Hi! How is lighting in the room? If you are looking for a true black I would gbo with Tricorn. Iron Ore may show dark gray depending on lighting in the room.

Caviar does come to mind as a good option. Does the door get direct sunlight? If so it may show up dark gray painted Iron Ore, though you mentioned stone accents with some gray tone. I can mock up what different color doors would look like if you want to do a virtual consult (some info on that here)

Just came across it as I’m googling and trying to deciding on front door color for new door order I have to place this week. House has vinyl siding in Lakeshore Fern (green) and Trim is Linen (slight off white). Currently have a red door (good ol’ SW Spicy Hue) which goes well with the stone accent- (w/ browns/black & some grey) and then Weathered Wood brown roof color. I like the red, but also thinking it’s time to change it up. I have most of the samples you mentioned…but not Tricorn or Caviar and wondering if those might be better than Inkwell or Greenblack. Iron Ore was recommended by a friend but wondering if it will read too grey on my house. Traditional/cottage style. Would love your input!

I think of Steamed Milk more in a traditional home (it is quite warm). If you want a warm white something like Alabaster would work better with modern colors. A greige could also work well (I have some ideas here).

Hi! For recs of white/combinations with black I offer virtual paint consults so I can see pictures/video of your home and be specific with support. More info here. Tricorn, Black Magic and Caviar are all quite neutral and what I consider true blacks.

Open concept. White kitchen cabinets black counter top. My family room colors are black white and grey with creamy grayish light laminate flooring. Tried so many samples of whites and grays. I’m so stuck. What Sherman williams wall color would you suggest? Cream or white. Or what would a creamy light grey be? A few suggestions please. Thank you. Great article!

Thanks so much for your review. I am searching for a black SW color for my kitchen walls. The trim and cabinets will be white. Your thoughts on this possible combination and which SW “true” black (i.e. tricorn, black magic, caviar) would you recommend? Thanks in advance.

Great idea! Urbane Bronze or Black Fox should work well. Ben Moore Kendall Charcoal is another solid option too.
