[quote=Anonymous]Eeehh, unfortunately the only way to pick a white is to bring in paint chips to your house. If you're worried enough about picking the right one that you're putting some research into it (i.e. you didn't just buy "white paint" and be done with it), then it will not suffice to take decorators' random online picks for white paints. I know this from experience. What is the "absolute, universally approved" choice for white looks like a light purple/grey in my house. What was the absolute, best, favorite grey in the world looks like a 1980s hospital blue in my house. How a color looks will depend on: the existing ceiling and trim color, the existing floor color (we painted our house with a crisp white years ago, before refinishing the yellow oak floors - the paint looked yellow, until the floors were changed - then the walls totally changed color against the new floors), your kitchen colors, the type of light you get, the colors outside your window. Just get paint chips and you will have far more success than randomly picking something based on recommendations. [/quote]
