   You could go with white, Or do the the entire wall chocolate, and a white semi-gloss on the crown moulding and chair rail and other trim would look fantastic!

   Go to http://www.Behr.com — look for a color close to the chocolate color you’d like to use and they’ll show you coordinating colors. You can fill it into a sample room to see how the colors look together – but the colors themselves aren’t terribly accurate.

   I suggest either "feathered plume" or "artifact" by Behr. Check ‘em out:

   I love crown molding! & the chair rail will really pop out if you paint the wall choc brown…is the chair rail & molding painted or wood? I would paint it white, or cream, and then do the bottom half a lighter shade of mocha.
