I am building a house and I have to paint at least 6 closets. Should I just paint them white? Thx!

I paint my closets in fun accent colors offsetting my neutral paint colors; i.e., gray master ensuite, spa blue master closet. Taupe hallway, citron linen closet. Gray green laundry, coral pantry.

White would be the conventional route.

Paint colour for kitchen/dining room?

Any suggestions for a paint colour for a mussel kitchen? I am changing the blinds to white and getting a white oak table with beige leather look chairs. Would a soft white/off white look dirty against white gloss doors (we have five of those doors in the room)? We don't like grey walls but maybe a beige/taupe?

Hi, Please see the link attached; https://www.houzz.ie/hznb/projects/buildtech-hallway-and-stairs-before-and-after-pj-vj~6673682 . This is a renovation of a stairwell, hallway and landing we did recently. As you can see, we also created bespoke paneling for the client and the space itself is quite similar to yours. This may give you an idea of what colour looks well above the paneling. Let us know what you think! Regards, BuildTech.

Hi r recently put down an oak floor in my kitchen and I bill be getting the kitchen units painted soon. I have to hold onto the black countertops for now unfortunately! I was thinking f painting the main part of thr kitchen units ammonite from farrow and ball and maybe an alternative colour for the island? Maybe purbeck stone or worsted or would it be nicer to add a bit of colour like pigeon? Do I stick with ammonite for the walls then too? I am also going to paint a different colour on the wall with the Sideboard to add a bit of charw ter(and I love colour!) any suggestions on all parts welcome please!! Thanks

white or the ceiling color you use will be best as you change wall colors over the years you wont need to paint the closets

I also painted all interior closets white. Reflects the lite and doesn't have to be painted when room is repainted.

I do same as Angel. I paint often and painting closets is such a pain -'takes almost as long as the all the other walls out together. Definitely go white and leave future options open.

This is a tough one. White is the safe choice. The logic is that you can always have some colour in the bedroom if you want. Painting around a closet can be tough and a pain in the ass.

That being said here are three pictures showing different options.

I'm a fan of the wallpaper. Once your clothes are in most of it is covered up so it's not as flashy as it looks when it's empty.

Adding some colour isn't bad too. It just depends on if you are going to stay in your house for ever. Or are you renovating for resale. A boy might not like a pink closet.

Have some fun.

Unless you are painting a walk in closet they typically go white. I have had a couple of clients over the years paint them the same color as the room. if you change the room color you don't want to have to empty the closets.

I'm in my forever home, so I decorate mine -- my closets are a bit of whimsy. But if you're planning for resale, or you just like a clean, crisp feel, you can't go wrong with white!

I'd paint them white but if you want to have some fun, you can pick one closet like the coat closet and paint that a fun "pop" color that still goes with the rest of the colors in the room.
