Hi Cindy
picking colours is a very personal exercise and it depends what you are trying to acheive in the rooms. If you want to have a contrast you would go for a shade that is a bit darker on the colour scale to the seed pearl. If you go into a paint store they will have a chart and choose a colour two shades darker than seed pearl. If you are wanting to keep it as neutral as possible you can use seed pearl double strength on the walls and that will give you more flow in the room.
