The mere act of picking wall color can drive you up a wall, especially if you have no idea where to start. Will your blue be too blue? Will that deep red end up looking like an eggplant exploded in your kitchen? It's tough to say, without any frame of reference. That's why we went to some of our favorite designers to get their go-to picks that continually impress.
