What color to paint my room .?

Question

I just painted my room dark blue with hot pink stripe. but now we are moving and Im going to have a new room so I was thinking I proabley will go with a whole diiferent paint this time . I want something subtle like this time. My choices are either a peach light yellow or a dark purple. any thoughts?

Answer 1

Peach is a flattering color. It is also easy to match with other colors.

Yellow is the least flattering color of all. It makes a person look

sick. Dark purple would make your whole room dark.

It's really up to you. But since you asked, I think peach would be

perfect.

Answer 2

peach would be nice but a very light peach color, or even very light pink. if you go with a purple don't go with a dark dark purple. go more with a lavendar or light purple ;)

check out this picture, :P

those colors look very good together. and if ur thinking of doing stripes. maybe suggest this :D

Answer 3

I have peach in one of my rooms and it's a beautiful color. Really catches the sun. I split the room in half with white chair rail molding (36" high) and put peach on top and terra cotta on the bottom.

play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find colors that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think "Pearly white" (# 7009) with a "blackberry" (# 7577) stripe would look terrific.

You can also take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions & for $5 they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.

Answer 5

Think about a pale pink or pale peach, or somewhere in between. It goes with every other color in the rainbow. Paint your woodwork light cream or white. In painting the walls this color, not only is it pretty, you can change out your accessories  over and over without changing the paint color. Jazz it up by painting a stripe in a darker color in the same family. If you paint a stripe wide enough horizontally around the room, use it as a accent boarder and hang framed pictures inside the stripe. hope this helps.
