11/7/2023 0 Comments Palladian blue paint color match![]() It's a real robin's egg blue type of color which is hard to hate. However… it has been 2 days and I'm starting to really like it. And it's a huge departure from the warmth of the brown I had before. It's not the quiet color that I thought I saw on the paint chip. It has an unexpected intensity that I was not prepared for! When you're in my bedroom now you think "HEY I'M IN A BLUE ROOM". I painted my chocolate brown bedroom which has 11 foot high walls all Benjamin Moore Palladian Blue. There are no guarantees on anything when it goes on the wall with your own lighting.I have to laugh at some of the comments about this color. So try out some pots and see what you think. I expected it to intensify in that small space but it just changed color a bit. In my walk in closet, where my SIL sprayed it for me a few weeks ago, it reads more soft green with only the florescent light and the door closed. In my well-lit (patio slider and big window) bedroom, it looks soft and barely blue. It's a gray but reads either towards blue or green on the walls. Just now, I tied an experiment with BM Ashwood, which is on my master bedroom walls since October. Trust the experts here when they tell you to go less blue, more muted. I like the way it looks but finding the right shade for an interior windowless bath is frustrating. ![]() On the chip it's muted and leaning to green. I covered it over with a Behr shade called Rope. I put the same color on the wall in the main part of the bathroom where I have really good lighting, and the color was too blue. I used Pratt & Lambert's Satin Nickel in my small interior bath/no window. It's time and money well spent when it comes to getting what you want. I usually bite the bullet and buy not only the color I am so sure is perfect, but also something that seems more muted or maybe just my 2nd and 3rd choices. If you are paying painters and want the finished bath to be really pretty, you do need to buy the sample pots and try out your colors. I'm trying to think if it was Magnaverde or some other very astute poster who suggested painting the inside of a shoebox in your chosen color to see how a paint color intensifies when reflected off all four walls. Here is the tile we chose:ĭo you think the Palladian Blue will go well with the tanish color of the tiles? Any other suggestions for a small room with no natural light? It will have a Kohler Memoirs pedestal sink and matching toilet, and a tanish tile floor and tub surround. Is it going to look too aquaish? Too much color for such a small room? I am nervous about Palladian Blue especially since we have no natural light in the bathroom. I always think I am going with the right color.nothing too bold, then when it goes up, the color is so much more than I had thought it would be. I have no idea how to tell cool colors from warm colors, what tones go with what etc.I'm awful at choosing paint. ![]() I was looking for a subtle blueish green(more blue than green though)without being too gray.I had Palladian Blue, Quiet Moments and Woodlawn Blue on my list, but keep going to Palladian Blue. I need to choose a paint color this weekend.painter coming on Tuesday to paint our bathroom.
