Oooo now see I'm jealous of your media room in the basement. We are now even in our coveting. Ha! I love that color, gorgeous!! Maybe just keep on using it for the cabinets since it is "perfect for video games." My 12 year old son would agree.

Love it. Our basement is BM woodstock tan, BM duxbury gray and trim of Lenox Tan. I love that it is dark and warm. BTW…love the aegean teal here. I'm going to go with it in my dining room.

I love the blue! It looks awesome. I would paint the panels either white {to stand out}or blue {to blend in}. You're lucky to have such a great basement!

Nice post! Love how the paint adds some color without making it too dark. Do the panels serve any function? I would try to remove them or paint them the same color so the blend into the wall. I like the idea that the other commenters have had about making them loo like built-ins. It would be really nice if they were actually usable storage.

Love the new wall color! What about making them all look like cabinets? Even the non-functional ones… painting them the same color and adding hardware to make it look like a unit.

I like the wall color! I would paint the panels either white like the trim or the color of the walls so they sort of go away. Depends on whether you want that to be featured or to just go away. Maybe throw some knobs on the panels so they look like built-ins?

Can the panels be wrapped with fabric that coordinates with the new paint color?!! That would make an awesome, bold statement!
