Sunroom paint colors

Sunrooms have the opposite problem from basements: too much natural light. Color choices that read fine on a chip can shift dramatically across the day as direct sunlight crosses the walls. Cool tones (sage, soft blue, eucalyptus) handle bright daylight without going washed out.

The picks below skew toward greens and fresh whites that complement the garden view a sunroom usually has. Avoid warm yellows and oranges (already supplied by the sun) and skip dark saturated colors (which absorb the light that's the whole point of the room).
