Ideas for master bath paint color to go with Carrara marble

10 years ago

ok, so I tried to search on Gardenweb for this topic before posting and I am doing probably doing something wrong but got very little threads returned, so I apologize is this has been asked to death before, but need some help to cut down on just how many paint samples I buy! I am looking for a wall color for the master bath which will have a Carrara marble top on a dark walnut vanity. The room does not get a ton of light as only one small window and room is also on the small side. Trim in the house is BM Decorator White, master bedroom color is also yet to be decided, but that room is large and has lot of natural light, I am leaning towards something blue or silver in both rooms but can't get the undertones correct, the master bedroom can be darker, but bath I wanted lighter. SO any suggestions for what I should consider checking out for wall colors? The hallway leading into the master bedroom is most likely going to be revere pewter. I had tried grey owl for master bath but it looks awful next to the marble. Thanks for any suggestions!

We have carrara on our bathroom floors and the shower curb (the shower walls are white, and the shower floor is striped dark greys and blacks). We painted a color I love - its a silvery blue. (the countertop is Ceasarstone Organic White). I've attached a picture. I don't know what color it is, so if you're interested, I'll have to ask my painter (who happens to be around my apartment today).

We have Carrara on top of a medium-to-dark wood vanity and a cousin of Carrara in hexagonal floor tiles. Bathroom walls are BM Gossamer Blue -- not in the grey/silver family, but it looks really lovely with the marble and keeps the room light.

How about:

BM Silver Song 1557
BM Sterling 1591
BM Silvery Moon 1604
BM Winter Solstice 1605

Ok, thanks for the suggestions, will go back to benjamin moore tomorrow and pick up some color strips so can narrow down the actual samples I get. Has anyone seen benjamin moore Silver Grey in same room with Carrara? I saved a picture of a master bedroom on Houzz painted in BM Silver Grey and stare at it all the time thinking how much I like it and wonder if it will work. Have to go back by fabricators to see marble next to colors.
