What colors would look good in a living room? Dinning room? And Kitchen?
We are going to be painting our house sometime soon we hope. I can’t figure out what colors we should use. Well actually our dinning room and kitchen our attached to each other so whatever I paint the dinning room the kitchen will more then likely be the same color. Can someone suggest some colors please!
Also we have tan colored floors and furniture in our living room and light colored flooring and counters in the kitchen and a oak colored wood for the kitchen (dinning room) table.
Well actually all the rooms our attached to each other in a way but I would like to do the living room a different color then the dinning room.
My husband was thinking that we could go to one end of the wall then start the other color at the wall. Our dinning room wall and living room wall run in together. The floors separate them though, which I was thinking we could stop the color there and go to the other color we like. What do you think would look better that way?
I kinda like the lighter colors.
Also I love the blues but I think I maybe doing to much blues … my daughter’s room is the only room so far that isn’t going to be blue. My son’s room is going to be light blue, my husband and I’s bedroom is going to be dark blue. I keep looking at different blues for the living room too but I’m afraid I’m doing to many blues. Not to mention the siding on our house is blue.

play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find something 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:

What would you think of a color called "silver strand" (# 7057) for the living room? And then maybe a pale purple like "Euphoric Lilac" (# 6835) for the kitchen & dining room?
Well, for your dining room, I personally like this color, (like a deep rose red) heres the link: http://mainebows.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/deep-rose-red-pocket-sq-tb.jpg
And for your living room..i would go with a sage green.. like this…

Reds would look great in all three rooms. A burnt red looks great in a dining room and would match the oak well and darken the light surfaces a little plus its great for entertaining and decorating too. If you want something different for the living room, yet that will still coordinate, try playing with some browns and blues, paint the walls a tan, and use lots of nice chocolate brown and light blue accents, it looks great. Or, you could also stay with the red and use lots of warm tones.
Good luck!
