What is the current color? Are you tired of the current or simply want a new look,?

Definitely not white.
Hall could be a pale warm yellow.
Bedrooms could be beige or cream. Wallpaper would be nice.

White is still the most popular choice. It looks clean and modern.

For a modern space being sold soon? No

The hallway is a very very pale icy blue with a little sheen to it. Sounds terrible but it’s actually nice. But it’s been there for 15 years since our architect suggested the color when we remodeled.

The bedrooms are all versions of pale green/sage. I picked them and they look awful. I painted trim and closets white and I probably will paint everything all the same this time. These bedrooms are all tiny.

I recently used Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee, and getting lots of compliments on it. It seems to go with many wood colors.

Not yellow!

Go with a nice white. Nothing too stark or chalky.

I personally don't like Swiss Coffee, think it looks too muddy, but I guess it depends on the light. But please don't paint use any form of beige, OP. Often looks dated and dreary.

My favorite white is White Dove, but it definitely depends on the light. I'd probably keep the blue hall and test WD in the bedrooms.

+1. We used the aforementioned SW Accessible Beige (a griege color) last year when we sold. I thought it was a little dark but any of those griege-y neutrals would be good, and anything in the SW/BM paint families should wear well enough for a year or two. Just do them all the same color so it flows.

Op. This is what ChatGPT suggested and it actually looks very nice. That or one color lighter- pale oak. I think I’m going with something more colorful in the hallways, and I’ll just repaint those if I have to.

I don’t have a realtor obviously. I’m not selling for awhile

Use a neutral beige or white. No wallpaper or colors.

I'm seeing a lot of warm whites in house listings. What I'm not seeing is gray. There is no gray anywhere in houses that look like they have been freshly painted the same color throughout. Don't get me wrong, there is definitely still gray in houses that were probably painted in the past 10 years, but the ones that look like they are freshly painted are almost all white. Maybe a few pale beiges.

Greige is out. Warm whites are in.

Yuck no. It looks dated.
