Best paint color for dining room

[Anonymous]

I'm the navy poster above. This isn't a dining room but this is the combination I was imagining--a grayed-out navy above, white below.

Or what about SW Rainstorm or Tempe Star if you want more blue?

Or Dark Night?

I could look at paint chips all day.

Love that. The grasscloth would add some nice texture.

OP here. I do like that navy but it's a little dark. Any other recs for colors or shades I'm not thinking of? I had a color decorator come and give me "whole house colors" that I'm going off of. I don't want to do every room different colors and I want them all to coordinate and flow. A few other small rooms are already gauntlet gray as well as my front door. The living room is "mindful gray" (a few shades lighter than gauntlet, but same tones), but it's very light because we have tons of windows.

I probably will do silk drapes. I love silk, especially with good slubbing! I like the way it falls and how heavy it is.

what about sw dovetail - it's one shade lighter than gauntlet; two shades lighter than mindful.

or a blue a few shades darker than the light blue you're using in the curtains/next room? just an example, sw meditative - but find the tone that works best.
