The tacit point is that humans can try something other than white trim, as exemplified by the picture.


Show me something other than black or white trim, that looks good

Semigloss is better for the wood trim, no?

^ that looks nice but the large majority of people don't have the type of home or decor to pull that off.

Because repainting all the trim each time I want to change a wall color would be a nightmare.

Because I like the way it looks and the semi gloss is easy to clean.

Frankly, I consider myself lucky that I managed to convince my husband to put any color up on the wall.

Or have trim painted with different colors depending on the wall color? Or a bold (or, alternatively, pastel) color for both trim and wall?

And why semigloss trim? One could play with different textures, not just semigloss. It looks like a religion, "thou shall have white semigloss trim."


Ah. Yay! So you're that person when I am looking through listings and think to myself "what the hell were they thinking?" Nice to finally meet you! Tell me more about yourself.

Yep, I have pale pastels on my walls and ceilings and glossy cream trim.

That's how I like it.
