However, you need not worry about the ‘green’ undertone since they’re mostly hidden and muted.

In general, you can use this color in any compass direction but you must know how it will end up looking.

Can I Use Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter For The WHOLE HOUSE?
Well, I wouldn’t recommend so! Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter can look quite dark when used on all the common walls of your home, stairways, and hallways.

Rather, I’d recommend that you choose this color only as an accent on the built-in shelves of your living room or family room, interior doors, or accent wainscoting.
