Selecting Paint For The Townhome

Sharing all of the paint colors I used in my townhome and the hardest decision choosing the perfect white paint.

So there’s a funny story behind selecting a white paint for the townhouse. You might remember back on instagram stories when I was testing out white paints. What a hard decision. Even as an interior designer – full time, I’m always selecting paints for jobs. Neutral paints are my jam. But there are so many options to choose from. I knew I wanted a warmer toned gray for my doors and trim and white walls. However, I got so stuck on wanting to really brighten up the dark yellow beige color that was on my walls that I went with a white that had a cool/blue undertone… wrong answer! It was so blue and not what I needed (or wanted) at all.

Not to self, if you’re unsure about which while to choose or looking for something specific but not sure how it’ll look in your home.. always go grab some testers and slap it on the wall to decide! Even I ended up testing paints. I ended up with the holy grail of white paints, Sherwin Williams Snowbound. It is my go-to white paint it’s the perfect shade – and it was the perfect white paint for my townhouse.
