      - great colors for guys. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 10:24
    - actually, this group (the Flax collection) is my favorite. -- (link) - loosilu Dec 3, 10:02
- Black with dark red highlights. -- nm - Spawn Dec 3, 09:55
- Pick a neutral color, then decide which wall will be the "focus" of the room and give it a nice bold color. - TWuG Dec 3, 09:48
- [deleted]
- white in the living room but an accent wall of a color to go with your furniture. red in the dining room. something light in the kitchen. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 3, 09:44 15
  - There will be no white walls. None. -- nm - ty97 Dec 3, 09:54 14
    - my brother! -- nm - Andie Dec 3, 10:29 1
      - Seriously! The unit looks *bad* compared to the others in the building solely because the walls are all white! - ty97 Dec 3, 10:32
    - why not? -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 09:55 11
      - I think mostly because I had white walls all my life. My father though white was the best color for walls. It now looks all bland and boring to me. - ty97 Dec 3, 10:02 10
        
        But then, don't you have to make sure all your decorations match the color? Seems like a big waste of time, but that's just me. -- nm - con_carne Dec 3, 10:33 2
        
        no more so than you have to make sure they match each other with white walls. -- nm - Andie Dec 3, 10:37
        
        match? no, of course not. you don't get all white things to go with white walls. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 10:34
        
        brick red on the left wall, continuing through into the kitchen. leave the ceiling and the wall with the doors wite to keep enough light in the space - znufrii Dec 3, 10:05 4
        
        and if you really don't want white there, find a very cool light gray, but leave the moulding white. -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 10:08 3
        
        caveat with cool gray: It makes the room very cold. -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 10:32
        
        yes, molding totally stays white, agreed -- nm - ty97 Dec 3, 10:10 1
        
        also, the exposed ductwork is awesome. -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 10:15
        
        well fine then, not white but something neutral in the front room. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 3, 10:04 1
        
        yeah, I'm partial to the neutral color concept, then pop out color with area rugs and accents. -- nm - ty97 Dec 3, 10:10
- dark red -- nm - Dr.Vermin Dec 3, 09:39
- taupe or loden. -- nm - CQ Dec 3, 09:39
- White -- nm - znufrii Dec 3, 09:37
- I might just be a boring person, but I never understand why plain old eggshell isn't suitable for every room in every house. - con_carne Dec 3, 09:36 3
  - eggshell is for renters! -- nm - loosilu Dec 3, 09:40 2

- All one room? -- nm - mara Dec 3, 09:31 3
  - Yep -- nm - ty97 Dec 3, 09:50 2
    - picture -- (link) - ty97 Dec 3, 09:53 [flickr] 1
