Anything that can do double duty.
As for color that can be a personal choice. I am in the process of painting a hall (entrance) almost a wheat color, my studio is a pale green. I like the wheat color, looks like it will reflect light better. Both rooms have the ceiling painted the same as the walls. The trim seperates it.
