3 of course.

Sherwin/williams has a paint program, but it's expensive and I haven't seen a crack for it.

Of course it's the homeowner's preference of colors so this could be done using many other choices, I just happen to like merlot against tan.

4 is great, cept it looks like a diner, maybe an orange... burnt umber. Slight brighter than the tan, and I like the WHITE offset.

Re: Your Opinion On Ceiling Color For Visually Raising Or Lowering Effect


I like the accent wall. Option 4 does seem intrigueing. I also think option 4 represents the line as too how many colours to have with an eye shot. 1 more colour might be one too much...

The base cabinets and appliances are going to change the looks quite a bit too.
