Paint Colors we used in our Remodel


Welcome into our "new" home!  We've been in our home for 9 years and a few years after living here we knew we wanted to do a big remodel.  A lot of the spaces weren't used efficiently and everything was very dated!  The project was a complete overhaul and we didn't have any natural design skill so we enlisted the help of Hayley from HLC Studio.  She knocked it out of the park and we are so thrilled with the finished project.

One of the most frequent questions is about the paint colors Hayley used to create a fresh, classic, warm and rich feel.  Our home was built in the 70's and so we have low ceilings by today's standards.  We also face North and so we don't get a lot of natural light into the rooms.  For those two reasons, Hayley used Chantilly Lace from Benjamin Moore on most of the walls, baseboards, trim and ceilings.  

A funny story was Kevin HATED the "white" when it first went on the walls.  He was beyond skeptical but Hayley was a pro at explaining her rationale.  At the time we still had concrete subfloors and of course not one item of furniture or decor.  It was literally white walls and that was it.  So it looked pretty stark at the time but Hayley explained it was necessary for the ceiling height and lack of light.  As she knew, all the other elements in the house warmed it up.  I am SUPER happy we stuck with it.
