I am sick of white walls
Same. I’ve decided to do at least one mural in each room to live the place up more. I might paint my bedroom ceiling to look like space and stick some of those glow in the dark stars up there lol
Ooh, is there an art Lemmy you’d post that on? I love murals and have done a few myself. I will say they take a long time just to get the paint up on the wall. The creative part isn’t so hard, just getting that volume of paint up there is time consuming af
Honestly this. I began calling any white offshoot simply “Dirty white”. Bring color into my life, I beg you…sadly, I live in small flat, so dark colors ain’t an option.
I work at a hardware store and I mix paint. I see shit like this every single day.
What “Swiss Coffe”?
A coffe from Switzerland
Booh! Foul play!
Judging from this picture, I’m assuming it’s 99.9% milk.
maybe shes got that extra cone so her color differentiation is greater
Now let’s see Paul Allen’s wall.
Look at that subtle warm white colouring. The tasteful edge detailing. Oh my God, it even has aligned brush strokes!
I can’t tell is it’s the same color or not, but switching from a semi-gloss to a flat or eggshell will definitely make a difference.
Women see more colors than men.
The results of this study showed that overall, females gave more correct responses (P < 0.001) and also took less time (P < 0.01) than males. Color wise also, females gave more correct responses especially for red (P < .001) and green color (P < 0.01). The conclusion states that the females can see more shades of colors than males.
So she can go get the paint.
I’ll always upvote a Red Dwarf reference o7

It’s obviously a warmer white compared to the clinical colder white they have currently. Warmer colours just feel more homely. I wouldn’t want a cold officey white in my house
This isn’t a painting problem. This is a lighting problem
It can be both, warm lights don’t massively affect how cold/warm something is compared to other objects
The light is clearly a cold light, and the reflection magnifies that effect. The sample is much less reflective.
I’m no expert but, wouldn’t this be the sheen/finish of the paint itself?
It looks to me like the only difference is that the card is flatter than the wall
It looks like it might be slightly a slightly warmer tone to me
Definitely, it’s clearly different, warmer white. Contrast will probably be bigger when painted.
The card is a warm white.
The wall is some kind of horrible greenish blue speckled mess.
Make sure you use a good coat of primer so that the old color doesn’t show through. 😉
Once over dust, twice over rust
What does this mean. 🤔
My friend who was in the navy said that was his and his crewmates slogan when cleaning the ship. They just paint it instead of clean
They’re clearly different, even under the bad lightning.
The wall is made using a very brightly white plaster.
On the other hand your sample is more muted drawing a bit toward some sort of warm brown.
Some better lighting would help, for sure. OP’s wife is clearly trying to use gaslighting, and it’s just not working.
Wall has a cold, blue tone to me. Warmer cream tone is king.
I think the blue tone is from a shitty LED bulb
…then it would cast on both the sample and the wall… so the sample is still a warmer color
You can see golden crust forming on the jpeg already. Don’t look away or it’ll get fry too deep
Nice, can do jack shit and tell her you made the change and you won’t even be lying.
