Small bathrooms amplify whatever color is on the wall, which makes the choice more consequential than it first appears. Mink has enough depth to register without closing the room in, and it plays well with white subway tile or warm wood accents.

2 Living Room Photos

When applied to living room walls, Mink creates a sense of "visual quiet." It eliminates the erratic shadows found in busier spaces, instead providing a steady, rhythmic tone that ties together disparate furniture styles. It's the common thread that makes a room full of heirlooms and modern pieces feel like a cohesive collection.
