Help choose a colour for my hallway

Please help me choose a colour for our hallway. I’m going mad trying to choose! It’s our first time decorating this hall and the lighting is making the paint appear very dark or reddish
It’s a north facing hallway. Not much natural light.
(skimming stone above the door. Followed by welcome white valspar, bottom is pointing)
on the swatch wall we have timeless, goose feathers. Almond white. Pointing. Schoolhouse white. Drop cloth. Welcome white. Skimming stone. )
here you can see goose feathers is quite dark. Timeless is barely visible. Schoolhouse is a strange plaster colour but this one is a valspar dupe. Skimming stone is darker than I expected.
I would like the hallway to be bright, it’s dull at the moment with the white as the light from the window makes it look blue grey

We have used nutmeg white and would use it again. It has the warmth of Timeless which I also think might work for you OP.

Nutmeg white is what we have just used for our North facing hall. It looks lovely.

I like the look of almond white best.

Get a sample of Craig and Rose
1829 Adam Cream. It’s one of those magical colours that seems to glow and give out light. Don’t be put off when you look it up in a chart, it needs to be seen in reality.
