Suggestions for dinning room/farrow & ball paint

[morningdove]

I'm painting the LR Cornforth White. Charleston Gray I will be using in either the hallway(dimly lit) or in my dinning room(east) . The pair looks awesome together. It's an open floor plan. The tester pots that don't work are skimming stone, elephants breath, french gray, smoked trout, blackened & Hardwick white. Out of that group hardwick white works the best, but I'm not thrilled. I love color but want it all to flow nor be to cold. Would any of you lovely ladies have any suggestions? Thanks so very much.

Oops, I wanted to add that Harwick white appears more sagey than anything. I'm thinking there must be a better choice than HW. Thanks again.

Do you mean the living room and dining room are all open plan? if so why not continue with Cornforth White? Why not anyway to avoid having lots of different shades of sludgy white (meant nicely natch).

Cheering you on with the Charleston hallway! Excellent.

Agnesbligg, thank you so much for the suggestion. I bought the fan deck for $35 but the chips weren't large enough for me to make a decision. Just curious how many sample pots have u bought. I'm afraid to say I bought 22. Just found out today they sell a 8 x 11 binder that u can rip out & post on wall for$140. (Cheaper than the pots and far less hassle--3 to 4 hrs. round trip to get the showrm & don't have to paint the poster boards. (sigh). Have a sweet night.
