What color matches good with seafoam green?

Question

im looking to paint my bathroom and the tiles in there are seafoam green, i wanna keep it tiled that color but with the white walls it looks like a motel bathroom, what color would look really sharp with seafoam green?

Answer 1

Aqua blue would be perfect. It's in the same family as your green, but has more of a blue tint and will balance it without being too "matchy-matchy".

Answer 2

White trim would work. And sand-colored (beige or light tan) accents would go with it. Also a sky blue. Just think about being at the beach. The sand, sky, and any clouds would go well with the ocean. So, they would go together well in a painted room. Just be careful not to get too dark of a seafoam green. It might look nice on a paint sample ship, but it could be overbearing on a whole wall.

Answer 3

Match the tile. If you have a piece of the tile you can take it to Lowes or Home Depot - they have a color eye machine/device. They put the tile or paint swatch/ sample under the eye and it gives the operator a code, tells him what colors to mix in order to match. Or complement the tile. Once the paint tecnician at the hardware store knows the color from the above color eye process, he can go to a color wheel and provide a complementary color. Usualy this is a color on the exact opposite of the color wheel. Match and Lighten the color - match the tile color and then have the paint technician lighten up the color -- this will create a gradation of sorts. Seafoam is a great color and I would match the color and maybe go a little lighter. If you live in South Beach Miami then go flamingo pink.

Answer 5

Ivory is nice, without taking away from the green tones. or a shade of the green that is just lighter than the tiles. or you could do a combination, ivory walls with a color wash rubbed over it with the seafoam green ... or even tuscan look with a brown color wash...

Answer 6

Teal , Pale Yellow, Tan (sand color) or Beige. just go to your local paint store or Wal-Mart paint Dept. and get several paint sample cards bring them home and tape the up next to the tile and stand back and look at them together and see which you like ..play around with colors sometimes a color you would not expect will look great.

Answer 7

Peach

Answer 8

Tan or a light beige. Something neutral to offset the color. I think if you do peach it will look very tropical. But if that's what you're going for....

Answer 9

Use a color wheel. Use the color opposite the closest green to your color. Or use two colors that make a triangle with your color. Or you can use two lighter greens.

Answer 10

Dark brown
