What are your hall of fame paint colors and wallpapers that you absolutely love living with day in and day out? Real photos if possible!! Am interested in everything but especially curious about entrance areas and hallways, dining rooms, bathrooms, and for rooms that get a lot of good sunlight! Thank you!!

A warm, soothing white ish. Goes great with warm wood tones. My current house has it on every wall (but I did 75% strength to mellow it a bit). My old house, which had a lot more wood trim, I did at full strength. Feels great in morning/afternoon light. Learned about it from Lauren Liess (my fave designer) and haven’t looked back. (Note that this is very different from the paint of the same name at sherwin Williams. Not the same at all!)

A second vote for Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee. It looks fantastic in a variety of lights and plays nice with historic shellacked wood trim. It also works great in sloped ceiling attic situations.

It will look so yellow when you are halfway through but stay the course! The end result is so good and not yellow at all, just neutral warm and lovely white. This is the third house we've used it on and it works every time.
