We painted our 1957 MCM house with SW Andiron (very dark black olive) and used Greek Villa for the trim with Copper Penny for the doors- looks amazing and we've gotten so many compliments from neighbors. What sealed the deal was painting large swatches of our 4 possible choices on one side of the house to see in different lighting conditions- it really showed the undertones of each color immediately.

I sooooooo, love the sound of this - GREAT CHOICE. And the Copper Penny door? Mad love :)

Oooh. Copper Penny sounds intriguing!

Perfect video! Needed this. Been looking for a deep, saturated olive green for the shelving in my pantry. Now I think I should use the same color on my frint door when I finally pick one.

I'm glad it was helpful - and yes, repeating a color can be a great way to create flow in your home!

My small bathroom has white bead board and Homburg Gray walls. It’s a beautiful green! This green really illustrates what a difference lighting makes - there is no natural light in the room. In cool light it’s a beautiful gray-green, it reminds me of rocks in a river on an overcast day. When I added warm lighting, it was awful - like an army yellowish green!

which green do you recommend to on an accent wall to go with Mahogany furniture and floors? also, what neutral all house wall color goes best with Mahogany furniture and floors?

@Brooksms 4 ай бұрын

I have red brick with a few accent siding areas. Tested BM castle peak gray, country life and Devonshire green. Country life is the perfect middle ground in terms of lrv and green-ness but is a little too warm comparatively. Not sure how to find a middle ground! I thought about asking for a % darker dev. green or a % lighter c.p. gray but I've never done that before.

Which green would go with sw natural linen?

@Kate.g. 5 ай бұрын

Ohhhh this will help me to order my samplize 💛🙃 I hesitated between Pewter green, Ripe olive, Shade-Grown, Laurel Woods or I saw couple people mix 50/50 Pewter green and Ripe olive 🙃 All the walls, trims ceilings are Chantilly lace, a beautiful dark green will add personality. I will paint all doors in my home and my small kitchen island. 💚

@KylieMInteriorsPaint 5 ай бұрын

I'm so glad! And I seriously love ALLLLL of these. If you're thinking all doors/island, I would err on the side of a 'little less green vs a little more green', in which case, i DO love SW Night Owl :) But if you really want to HIT that green, Shade Grown and Ripe Olive are wicked pretty!

@Kate.g. 5 ай бұрын

@@KylieMInteriorsPaint thank a lot for this suggestion, I would try Rock bottom too 💛 I add this Night owl to my cart. I am a bit affraid about too green color, but on the other hand, I have not a lot of light and color in general look less intense. I need to try for see!

I love these dark greens! Can you please do a video on the best trims to go with some of these and why you like certain ones? Although I can't find many reviews, I really love BM Narragansett Green for it's depth, sophistication, and interesting play between the blue and green for my office cabinets with maybe Edgecomb gray or aesthetic white walls, or even a lighter blue/gray/green (I have lots of windows so the room can handle a lot of color). I have been thinking SW White Snow for trim but now I'm considering the more muted approach of a lightened version (by 25-50%) of BM White Dove or SW Cold Foam for trim. You are soooooo great at pairing colors! I would gladly sign up for a consulting package if I could catch them available so until then I will keep studying your videos and blog.

Hi Kylie! I love that SW Ripe Olive. I'd love to have my wood porch floor that color. Are there special characteristics I need in an exterior floor paint? I'd LOVE it to be high gloss if that's possible.

@KylieMInteriorsPaint 2 ай бұрын

Hey! I love it too :) I DO know that light reflects more off horizontal surfaces vs vertical, so it can look lighter than you might expect (compared to the wall). I would worry about high gloss being quite sticky to walk on??

@divyaprasad4188 4 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for all the wisdom! I am doing a kitchen remodel. We have a 2000 built house with proper cream walls. Is it better to do upper cabinets white, and lower cabinets navy, with white quartz? Or cream cabinets all over with white quartz? Would love your input!

@KylieMInteriorsPaint 4 ай бұрын

Oh jeez, that's a big question! I can say that cream cabinets are risky as its harder to find coordinating countertops and finishes, whereas the right white can be far more flexible! If you go to my blog and type in QUARTZ, I have a great post on the top 13. You can also type in 'WHITE CABINETS' and see some great posts!

I'm considering SW Roycroft Bronze Green for my kitchen cabinets. It's so pretty! Would love to know if you have any thoughts about that color. Great video!!

@KylieMInteriorsPaint 5 ай бұрын

It's a STUNNER! I love how it winks at a kind of warm earthiness without being overly olive/muddy, you know? I also love its DEPTH SW Shade Grown and Ripe Olive can be a step too colorful for some, whereas Cast Iron isn't always green enough - Roycroft Bronze Green can be an awesome happy medium. I'd love to see it all done!

My husband and I are trying to agree on a green for our exterior. We have some red brick. We have been considering Retreat but may want a warmer green. Ugh! Do you do exterior paint videos?

@KylieMInteriorsPaint 5 ай бұрын

I think that's a fabulous idea - I'll put it on my list! I do know that red brick can love green (mind you, it depends on the exact brick/windows/roof/etc. For a bit lighter/warmer, SW Cornwall Slate is interesting (it's less green). BM Fieldstone is lovely too, but less green (while still showing it). BM Raintree Green is warmer but a similar depth, October Mist is a good shift lighter!

It TOTALLY depends on your roof/landscaping/any stone or brick. Generally, yes, Urbane Bronze is a gorgeous darker shade of greige. I also love SW Thunder Gray and BM Ashwood Moss ;)
