Excellent video. What colour would you choose in a kitchen with a dark green kitchen cabinets with goldish handles? Room size is small/medium? Also, should i just use a normal white matt for kitchen ceiling kr use the same color as walls?
Thanks! I would go for something like Dulux Moon Shimmer, it actually has light green undertones which would make it workable in the space; amzn.to/42OWspl or for something warmer, look at Frosted Dawn too amzn.to/3I0Yk4D - always get testers beforehand so you can see how they feel in the room as they do look different online. As these are off-whites, I would take the same colour up and onto the ceiling. Hope that helps!
You’re very welcome! I love Timeless, it’s warm but not such a strong yellow undertone as some of the others, I like Jasmine White too although it has a slightly stronger yellow undertone, out of the two I would choose Timeless 😊
Hi - we are doing wainscotting in our flat. We like Jasmine White for the top 2/3. Struggling to select which colour for the bottom 1/3. We want to keep things clean and white. Seems that the top 2/3 should be lighter and bottom 1/3 should be darker. Appreciate your thoughts. Thank you.
Hi! Traditionally the darker shade is at the bottom as a lighter shade naturally draws the eye up giving there illusion of a bigger space, if it's in a transitional space a darker shade is also more practical at the bottom, however, many people switch it round the other way too. You could pair with bright white if you want to keep things light and bright, hope that helps! Nicole
After much deliberation, I’m going for Summer Linen for my walls in the hallway, landing and stairs, which shade of white would you use on the woodwork? I would prefer an eggshell type finish rather than gloss, any suggestions welcome
Love summer linen! Yes - always go for eggshell or matt on skirting, if you want a classic white to match the ceiling too I'd just go for Pure Brilliant White eggshell. I will also add that going for something a couple of shades darker on the skirting and woodwork will bring definition to the space so this is also an option, this is a more modern approach but depends what style you're looking for :)
Thanks for watching! White cotton has a slight grey undertone, if you have a sunny, very light space then I would go for it. If it is North facing or darker in nature, best to stick to Brilliant White as any type of grey undertone will make the space feel darker, hope that helps!
Hi. I bought a sample of white mist and it looks like a very light gray to me. I have a small, darker hall. I like the Scandinavian style, will this color match? I don't want colors that tend to be yellow. What else do you recommend??Can I use Dulux kitchen paint or regular Dulux Easy Care paint in a busy hall? Does the matt kitchen one have an eggshell coating?
Yes, white mist does have grey undertones so can feel like a light grey. I would personally avoid this shade if you already have a dark hall as it will make it feel cold and darker. Most Dulux warm shades do have a yellow undertone, so I'd maybe look at something like Moon Mist which has a green undertone, it is part of the Dulux range of their light + space paints. Colours that have light reflective particles which will help to make smaller spaces seem bigger. Definitely worth getting a tester beforehand though :) In a hallway, I would use Dulux easy care rather than kitchen paint.
Yellow or red based is generally always best if you want something warmer than a bright white or whites with grey undertones, that’s why I always recommend testing in your home before purchasing as they look different in different lights.
Morning, definitely keep things bright with a warm white with a slight yellow undertone that will lift the grey - look at Almond White, Timeless, and Moon Shimmer if you want something a bit closer to a bright white - it has light reflecting particles so makes the space feel and look bigger than it is, hope that helps!
Hi! would you recommend kitchen wall color with i) dry kitchen wood cabinet (muji style) & ii) wet kitchen stainless steel cabinet :) im so stuck with choosing color 😭
@@terokasouls Thanks for letting me know! Okay, so I would go for a something warm and neutral here so balance with the wooden tones you have. For Dulux paints, look at Moon Shimmer (light green undertone and one of their brightest whites), Timeless, Fine Cream or Natural Hessian for a more rustic neutral. Do get a tester pot of your favourites and test on an A4 sheet of paper so you can move around the space to see how they feel, hope that helps!
hi thankyou for your videos. I've a very dark hallway but was hoping to find a white with a just a hint of beige which seems to be in for 2024? any advice or a colour to look at please
Thanks for watching and apologies for my delayed response, warm, modern neutrals are what we're leaning towards in 2024 so Egyptian Cotton definitely, if you want something with a tint of beige have a look at Fine Cream, Absolute White and Jasmine White, thanks, Nicole x
I find your videos very informative - thank you! Some feedback: Personally I would appreciate if you could talk a little slower. I know it's difficult as we all have our own natural speed for talking but just thought I'd give you my opinion. Thanks again for the great videos
