of that high contrast. But I don't think there is specific research about black over red. It's more about a "pop" versus no pop.
