Neutral White and Gray Entry Project Description
I live in a community of cookie-cutter homes. I want to update the entry in a way that separates it from the entry of all the others in the neighborhood. My plan is to switch the banister, light fixture and add some architectural detail. I need help selecting a paint color (a nice grey) Dimensions

Hallway/Entry:
Since your room is smaller using a light and pale color will enhance the light and the space in your room
For your main color, we chose to use gray because it is neutral and seen as elegant and classy. It compliments many colors such as white, blue, and yellow and works well as part of a color scheme in any room.
Use a matte finish paint (fin flannel gray) because it will be helpful in camouflaging those surface imperfections such as bumps and cracks as it does not reflect light. Just be careful because matte finish is more difficult to clean. You may also need to touch up scratches or marks by adding more of the same paint in the future. Use a satin finish paint (fin polar bear) which has a bit more gloss than eggshell finish and is a little smoother. This finish is often used for windows, doors, trim, and ceilings, but can also be ideal walls in kids’ rooms, bathrooms, kitchens and other high-traffic areas because it is easier to clean than eggshell finish.
