When your dealing with small spaces, I always think it's best to keep the walls neutral. But.....Magnolia is not the only neutral. Is every house in the UK painted in Magnolia? I just can't get my head around it. I find it a bit dull to be honest, there are thousands of colours that can act as neutrals and lend themselves well to art, photos and furniture. White on the other hand instantly adds a bit of glamour simply because everything looks clean & fresh. It makes spaces look and feel larger and acts as a blank canvas. Don't get me wrong I love colour, but get it wrong and it could be disasterous! Simple is best the colour will come from the furnishings.
I found this photo in a Magazine and I think it's a very good example of white done well.
A lot of people think that white can be cold, but you can see from this example the room looks cozy. I can see myself sitting on the sofa with a glass of Pinot and good book. It's all in the detail.
