Need help for painting walls in my cottage

riverside93

I have painted my cottage 23ft living room and hall up the stairs and above tallow F&B, but would like to paint walls as light as possible. Not PBW, I am warming to All White F&B, Shirting L&G or pointing. Decorator coming in a few days help! The room is north facing.

    I agree that keeping the theme throughout a property with regards wall colour adds to the synergy and flow of the place. Our own cottage walls are all the same colour in every room. However, we accessorize with differrent accent colours that work well room to room.

    Sticking to the warmer neutrals will help in the north facing rooms as the cooler ones can make them look colder. However, I believe that the accent colours can soon warm the cooler ones up.

    White Tie by F&B is a good neutral tone to work with, and i prefer to paint skirtings, architraves and possibly the internal doors ( depending on type ) in all the same colour, which also adds to space and flow.

    I'd highly recommend that you go for either Dulux and have the paint mixed to type in the same shade ie Emulsion for the Walls and Satinwood for the woodwork, or Valspar at B&Q ( used to be Crown ), infinitely better paint than F&B.

    I agree with man about the house, stick to warmer neutrals as pure white can look a bit cold in a large area, just off whites are great! Also accessories with warmer colours.

    Thank you both so much as I am going to take your advice about using Dulux or Valspar.. this site comes into its own at times like this. I am trying to attach a photos of my kitchen that leads off the living room. I have Ivory Laura Ashley in kitchen, Pointing F &B in the spare bedroom and tallow F&B in the front room I am changing..
