I used this color in my so s room. IT HAS DEFINITE BROWN UNDER TONES! That being said I thought the vibe of the off white trim was too modern so i repainted the trim with a blue under toned white. This looks real nice with wood furniture.
I used this color on all the exterior trim & doors on my house. I paired it with Bakers Box which was a slightly cool toned white. I’m getting ready to use it inside on my fireplace mantle.
Geez, in addition to the all coral in my sunroom , I really did not see the future as I started my design in 2023. But my trim is all a custom black. I tried all of the BM and SW on my walls, but I was not satisfied so I did my own custom black. My own secret 90 % dark cocoa sauce. All of my door hardware is 24k gold. As well as plumbing fixtures. Oddly I do a lot of ‘traditional’ design work, but for my home, though using classical architecture principles and custom running trims, I wanted to create fresh and timeless spaces, nodding to the past, but a bit eclectic, I also did a living room in all a dark gray brown sea grass walls with dark brown/gold tone beams and board and batton ceilings, and a rich chocolate brown wood floor, meant to be an art gallery feel, a rest from color, with contrasting gold leaf frames and a focus on the beauty of the art. Your color palette looks a lot like my home, minus my front entry vestibule which I added a bold bright green of the 20s but with a modern twist, displaying vibrant curated art from one artist, and a 24” diamond black and white marble floor.
Love this color. I painted an accent wall in my last house with this color and it’s definitely a chameleon. I always thought it leaned blue but my husband always thought it leaned blue. I loved it and have been plotting where to paint it in my new home.
It's GREY for crying out loud what's wrong with colors after the endless years of dull why not color. We were all stuck in during the pandemic down or not it was a rough time, now we're out mostly...brighten up, lighten up
Lighten the space and add color with art and decor like pillows, blankets, tableware. Having a color on you wall is permanent in the sense that it's a pain in the butt to pain your walls every few months. Neutrals are great for walls so you can add style, personality, or holiday flare with small but impactful decor swaps.
Designers try to eradicate the long-time used color grey. But I think grey stays for more time than designers wanted.😂 I see lots of grey variation. But for bad or good... Grey stayed with us for a long long time. Liked or not. Because this new color is a variation of the grey 😂😂
I have a modest Victorian home. We have had great success with SW westhighland white, BM Aegean Teal, SW Clean Linen and some of the SW mid-range greens and BM dark broody blue tones (low lrv). These might not be perfect for your space but may be starting points, if helpful.
I would love to see a review on BM soot. I was thinking an accent wall in my bedroom, trim in decorator white and the rest of the walls in either Coventry Grey or Stonington Grey. Not sure which would look the best.
I fell in love with Cracked Pepper a few years ago. But I could never decide where to put it after I went with Behr’s Antique Tin as my predominant indoor color, instead. I love Cracked Pepper with Sweet Tea! I may find a place for that, yet!
Well first of all you do a excellent job in your pairings always amazes me. I love the cracked pepper although it may be a tad too light & too grey for my taste, but it can work. I really like the frost! That’s good. Maybe the shoelace but it might be too creamy/ yellow for me. The suede gray is interesting but I don’t really want that together but it looks good. The blue works but it’s too dusty for me. And the peach color is a hard no. I understand that you like warmer colors. But I hate them. They remind me of the 70’s and bad 80’s. Not the fun 80’s but the stuffy middle class women like on Oprah. That said I guess they are trying to bring back beige orange brown yellow cream etc. I guess it’s a little better than it used to be but still irritates me. I guess what I really don’t like is finally a company like Behr appreciates what we’ve been using & saying. They make these wonderful colors and now it’s just going to be homogenized into the boring norm. Which is missing the real vision. But I suppose for some people it would be as far as they could go.
Yes! Love this. I still have many more Smokey blacks left to paint in my house & they are by Behr.
I've been using cracked pepper for accent walls in my house for the past 16 months. Definitely my most favorite color.

Yes! It tends to a read Dark Chocolate in certain warmer lighting. But when I used other cool or daylight spectrum, it looks like a gray.

Great palette! It seems so cozy in all its compilations! I like!
❤ this color -- used it recently. It has a lot of depth to it.

French Colony is a beautiful colour, I had it in my kitchen for a few years.
I love the colors, especially the French Colony. I think it would look awesome in a bathroom.❤
I like all of these colors. Thank you for sharing!
Moody in a half bath with some gold framed art
Just discovered this channel. Got a new subscriber!
House of Valentina's favorite color. 😂
Isn’t that the only colour that they use?🤔🤔
Yes. Actually they use Nightclub more I think.
Agree about HOV
Love the color. Thanks for sharing.
Frost looks really nice
Love cracked pepper...my friend is going to do an accent wall with that color...so moody

I like this! Interesting palette! French Colony is nice!
I would like if you go over Historic paint colors and pairing. Trying to get ideas for my modest Victorian home

Fresh Ground Cracked Pepper! 🤟
Damn these are great color pairings! 😊

Ooooooo, Sweet Tea! Peachy.❤

Black is the presence of all color not void of all color come on now.
You're thinking of white?
Love
love your advise and info, it would help if you could list the names and numbers relating to your chat, thank you!
I love this gutsy colour. Can i buy this brand of paint in the UK London as we don't all live in America!!
I would suggest F&B Downpipe.
@@_wesleyhome_ Thank you.

Спасибо большое! Было очень интересно и познавательно!!!! Обожаю Английский дизайн!!!!
Love it
Like the tea.
Would cracked pepper go with light gray walls n make my small kitchen look bigger?
Don't like it at all, but at least it's better than Benjamin Moore's COTY Raspberry Blush.
I don’t mind a darker color in the right circumstance but it’s dark GRAY and I wish people would just get over GRAY once and for all.
Please! Gray is terrible and is long gone!
That's not black.
Love the frost though! I use polar bear by Behr and it's a perfect white.
Speechless? It’s paint. lol.
Depressing I’ll not ever use it!
Yuk! Yuk! Yuk! No more gray… pleeeeease!! 😩
Oh awful dark!
Nooo
