This is the most helpful post, and thank you for always sharing your colors and sources! Can you tell me what the sheen is on the Greenblack ceiling in Syed’s office? Is it satin like the walls….or flat? Thank you! Kelly Reply
This is very helpful! Did you use BM Aura paint throughout, or did you use their ceiling paint for ceilings, etc?Also…this is a bit random, but trying to convince my husband to paint our exterior brick…do you know if your exterior can be power-washed, or would that remove/damage the paint job? Thank you again for all that you share! Reply
Check out Romabio paint website. That’s the brand of paint the McGees used on their brick. I’ve read about it on Pinterest as well- they say it’s like “painting brick with brick”. Allows brick to breathe. 20 year warranty. Have to check which paint store in your area sells it. Reply
Hi Kristy… question about Romabio: above it says you painted the brick/trim/siding in Romabio Masonry flat paint in “White Dove” by Benjamin Moore. Does that mean that you mixed Romabio brand paint with Benjamin Moore’s White Dove paint? Or does it mean you painted the brick in Romabio and everything else in White Dove? Thanks! Reply
Thank you! In the webisode for the kitchen and laundry it is mentioned that the cabinets are Swiss Coffee at 75%. This post mentions Creamy White. Do you know which information is accurate? Reply
Were you able to get a sample of the Swiss Coffee at 75% to compare to regular Swiss Coffee? My paint store always makes a stink about doing percentages and insist that I won’t be able to see the difference if the original color is light. Thanks. Reply
Thanks for the post, l always wondered which all paints you use for the walls and furniture. Everything looks so beautiful and balanced. Thanks for Sharing. Reply
This is awesome! Can you tell us the stain color and wood species of your kitchen island? I ask because we’re adding a basement bar and I’m thinking about doing a black stain on Alder… hoping it looks like yours ? Reply
Thank you so much for this roundup–incredibly helpful! Question about the cabinets because I love the beige coloring. Would you still do the built-in cabinets in "creamy-white" and paint the walls "Swiss Coffee" ? Curious what that combo together would look like. Thanks! Reply
Great post! Also an interior designer and have always used paint in percentages…especially for ceilings when I wanted a color but the standards were either too light or dark. ? Reply
Your home is absolutely beautiful! I am curious about the wallpaper in the vanity shot- is that regular or peel and stick? I really love it! Reply
I was enjoying your email THEN The subscribe to Good things came up and I can’t get it off so I can read your post. I will not be checking out your post next time. I can’t tell if there are any typing mistakes the ad is still covering my sreeen! Reply
I don’t have Benjamin Moore paints in my area. Do you have a Sherwin Williams paint that compare to the Swiss Coffee 75% BM? Reply
I’m a bit late here but if you don’t have a Benjamin Moore, you could request swatches from their website, then take to Sherwin Williams and have them match it. I did that with a BM color called Plaster of Paris. It was also less expensive as SW has frequent sales so if you time it properly you can save a lot. Reply
This home is gorgeous! For your Swiss Coffee rooms, did the Swiss Coffee Satin create a step off from the Swiss Coffee on the walls? Or would you recommend another color for the trim for a step off? Reply
Thank you for sharing the colors and finishes. In the interior video you mentioned that the matt finish on the walls is cleanable. Is this a special paint of Benjamin Moore’s ? Reply
