All our trim is white regardless of the room color.

I have never seen the trim painted the same as the walls

We have white trim everywhere, with many other colors throughout the house. Our neighbors did navy blue doors and trim. It sounds weird but it looks pretty sharp! I worry it will be trendy and painting trim seems like a pain so I probably wouldn't do it!

White baseboards are a pain to keep looking nice with small children. I would go with something a bit darker for the baseboards, particularly in the public rooms, like in Monticello: https://www.monticello.org/site/house-and-gardens/interiors

Look at the entrance hall and the parlor in that link--I really like that blue-gray against the white/cream! I might do that when we get around to repainting. We've got friends who have black baseboards in the entrance and it looks really good against the white walls and wood floors. It sounds weird, but it really works and it's very practical.

Our trim and walls are painted the same beige color and it is so blaah.

We will definitely be repainting the walls, and will probably bite the bullet and do the trim + doors a brighter white color. I think with the walls painted the beige trim would probably look ok, but the previous owner did such a crappy job painting that I feel like I should just fix it and be done with it.

I haven't had a hard time keeping white trim clean, especially baseboards (it's probably because we dont have pets, dont wear shoes in the house, have a cleaning person). I think white is the safest choice, and it is easier to change the paint color on the walls as opposed to all the detail work involved with painting trim. I also take a magic eraser around once in a while and touch up the spots that are scuffed.

If you ever plan to sell the house I'd go with white trim. I wouldn't buy a house with non-white trim because I'd want to change the wall colours and wouldn't want to also have to do all the trim.

I would only paint my trim white. I especially like the look of bright white trim against light grey walls. But white is a nice neutral that goes with anything.

The house I grew up in had trim similar to what @honeybear: posted, but it was also built in in the 1700s so I think it was a more time appropriate thing (the rooms would be a super pale shade of green or blue with dark green or blue trim)

I don't like bright white, but go with a white for trim usually. We haven't repainted in my new house and a lot of the trim in the living area is still dark wood from the 70s. I doubt we'll change it until we update the kitchen (because it's also original)
