To paint, or not to paint the trim? What about only some of the trim? This is a careful choice to be made with all angles considered. If you look closely, the baseboards and molding remained bright white, but the homeowners painted over the chair rail with deep gray. I think this was a solid decision because monochromatic walls with board and batten, wainscotting, and chair rail are so popular right now amongst interior enthusiasts. This is a win-win in my book, especially beside the bright white windows and beige curtains.
