New reception desk...need paint color ideas.

[mk162]

I am really debating what color to paint the bottom of the new desk in the reception area...Here are before and afters(mind you the after isn't in the correct place yet.  I am also clear coating the top, no stain on that.

The walls are about a 5527c, with maybe a touch more to the blue side.  I don't think I want the bottom of the desk white.

And yes, the same desk is still in there, I essentially made a "cover" for it.

Nice!! Pink brings out your eyes

and my fist will bring out the purple around yours.

I'm a marketing guy so I would say one of the colors in your company logo. Branding is what your customers see. Having colors they are used to seeing when dealing with you make them feel like they are in the right place. Nice job on the desk cover. Reception desks are expensive.

I am thinking one of the grays from our logo.  I will be putting the logo on the wall behind the desk, I am working out the details of that after the desk is done.

I really wanted to give that desk more of a private feel to it.  It needed some updating.

Look much more professional. I love the pallet wood wall. I still want to do that in my conference room I just don't have enough old pallets here.

I asked my customers for their pallets, all of them were fine with it.  I get several compliments a week on that, and a few picture takers as well.

I would say it doesn't matter as most people who walk in there will only see your receptionist.

I'd say a dark, warm grey that compliments the wood tones on the wall, desk and floor. I don't know what the greys in your logo look like though.

We're gonna need to see a picture of the aforementioned receptionist to really be able to properly help you choose a color....

Paint it black, then put your logo full-color over that.

Fluorescent Green, with some daisies... or dark brown. Usually this is easy for guys (my wife says)...

I had a big vinyl sticker cut with our logo on our front desk, little azz kids have pulled some of the vinyl off while there sorry azz mama's just watch, the ones we can't see, I hate to see a customer come in with little kids.

ask and you shall receive.

Also, I might go warm gray, I think that would look great.  I am putting the logo on the wall behind the desk.  I have a really great idea for that.
