Gray paint for living room??Need Help!
I like gray with white trim, but don't know if it would look good in a living room...
Also, we have dark brown furniture...should we stick with warmer colors for paint?
Are there warm shades of Gray??
Any pics or ideas/inspirations are welcome!
TIA

Re: Gray paint for living room??Need Help!
I used a warm shade of gray, called Revere Pewter. Another great one on that swatch is Edgecomb Gray, I used this also. I have dark furniture and very white trim. Looks phenomenal. If I can find some pics, I will post them but it's warm, not cold, and just perfect. Sort of a taupey gray, with RP being the darker more gray and Edgecomb more gray/light tan.

Re: Gray paint for living room??Need Help!
we haven't painted yet (but should by end of this week) but we did a swatch for our living/dining room. the color we picked was BM Smoke Embers. i love it and cannot wait to see what it looks like. we will have white trim and moldings and likely darker furniture. i think the swatch looks taupe-y / gray but its gray on the walls.
i googled and found this

My LR is BM Adagio. It's a silvery-blue-gray...my sofa is chocolate as are my drapes (with white sheers) and I have a cream rug (the photo below is old). I think it works

We used a color called stone hearth(spelling?) I believe it was from BM. I thought it was going to look green when it came out, but it looks gray, but very warm. We are getting brown leather couches. I can show you a pic when I get home from work.

Valspar Bonsai is a nice gray/beige. I've seen it on decorpad.com
