Or, paint the office Balboa Mist.
We spend yesterday painting the first floor of the office. We have a first coat up on all of the walls, and later, after the floors are sanded and re-stained this coming week, will wash the dust off of them and do a (very, very careful) final coat.
The kind of names they give paint these days. I have no idea what shade of color is a Balboa Mist.
