Living Rooms // Dining Rooms
The Speaker of the House Living rooms are where a home expresses its personality to guests in the most direct manner. Level of sophistication, style and elegance are all quickly read in the décor of a
living room. Additionally, the degree of formality that a home projects is determined by the living room. Color schemes set the context for the story that the living room will tell. Neutral

COLOR CHIPS AND PAINT: These color chips are produced as accurately as possible; however, actual paint colors may vary from these samples and from batch to batch. Paint colors are affected by many factors, including lighting, age, type of finish, type of surface and adjacent colors. Some colors may require more than one coat for complete coverage. If final color appearance and color matches are critical, paint should be sampled on the actual surface before full application. Application of the paint constitutes acceptance of the color. Dunn-Edwards assumes no responsibility for color after application.
