Want to paint your living room walls? Even before you even pick up a paint roller, you’ve got a lot of work to do. Perhaps the most difficult part of painting is simply choosing the right colour. The options overwhelm. Sherwin-Williams has about 1,500 shades of paint. Benjamin Moore offers more than 3,000. That’s enough paint chips to keep you dithering for months. Just want white? It’s still not easy: White’s not really even a colour, but Benjamin Moore makes about 150 shades of it. There’s Simply White, the company’s 2016 colour of the year. Or Snow White. White Dove. Chantilly Lace. Wedding Veil. Mayonnaise (really). “I think the first step is to realize it’s overwhelming,” says designer Veronica Solomon, who sometimes consults with clients who just want her advice about paint colours. People “usually know what they don’t like, but they don’t know what colour to choose.” How do you wade through dozens of taupes, a rainbow of reds and more than 50 shades of gray? We asked designers and specialists to help us simplify the decision-making process. They’ve offered their tips for narrowing down a paint

colour, whether you’re painting an accent wall or the entire house. 1. Look -- really look -- at your space. “One of the most difficult things is to select paint colours for yourself,” said interior designer Jody Tandy. You get used to how your house looks, and then it’s difficult to imagine it any other way. But try looking at your space with fresh eyes, as if you’re walking into a stranger’s house on a home tour. “Walk through the house,” Tandy said. “Think about what you’re feeling, whether some spaces are lighter or darker. What is it that you want to feel different?” Maybe you want the bedroom to feel more calm, or you want the hallway to not be so dark. Start there. 2. Find your colour inspiration. Whatever you do, don’t head straight for the paint store and stare at the wall of paint chips. Instead, look around again -- this time at the objects in your home. Think about the ones that make you feel best and take colour cues from that. Think about your favorite rug, a piece of art you love, or the colour of clothing you wear most often. “You love them for a reason,” says Jackie Jordan, director of colour marketing for Sherwin-Williams.

JANUARY 18 – 22, 2016

Choosing colour may be the toughest part PAINT, from Page 6 Tear pictures out of magazines, pin them on Pinterest, or save photos on Houzz.com. “Just grab anything that appeals to you — anything that makes you stop for more than a couple of seconds,” says Andrea Magno, a colour and design expert for Benjamin Moore. 3. Hone in on the shades you prefer — and rule out the ones that won’t work. Like blue but not wild about turquoise? Wipe out the blues that have green undertones. “Some of the blues are going to be a little warmer, a little cooler, some will be more toward green,” Magno said. Eliminate the ones you’re not drawn to, and soon, she said, “you can bring it down to, say, three or four strip chips that are more or less where you want to be.” 4. Try the colours on your walls. When you get the list down to three, buy pint-size samples (they’re usually less than $10) and paint at least a 24-inch-by-36-inch square on the wall, Jordan recommends. Better yet, paint something else so you can move it around; Tandy uses big sheets of watercolour paper or cheap canvases from a craft store. “Everybody’s lighting is different, and that colour will change,” she said. You’ll

Ingultuus caedo, occierus, cone erissena publiae es? O teravo, quas virma, spicips, nicastemod restistret; inam lossigna, conti, quam manterdi isterit, con

realize that green gets way too yellow in the morning light, or that the rust colour you loved at the store is far too dark. Try the colour in different places, Jordan said. Put that square of paint next to the trim around your door. Put it behind the curtains, the sofa, a piece of art. Look at it in daylight, then check it again under artificial light. “Move it from one wall to the next,” she said. “Depending on the light you have, that will change.” 5. Consider the cautious colours first, then decide how bold you want to be. Tandy is a big advocate of bold colour -- her

own home has a different bright hue on almost every wall — but even she starts her clients out at the timid end of the paint deck. She’ll show them a Sherwin-Williams collection called “Fundamentally Neutral,” a group of colours with a neutral base that “most people feel good about.” It might be a shade of green, but it’s one that has a lot of gray in it. “If they want bolder colour, then I’ll shift into the next section,” Tandy said -- colours that contain less gray and beige. If they’re comfortable with more, she’ll pull out the company’s “Energetic Brights” selection

and go a step further. “You have to be very careful,” though, she said; bright orange or green might look great on your favorite blouse, but not so great on your walls. Her tip: If you like bright colours but you’re unsure, try one in a small space. “You can try an accent wall,” she said. “Then you’ll know how much colour you can take -- and maybe get the courage to paint more walls.” A powder room is another good space to experiment. 6. Don’t think of neutrals as a copout. One of the best-selling Sherwin-Williams paint colours is called Accessible Beige. It sounds like the most boring colour in the world, but that’s not necessarily true, Jordan said. “Whites, off-white, beiges — they’ve been our top-sellers for as long as I can remember,” says Jordan, who’s been at Sherwin-Williams for 30 years -- and there’s a good reason for that. “We are so inundated with colour,” she said, along with plenty of other stimuli, from traffic to gadgets. “This idea of escaping to (your) home and having it be a soothing, relaxing, meditative environment is making us look toward those colours that are a little more calming.” Besides that, Scandinavian design is hot right now, Jordan points out —

and that means minimalism, clean lines and lots of white. 7. Take cues from the rest of the room. Look at the floor, the furniture, the accessories already in place. Solomon recently helped a client who’d just bought a fixer-upper; she wanted to paint the walls, but she couldn’t afford to replace the dated flooring, a gray-andgreen tile that limited her colour options. Solomon helped her find a neutral, “taupe-y” shade that blended with the tile. That flooring limited the options, but Solomon didn’t let that make the house look boring. She added a pop of colour in the dining room with a gray-blue accent wall. And for the powder room, Solomon opted for wide horizontal stripes, two neutrals that blended with the floor and each other. “It was tone on tone,” she said. “It wasn’t a huge, bold, in-yourface statement,” but it made the room look fresh and updated. 8. Once you’ve chosen a colour, give it some backup. Did you choose a new hue? Own it. For a designer’s touch, “reinforce” your selection by using it elsewhere in the house, Tandy says. “Make sure you repeat that colour selection,” she said. If you select a soothing blue for the walls, for example, it’ll be pleasing to the eye when that blue also shows up in a painting.
