Blue or Green? Your thoughts please

[RuralDwelling]

Evening.
Looking at changing up my dining room entirely!

Currently light grey walls with a dark grey feature wall ( I know it's a disliked colour but we painted it before the Mrs Hinch craze!)

We have a black glass dining table & chairs (staying) grey units (going) and teal accessories (flowers, lampshades, ornaments etc -will be changed as necessary)

I have now bought an sideboard and tv unit which will only go against the feature wall due to the layout.

The room is north facing so doesn't get much sunlight but the room is 'warm' as it's the hub of the household if you see what I mean.

Would you go dark navy or a dark green in the feature wall? All other walls are being painted a creamy white (not magnolia) and woodwork will be white

I'm really struggling to choose and hoping someone with a keen eye will be able to help me decide!

Photos below are the 2 colours I'm considering and the tv unit I've bought (also matching sideboard)

Thanks in advance 😊

I'd go blue

I posted on your 30 day post the same as this but I agree with @Peppermintz - I think the blue would look much smarter

I’m leaning toward green with the pine. What period is the house from?

I prefer the blue. For green I think it would need to be a deeper shade.

I'm struggling a bit to imagine a black glass table with the pine sideboard. In my mind they are at totally opposing style looks. Also struggling to imagine a tv unit in the dining room. Is it part of your sitting room?

Blue

Definitely blue

Blue. Recently did a wall in dulux ‘sapphire salute’ and it’s gorgeous!

The house is from the early 1800s

Sorry. I should have said the table has a oilskin tablecloth on it constantly (life's too short to clean glass every day!) so I will change the colour of the oilskin accordingly!

The dining room is the hub of the house as downstairs only consists of that and the kitchen...the lounge is upstairs (converted bedroom) and then we've converted the loft into a bedroom also.

If we have guests for a catch up then we all sit at the dining table but when we have friends over for the evening we do use the lounge more hence a television in each room!

Blue.

Both colours are fab. The green you shared is a little acidic for my professional preference and prefer the blue you've picked out. But generally I prefer green. Little greene website show you what other colours their paint works well with. Might be worth a look. Look at colour psychology. Both colours are relaxing, soothing colours. I believe blue can suppress the appetite so maybe go green?!

Green dining rooms and galleries were popular inGeorgian England, but they were generally a more acidic or olive green than the green you have chosen. That looks a very dense and rather unforgiving colour ( it’s very near British racing green?). Green is a very good colour for setting off pictures and ceramics. I’ll try to find a way of adding a shot of a wonderful green dining room which I have kept but not in a’album’

I wouldn't do either of those in a north facing room - they look quite harsh shades. Lots of tips online about colours but here are some paint suggestions www.littlegreene.com/advice-hub/help-with-paint/considering-the-orientation-of-a-space

Have you done testers on the walls? I’d get the tester pots out and paint a large bit of each directly on the wall you’re doing and then look at it during different times of day, with different lights, and see what you think. I’m currently redoing a room and have colours all over the place. Ones I thought I loved initially I completely discounted after seeing them at a different time of day.

We have a room in little Greene hopper which is quite similar to that green. It's really hard to style as the colour changes so much during the day but it's delightfully cosy.

I love green and blue, if you pick the right shades you can’t really go wrong.

As you said it’s a cool room but with a warm feeling - Inchrya blue is shouting out to me.

Green without doubt. I think dark blue has been done to death as much as grey.

Thanks for all your input. I'm going with the a dark green - will post a photo when done 😊
