Media Room Update - need a paint color
+6
We have made some progress on our media room. But we can't decide on a paint color. There is no natural light so we don't think we want to go too dark. But it's a media room so we don't want to go too light to prevent glare from the tv. We've considered a wet cement color as well as darker grays and taupes. We just can't decide on a particular color.
Any suggestions?

This is what we started with, so anything is an improvement . . . Lol.
We removed wallpaper, shackled, primed and ready for paint.
The flooring we are putting in is a toasted hickory.
I plan to redo this desk with PolyShades Tudor for a TV console. I don't want to cover the wood grain but I do want to eliminate the orange-y finish it has currently.

That should say spackled not shackled but I can't figure out how to edit it.

Maybe a relaxing color like a light green or turquoise?

How about Ben Moore's Van Courtland Blue (#HC145) or Old Salem Gray (#HC94). Then use Bavarian Cream (#2146-70) on the trim. Will make the room both cozy and elegant. Good luck!

First of all, I love your desk the way it is. as for the wall color, what other colors o you have in the room? Fabrics, pictures, pillows. You may want to pick one that ocmpliments other items in the room.

Gray is the new tan as far as neutrals go right now. I would go with a medium (not light but not dark) taupish-gray to keep some light but also make it easy to watch tv, games, etc. You can always add more lighting to brighten it when you need to also.
