[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thanks all.  Comments are all over the place, but generally make me feel better about the choice.  With the dark wood floors and some of our colorful rugs and paintings, I think it will soon look right.  The family room actually looks a lot like 10:32's second photo (and thanks for the photos - v. helpful).  Our furniture is not bright but neither is it white or neutral either, so it's not like an all white house, just all white walls/trim/ceiling.  I'm interested by several comments about not using the same white on wall and trim - it seems to me that it would be hard to use different shades of white - wouldn't they look funny, like something is off?  We just planned to use different finishes - matt on ceiling, eggshell on walls and semigloss on trim, but all the same shade (BM Dove White).[/quote]

OP, I love the all white look. But I don't think anyone will notice the change in finishes once everything is moved in. Most designers use a bright white on the trim and off white on the walls. If you like a colder palate, go for a cool white, or if you like warm, go for warmer tones. You can bring a sample of your furniture color to BM and they will help you.  I love the look![/quote]

Designers aren't doing that now; the trend is to paint everything same color. As OP said, eggshell on the walls and semigloss trim. Go for it! [/quote]
