      I 100% agree wanted my hallway In my small apartment to feel very moody so I opted for a green dark ivy color almost emerald but a little darker. I painted a huge wall arch and a circle with it and I out wall shelves inside the circle needless to say I'm absolutly in love ! I've just finished my living room and decided to go all neutral and beige and cream with rattan and wicker pieces but I am already feeling that its very bland so I've mixed up my own mint green its a very vibrant mint to go on the wall were the sofa will be ;) i will just add the same color cushions and get a new rug to give it a refresh and whole new look 😀 .

It's a bold color but it's not TOO much. It's so excellent and I'm thrilled you gave it some attention.

    Hey, James, great series. You missed the chance for a history lesson.
    Salamander is durn close to what we old Southerners know as Charleston Green.
    Yup, as in South Carolina. And the best front door color ever.
    Enjoy.

    Yessss! 💓 Just finished painting our informal living room Essex Green -- I'm talking ceilings, trim, walls-- EVERYTHING! Thankfully we have large south facing windows but even still it creates such a great cocktail lounge mood that's almost black at night but a beautiful dynamic green during the daytime 👌

    I loved them all. I inherited the home I grew up in and my mother loved green so much practically the whole house is a sage green. Living room, dining room, and kitchen. At first I was going to repaint but actually the color is calming and surprisingly neutral. Since the paint is in great shape I'm going with it. If I had to choose I guess my two favorites in the video are budding green and salamander. Love these videos.

      @@thepaintpeople Please can you help me? xxxx. I love green and want to make my small living room into a cozy den to watch tv in. Which tone of green would be good in a small living room. When I went to Ikea they had a deep burgundy room with a tv in in and a dark sofa, and I loved it, as very cozy, but I prefer green to red but still want that cozy dark feeling. My adult autistic son really struggles mentally and was a missing person for 5 years, and I know that green is very calming. I want to make a room that he will love to sit in and watch films with me,. Can you help me. I live in the UK and cannot only get paints from B and Q and Dulux. Thankyou xx

    Our open space entryway/living room/dining room is an old SW Martha Stewart color very, very close to Antique Jade-maybe just a little lighter and a speck cooler. (Edited: I found the old can. It’s name is Milk Pail 8055. It’s been over 15 years, wonder if it’s still even good....) Still love it, gets tons of compliments. Looks great with both crisp white or very slightly softer white trim, our terracotta brick fireplace, and medium-dark wood furniture. One of my best paint choices ever, would totally do it again.

    I painted 90% of a small 600 sq ft condo in CC-640 Blue Grass because I wanted a robins egg blue and the store rep recommended it- it was ALMOST perfect (it looks nothing like the paintchip!) but it vibrated slightly green all day in the bright sun bbut photographed as light teal and was acented easily with teal and aquamarine accent items and it gave me colour fatigue. I wish I had gone with Palladian Blue instead but I never could give up the Blue Grass! It drove me crazy but I loved it so much as well!

BUT I’m stuck! Having trouble deciding on an off white for mostly north facing walls in a new built and a warm white trim color.

    What a great job you do..........so informative! I always look forward to a new episode. I am presently trying to decide a neutral color for my entire home. It's a small home so I think one color would be the best way to go. I don't like red, orange, yellow or purply undertones. Antique jade and guilford green look so calming to me (not for the entire house.) Maybe a bedroom and bathroom. I am buying an oatmeal color sofa so I would like the living room/dining areas to be neutral. My kitchen has those awful builder grade orangey oak cabinets. I am not sure if it was one of your episodes but a green was shown. I did try to find the episode. I always have a terrible time picking out paint but I know that I am not alone.

I think guildford green might work, but I was also thinking something darker for the bedroom...any suggestions? I'm not sure if I want to go in a minty sage direction or browner tone, but I like the idea of a masculine green/grey. It's currently a chamois leather brown color for 18+ years and time for change! The front room has been shark grey for years with my honey brown wood trim which I love. but this is why I didn't want to just use grey again for my room. cheers for any response. keep up the great work on these videos! :)

    Love all these greens. I've moved into a house with an accent colour of Ashwood Moss (bm1484) with an LRV of 9.4. It's really great but I want a better offwhite wall colour. Simply White or Cotton Balls would both be good?

    A friend wants to brighten her salamander green living room. What colors can we use, without having to paint the entire room?

    How does it compare to BM Black Forest Green? I’m trying to decide between Salamander and Black Forest Green for my mud room.
