Paint colour for west facing living room …

[HelloSunshine100]

Any suggestions/ recommendations for paint colours you have used in west facing rooms

thanks!

I mainly paint things green 😅

Taupe with a dusting of rainbow lacquer. It'll look beautiful when the sun sets/rises, or even in between!

Lick has a paint colour quiz that might help you decide:

I'd recommend their samples. I recently decorated my hallway (north west facing) with Lick grey 01. It's a nice colour but I regret not considering how I wanted my home to make me feel (warm and cosy).

If I were to choose again, I'd go for something like Mylands peach flesh pink no. 268.

Stay away from Magnolia and you are good!

We have F&B "Pointing" in our south-west facing living room and kitchen. I wasn't sure when the paint specialist suggested it but it looks great with loads of plants etc. and is v. calm and leaves the focus on the natural light not the walls

Elk Antler by Valspar

I have that in my living room and love it. It’s very calming and surprisingly bright as well.

I just painted my west facing living room navy blue and I love it. If I hadn’t gone dark I would’ve gone for something like Pale Aquamarine by Little Greene which my aunt has and is beautiful.

We have Amber Queen 5 by Dulux which is a subtle peachy pink. The previous owners had bright marigold yellow which did not work at all.
