FL great room wall color suggestions

Hi! Please suggest a wall paint color for this room The other walls are mostly windows with views of the pool and golf course. The adjacent kitchen was recently painted with Benjamin Moore Titanium. Thanks! Karen

with lots of windows, I'd suggest brining a little natue indoors to complement your view. Benjamin Moore's historical colors have some lovely options. The three I'd recommend are Yarmouth Blue (a pale silvery blue), Wythe Blue (slight green/blue undertones) and Boothbay Gray, (a cloud-like hue) which is a deeper shade of the Titanium in your kitchen. These would all be soft, relaxing, elegant colors. Not knowing what your trim colr or accent colos are, that's the best I can do! Good luck!

Yes, this is what I had in mind too. I like all of these colors. The trim needs paint as well. I thought I would stay with trim similar to the kitchen cabinets which are a creamy white. I have to say Titanium changes so much depending on light, but in shades of pale blue-green gray. Thanks very much for your time and consideration. This helps a great deal.

I started painting yesterday with Palladian blue. I thought Wythe or Boothbay would be much too dark and Yarmouth lacked green overtones. However the Palladian looks very aqua and not elegant or rich as so many reviews indicated. I think I need to move - fast- to an OC shade. As mentioned I have used Titanium (which looks minty to pale aqua in this house) and Gray Owl in the MBR. I like both, but can't say they look great juxtaposed. With Titanium in the kitchen next to this room, any OC suggestions would be appreciated.
