Agree with carrieandjimh, You will need to connect the two colors through prints on pillows, curtains, rug etc. Can you post a pic of the sofa and wall color so we can see what we're talking about here? Thx.

It's a dilemma because you know your stuck with it for years once it's on. We recently painted our cedar exterior. Started by agreeing on a general colour and then buying a series of sample pots. We finally decided on dulux colour bond dune. Amazing in itself as we rarely agree haa. It was a nice mix between beige and grey. We bought the 10 litre tin and went to work. After completing one wall I thought the paint was taking a while to dry as it wasn't getting as dark as the sample. My husband thought it was because of the lighting. I took a piece of wood and painted the sample which we loved and the paint from the 10 litre can together and yes they were a different shade. The hardware store had accidentally mixed the sample pot in double strength. It was all fixed up and we really love the result. So it was Dulux Colourbond Dune. I think it would be perfect with your roof colour.

I've just been looking at your colours, I think the Dulux Dieskau would work the best with the other colours you have to work with, choosing colours is such a personal thing and I know it can be really hard to choose and hope you make the correct choice. Oskuee is right, a paint job can look terrible half way through so you need to make sure you finish to get the proper look of colour. But the biggest thing to remember is it's only paint and it's the cheapest thing to change so if your not happy with the colour you choose you can always try something else. Happy redecorating :)

Wish i found this Q &A before. So many beautiful people advising and sharing here! I am Repainting Tropical Queenslander with dark red and orangy timber floors and this thread is so helpful. I painted Whisper white and it is throwing so much Green it makes me so sad I am going to repaint. I get loads of tropical sun in the north facing - with eastern morning sunlight. Was just about to go and buy Natural White just to cover it. Do you think it will be too dull/warm a colour. I do like a fresh feel and contrasting with vivid white decorative trims. The whisper white looks nice For a while in the morning while the morning sunlight throws read up onto it but then it returns to a green
