Painting: Interior and Exterior

Most of the paints come from the Benjamin Moore deck Color Stories:  Full Spectrum Color Collection by Benjamin Moore

Interior Painting
Main house
In all the areas with high ceilings, Jon suggested that we make the "ceiling" a lighter color of the room color. He said John would know if we said we should "split" the color.
Final decision January 2, 2013: All ceilings and inner part of arches will be Atrium White Flat. All trim will be Atrium White Semi-gloss.
Entry:
Final decision January 2, 2013: Sea Glass CSP 735 Flat for walls
Front door is to the right of the photo, closet to the left. 
Living room and dining room: John of Allied Paints painted a portion of the wall in Approaching Autumn CSP 1090 at 100%. It made my stomach hurt. I tried many many other possibilities--so many that I had to prime them over and begin afresh.
