SELECTING PAINT COLOURSThere are many ways you can combine and apply colour depending on the interior style you want to create. While the possibilities can seem unlimited, colour schemes generally fall into three types: 'Contrasting', 'Monochromatic' and 'Related'. |
CONTRASTING COLOUR SCHEMES |
|
Walls: Jaipur Pink, Ceiling/Cornicing & Skirting: Kasbah, Fireplace: Salt III; Wall/Trim: Mockingbird, Bath: Kasbah, Ceiling: Lead III |
Pair contrasting colours to create a strong statement in any interior. Paint the ceiling in a contrasting shade to draw the eye upwards, or introduce bold colours to create a focal point within the space. |
 |
MONOCHROMATIC COLOUR SCHEMES |
|
Walls: Iguana, Ceiling/Cornicing: Cotton II; Walls: Minim, Units and Highlight Stripe: Opus, Island: Kohl |
Monochromatic schemes use either a single colour or a combination of black and white shades. Paint walls and woodwork in one strong hue for a highly impactful scheme, or use contrasting black and white colours in striking combinations for a bold, contemporary look. |

RELATED COLOUR SCHEMES |
|
Ceiling: Stone I, Upper wall: Stone II, Shutter: Stone II, Stripe: Moleskin, Lower Wall & Skirting: Stone V; Walls: Powder V, Powder III, Ceiling: Powder V, Skirting: Powder I |
For a softer scheme with subtle variation of depth and light, use a combination of related shades. Choose shades from one group of Architectural Colours and layer throughout the space for an elegant and sophisticated interior. |
