It all would depend on the size of your room, what kind of look you are going for and what kind of colors you already have in furniture, floor and window coverings.
To go for a fresh, airy kind of feel I'd use a jeans blue or sage green. For a dramatic look I'd go bold using a bluish burgundy or a deep plum purple. To balance the room out (if you plan on using the color on just one wall) make sure you have some accent pieces in the same color that you can place in the opposite side of the room. This could be pillows, throws, vases, pictures etc.
Just have fun with this and don't let your first impression scare you - the right accent pieces throughout your room make all the difference to pull it all together. Worst case scenario is that you'll paint over it with another color.

You don't say what room these paints are to be used in. Knowing this makes a difference. As an example, one could use a fire engine red but NOT if is to be painted in a bedroom where a more "calming & restful" color would be better suited. If one is wanting to add a dramatic background color to a piece of wall art in an entryway to give a "wow factor" then a knock-your-socks-off color is approprate. It's your wall, choose the color YOU like best. Can you guess, by my name, what color most of my walls are painted???

I am assuming that you are wanting to create a 'feature wall' in the same room as the butter cream walls?
Depending on the size of the wall I would go with a contrasting darker colour, you will need to stick to warmer shades as mixing warm and cool colours, most often leads to disaster. I am thinking a dark olive green or a deep tan colour. It also depends on the colours already in the room eg. furniture. If you want to be really funky there are some great wallpapers around you could wallpaper one wall?

looking for an accent wall color should be easy, but after doing it myself, I know it's not!
So, light yellow. That can go with anything, really.
Terra cotta red or
cerulean blue or
lilac or
periwinkle blue or
grass green or
sage green.
What's your fancy? Get some swatches and pin them to the wall. Look at them for a few days, as the sun moves through the room. The color of terra cotta is different at dusk than at dawn.

antique white or a light sage green would be really pretty. How big is the far wall? You wouldn't want the other color to be overbearing.

White ones could artwork staggering. it is going to save the room searching bright, sparkling and crisp. If all white is too boring stitch on the bottom somewhat of sage colored fabrics. this kind it is going to ancour the curtains to the room. desire this theory helps! solid success!

Personally, I would use white, for a clean, crisp look. You can accent with a light sage green.

Almost any shade of green, a light blue or coral pink.
