Greek Villa is so pretty in my home, I love the creaminess of it. I never get tired of looking at it and it pairs beautifully with many decor styles/furnishings. Thank you for the complimentary colors, need ideas for pairing when I start the kitchen!
Congratulations on your marriage!🎉 We bought a new house last year and painted the entire place in Greek Villa and chose a slightly creamier color for the cabinets. We love it! It is good to see some of the accent colors, especially the green. I had a lot of light sage green in my old house and am looking gor ways to put that to use in my new home. You had some great ideas here!
SO thrilled to see white trim and cabinetry with the Greek Villa! I've repainted our laundry room cabinets white and thought, now what for the walls?? It looks like it'll be Greek Villa, and possibly Eucalyptus for an accent wall.
I actually just tried Greek Villa for interior repainting, but picked Berh's Sleek White over it. Greek villa was more..idk, tan-ish than I was looking for. Sleek White has a nice depth to the color, weird to say for a white, but I really like it.
Greek Villa with High Reflective White trim and cabinets throughout the home are most beautiful! It does not chage throughout, it stays consistant. Lots of compliments. Clean and fresh.
You torture me, today is the last day of the SW sale. I have to pick and every time you post a video I think " that's the one". I am still so undecided, this is so hard.
Me too! I’m so indecisive. I’ve narrowed it down to off-white and not a bold color. But which off-white? I need an off white that will complement my orangy knotty pine tongue and groove ceilings and some walls. Hmmm is Greek Villa the one? I need to narrow it down to 3 to test and get it done already 😅
Another great video James. I would love to see a dedicated color pairings video for dedicated home theater rooms and media rooms. Dark colors to support the best visual light control to maximize projection screen performance. Not just tricorn black and slates of grey, but pallets that can be interesting.
lol, I haven't even finished the video yet but when you said "Saganaki" my stomach growled. We have an awesome Greek/Italian restaurant here and whenever we go, we ALWAYS get it. Pro Tip - if you're lactose intolerant, but miss eating cheese, it's usually made from goat or sheep milk so give it a go!
Have used Greek Villa in 3 homes now! Two remodels and our own house Our go to white! Satin. And paired Enjoyable yellow, sw 6666, on some accent walls. (I think it was on SW pairing suggestions) Will try the Eucalyptus in our current remodel - maybe a bathroom wall. Just ready to paint our new primed Doors - will try White Snow - Q: Interior should be semi-gloss ? Or Satin?
I'm debating on this or Swiss Coffee on my kitchen cabinets and walls, trim and doors. Basically everywhere in my open concept area. They're so similar. I can't decide!!
After agonizing far too long, I bought five gallons of Greek Villa to use in all the front rooms of my house. Yay, it's James-approved!😃Also looking for something to go with it. Loyal blue and that eucalyptus color are worth a test.
@@rileyhalls9301 I really like it. It brightens up the room without being blindingly white. I have a lot of trees outside; once in a while the slightest hint of green reflects on a wall opposite a big window, but I'm paint-obsessed and no one else sees it.😅 Follow James's advice and get a tester can before committing. I'm very happy with Greek Villa. I chose SW Coastal Plain, a nice muted green for an adjoining room. Thanks for asking!
@@franjones5312 Thank you for responding. We are getting a new place- its very nice -but, the inside looks dark kinda like a jail - it faces east & not much other windows. I want to really brighten it but not bring on a headache especially in the morning light. The sun is blistering there & I do like being out of it at high strength. Thanks again!
Going with Greek villa as the base of our house color, I was looking at rainwashed for the front door and now I'm thinking possibly a "similar color" (according to sw) as fresh eucalyptus "quietude" for the open closet we'll be doing (same color strip as rainwashed). We have Greek villa on all the walls with the exception of urbane bronze in some accent wall areas.
Thanks. If doing 2 colors on wall separated with chair rail, what would go well with greek villa? Something neutral for partial basement trying to brighten and modernize. Bottom part of wall is paneling.
How will this look in an east facing room especially in the afternoon & evenings? Not a lot of other windows - There are also quite a few darkened areas in the home where shadowing can occur.
Hello, what ceiling color goes with Greek villa walls & trim? I’m thinking of going Greek villa everything- walls, doors, trim. Should I paint my ceiling Greek villa also (flat) or should I go with high reflective white, white dove, or pure white? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!
I have this color in my kitchen but my living room has warm pinks , terra-cotta colors i see you put blues with it with no pinks will it work with pinks ?
I have a weird question. Recently, I put together a Pinterest to gather together my current, visceral, attraction to colors, in order to figure out the direction I want to go after 13 years of living with a deep red & white color scheme. Surprisingly, I found my self drawn to a natural stone I had never even heard of: Aventurine. Specifically the very light, almost translucent, green Aventurine. How would one go about recreating that kind of color on a wall? Bring Aventurine stone to a paint store? An how to get that almost translucent effect? Use a semi-gloss and cover it with some kind of glaze? If any Paint People sees this and has any ideas, I'd love to hear them!
I have walnut baseboards, so I didn't paint them. However, the crown moulding was a sickly tan. I painted both the walls and crown moulding with Greek Villa. Looks really good.
Do you think high gloss chantilly lace white paint on ceiling can make ceiling look higher? I was thinking the high reflection might give the illusion of height, because low 8ft ceilings. Thanks!
Your enquiry is 5 months old, so I'm sure you've painted your ceiling by now. It's never recommended to use high gloss on ceilings, for a multitude of reasons. Matte finish on ceilings is the way to go.
What is the undertone for the Greek Villa? I can't decide on my screen if it's gray or has a slight bluish hint. And what do all these paints SMELL like? I have to avoid VOCs if at all possible. Last time I was in a painted room I felt sick afterwards for months and I have two elderly pets to consider.
Sadness. This is so hard. My fear as well - being disappointed in my choice instead of loving it. Especially when you let a paint brand color match. I'm sorry you feel let down!
Highly disappointed that 5 or 6 minutes into the video, the wife didn't yell in the background: "you left the toilet seat up, AGAIN!" And then you come back with: "yeah.. like I said before, the honeymoon is over...."

I painted my upstairs hallway (with no natural light) and all our trim in Greek villa and now am looking to use it in other rooms. It's perfect!

Thanks for this video, I chose Greek Villa as the main color of my entire new home. And I was NOT disappointed! Thank you!
Thanks for including an entire color palette. This is my favorite style. Ethnic Mediterranean
I painted my bedroom the Greek villa on 3 walls and 1 wall the fresh eucalyptus. Omgosh I love it! Thank you so much
This color was just on my mind last night. Greek Villa it is, thank you! Congratulations on your marriage💕
Like that Fresh Eucalyptus. Loyal Blue reminds me of the pictures of Greece I've seen. Lovely!

What shade did you paint your cabinets?
Greek Villa is gorgeous as are
Fresh eucalyptus and Loyal Blue.
Great video, James!
This is my favorite shade of white. It's warm, creamy and goes with just about everything! I use it all over my house with other colors.

yaaas! Our sunlit kitchen is Greek Villa and we ADORE it!!!!

I Agree With You 100%.
That’s Exactly What I’m Going With.
It Looks Really Good In My Home.
I Have Little Natural Light Coming In.
You torture me, today is the last day of the SW sale. I have to pick and every time you post a video I think " that's the one". I am still so undecided, this is so hard.
Pick snowbound

@@dhrtiwalter8670 I’m trying Sherwin Williams Agreeable Gray and Snowbound. I’m gonna test them both first than make a choice.
I bought a can during the sale and brought it back later to tint it.
Whites are the hardest!
Another great video James. I would love to see a dedicated color pairings video for dedicated home theater rooms and media rooms. Dark colors to support the best visual light control to maximize projection screen performance. Not just tricorn black and slates of grey, but pallets that can be interesting.
I painted my tan brick house Greek Villa and it’s beautiful.
My daughters bedroom is I. This colour and its absolutely beautiful
Pretty palette. Santorini is a bucket list destination for me. I am glad you and your bride had a wonderful honeymoon.

Greek villa looks awesome outdoors!
What a beautiful pallet!
What greens would work well with Greek Villa?

I am using Greek villa in my master bedroom, with 1 wall the eucalyptus. Thank you!
Hmmmm....thoughts on Greek Villa vs Swiss Coffee?

Love all the pairings!

How do you get difficult stains out of carpeting
My favorite paint color!
Love Greek Villa and Roman Column
I love them both too but Roman Column picked up the green from trees and grass outside and turned into a yellow green on the walls.
Now re painting!
How will this look in an east facing room especially in the afternoon & evenings? Not a lot of other windows - There are also quite a few darkened areas in the home where shadowing can occur.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!
Which burgundy color can pair perfectly with Greek villa in a medium room ? So it looks spacious and elegant! 💖
You can buy the paint and have it mixed to your desired colour at a later date
Dianne, yes, you can. This is exactly what I did this morning to take advantage of the SW 40% off sale!
Dang wish I had known that earlier.
does painting the trim a bright white make Greek Villa pull yellow at all?
Are you reading my mind? 😂 I just went into TH-cam to search for a SW Greek Villa review.
Had my house painted SW Olympic White, do you have a color palette for that??
Any warm white with yellow undertones to go with violet accent wall. Santorini has cobalt blue domes with very bold white. I loved going there
I have this color in my kitchen but my living room has warm pinks , terra-cotta colors i see you put blues with it with no pinks will it work with pinks ?
I always like the color that's behind you while your talking better than the ones your representing. What color is behind you on this vid?!

Is "Greek Villa" painted on the walls or cabinetry in this photo?

what colors for trim for behr blank canvas walls? (south facing room) I want a lighter white but not a stark white for trim
I just recently purchased Greek Villa for the foyer/living room. Can I leave the baseboards or should they be painted?
Always paint! 😀
I have walnut baseboards, so I didn't paint them. However, the crown moulding was a sickly tan. I painted both the walls and crown moulding with Greek Villa. Looks really good.

Is Greek villa similar to simply white By Benjamin Moore ??
What is the undertone for the Greek Villa? I can't decide on my screen if it's gray or has a slight bluish hint. And what do all these paints SMELL like? I have to avoid VOCs if at all possible. Last time I was in a painted room I felt sick afterwards for months and I have two elderly pets to consider.
In our well lit kitchen, Greek villa has a warm yellow/brown undertone. It pairs surprisingly well with light grey and marble!
@@kathleenwiens6763 Do you have a pic?
I guess you already painted by now, but Ecos paint is the best paint for those who are chemically sensitive.
Will Greek Villa clash with Aloof Gray? 😬
Can I pair villa with iron ore???
I think this would be beautiful
Congrats on your marriage
Yellow
Love it all but not the blue.
Greek Villa is sooo stark white in my house 😢
Sadness. This is so hard. My fear as well - being disappointed in my choice instead of loving it. Especially when you let a paint brand color match. I'm sorry you feel let down!
Greek Villa is def gorgeous. I prefer it way more than the overrated Alabaster.
Yes, I agree! Thank you for saying that. I have been increasingly doubting myself because of all the lavish praise on Alabaster. I prefer Greek Villa!
Too bad SW reps don't care about their deception on product failure for their designer emerald
What does this mean?
Highly disappointed that 5 or 6 minutes into the video, the wife didn't yell in the background: "you left the toilet seat up, AGAIN!"
And then you come back with: "yeah.. like I said before, the honeymoon is over...."
3 coats minimum on that color
Paint aside, what product do you use on your hair? 😜
Ben Moore Stoneware > Greek Villa
Who pays you .....Sherwin Williams , Benjamin Moore , you tube or all three? Wish you would try other companies products and colors.
I would never go to Greece or make it my honeymoon designation. The color itself though is a very nice warm neutral white leaning on the cream side.
Interesting. We really enjoyed Greece.....
really? why not? I just came back from Nafplio Greece and it was amazing!
Very rude!
@@kristinstrickland1038 Like wise!
@@thepinkdiamonds8370 Admonishing someone for acting badly is good, not bad.
Not interested in companion colors
SW paint stinks. Kelly Moore is the way to go. Lower VOC
Sherrington Williams should use Samplify So much easier to use to check out colotrs,
who is sherrigton?😂
