This week’s Color Inspiration Series takes us to a stunning retirement home in a vibrant 55+ community where timeless neutrals meet bold accents. Erin from Polson Painting walks us through a custom color transformation inspired by a model home—but with added personality and flow throughout.
The homeowner wanted her new space to feel fresh and bright, modeled after a home she loved online. Erin helped refine that vision, selecting Sherwin-Williams colors that added character and elegance while still honoring the model home’s aesthetic.
Room by room, Erin reveals how Eider White and Alabaster form the foundation of a clean, soft palette, while deeper tones like Stillwater, Lakeside, and Peppercorn deliver richness and contrast. The half bath received a moody makeover with Sherwin-Williams Dovetail—a perfectly balanced deep gray that adds depth without overwhelming the space.
Every paint choice was customized to complement flooring, cabinetry, lighting, and the homeowner’s lifestyle. The result is a cohesive yet dynamic color story, proof of how color consultation goes beyond swatches and into intentional, livable beauty.
Color Highlights:
- Main Walls: Eider White and Alabaster for softness and versatility
- Accents: Stillwater and Lakeside for modern pops of blue-green
- Deep Contrast Walls: Peppercorn delivers moody drama
- Half Bath: Dovetail brings elegant richness to a small space
