Hello and HELP! we recently ordered SW Shoji for our new build and it’s on the walls. The trim and cabinet color we initially thought we would use was Pure White. I am having second thoughts because it seems a bit harsh. We mostly have south facing windows. I want enough distance between the 2 colors to get a distinction. My cabinets are quite dark and floors are a mid tone LVP with some movement in warm tones. Can you recommend another color white?
Hi Denise! Check out both Cheviot SW 9503 and White Snow SW 954 for other white options to be paired with your SW 7041 Shoji White. Thanks again!
What do you think of Shoji White for trim/doors with Shiitake kitchen cabinets and Evergreen Fog on the walls in an open concept kitchen/dining/living? I want cozy, warm feel in a craftsman style.
Hi April! Shoji White may look a little drab or gloomy next to Shitake and Evergreen Fog. Consider instead a cleaner white for your trim. Look at:
Alabaster SW 7008
Greek Villa SW 7551
It is always best to look at color in your lighting. Order some free sample chips from our website to determine which color will work best for you.
