Paint edit: The Petal effect

MAY 2017

As the days get warmer and longer we look at adding warmer tones within the home.

Somewhere between blue and green you will find the shades of aqua and turquoise - uplifting, enduring and calm or bold and dynamic.

As mentioned in our last mood board post - Tones in this fresh group of hues take their names and inspiration from the watery elements that they conjure up: ocean, sea spray, aqua, sea foam and glass evoke a crystal clear delicacy that is as timeless as the oceans themselves and reminding us of summer.

These shades are wonderful to live with and can be incredibly versatile; used with the appropriate white, they are crisp and contemporary, or use them with the right shade of grey such as our Steel shade or another neutral and they can project a classic timelessness.
