*** I want to paint my living room/dining room a bluish/grayish color ...

should I keep it light or bold?

I am going to put white molding up. I have a beige couch already and my dining set is dark wood ...

Do you think this would look nice???

What color do you think I should use?

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!

Anyone else do this?

UPDATE WITH QUESTION*******
I saw picture of BM ADAGIO and I really like it ... what do you think of it for the living room dining area????

Thanks for the poster who recommended it!

BM Adagio is a really nice shade of grey/blue. It was a Fall 2006 Pottery Barn color. You can probably check it out on their website. I used the color in my bedroom. I *think* Camacho also used it in her house.

i just learned that when you do bold colors and have white as accent colors, that the eye is drawn to the white, which is why it "pops". you really don't pay attention to the bold color, but the white.
i learned that on A&Es sell this house! yesterday.
i love these shows.
