Okay, so you're decorating. When you go paint shopping - white isn't likely to be the first colour you'd go for. It's has this nasty association with prisons, university dorm rooms and office cubicles. On the bright side, ahem, it presents you with a fantastic blank canvas, and give you more wiggle room with colours you can add to it. I honestly do think that white, grey and black are my favourite wall colours ever.
