There are many different answers for this as the circumstances require different paints. In a high moisture area such as a bathroom or kitchen area, a semi gloss is preferred. In a high traffic area, a flat paint is normally used for easier cleanup. Trim, handrails and crown molding are normally painted in a high gloss, for effect.
