For this family in the Prospect Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, we custom cut and installed classy new wall paneling on one side. That was painted with Benjamin Moore’s Silent Night, a medium gray with a touch of dignity. The doors, frames and walls were then covered with Benjamin Moore’s Pelican Gray, the next shade lighter. We used eggshell and satin finish paints for easy cleaning, and the whole family finds going out and coming home much more attractive and enjoyable.

Brooklyn Historic House Painter

The historic neighborhoods in New York City are loaded with character and architecture that melds old and new, vintage with modern. As one family was preparing to move into a charming house constructed in the late 1800s, they had the foresight to paint ahead of time while spaces were empty. This room sports a stunning original hardwood floor, which would have been common in the new build more than a century ago.

Picture rail molding near ceilings serves many purposes, hanging art from wires among them. It lends an antique style element along with the visual benefit of making the ceiling appear larger. The contemporary, monochromatic strategy of painting the trim and baseboards the same as the walls creates a seamless warmth which can be complemented comfortably with wall decor, fabrics and furnishings. This Sherwin-Williams Niebla Azul is a sophisticated grayish-blue with green undertones. The room evokes dignity and safety, and the neighborhood boasts one of the most iconic parks in the Big Apple. Welcome home.

This family selected Behr Emergency Zone for the orange. Talk about excitement! This unique blend of primary colors red and yellow delivers large for every season and offers balance, enthusiasm and a flamboyant flair, minus any emergency.
