Our office in the hallway has gray tile. We are wondering what color to paint the walls. At present, the main reception is beige with green and black carpeting the area where you get off the elevator is beige and with gray and white marble tiles....of which you can see the hallway...nothing is matching...can you help?

Giorgina's Answer: With so many different colors in the adjacent areas, you may wish to consider a color that is a few shades darker than white or a light beige color. Beige is a neutral color, which means that it won’t contrast with much of anything. A beige tone will add warmth and give a calming feel to the space.
