Help with paint colour. North facing

8 years ago

I have posted on here for help with bathroom. . Also have another dilemma. Trying to redecorate, refurbish a holiday apartment in seafront Victorian mansion flat. Can anyone suggest a paint colour to go in this north facing bedroom. We're not keen on the curtain colour, but would prefer not to change them to keep costs down. The Windows have a bad outlook so will be putting privacy film on Windows to hide bad view

We tried F&B Cornforth White, but thought it may be a bit too dark. Thinking of a light grey, just need help with the actual shade unless anyone can suggest another colour for the room.
All suggestions considered.

Many thanks

Of course the picture looks nothing like the colour swatch in their colour cards. And it will probably look different on your walls too, but it is a pretty, warm white.

Thanks Kathy, think we will go with Gentle Fawn. Tried Nutmeg White and Almond White but they looked a bit grey looking so hoping Gentle Fawn will be warmer looking. Too many choices! Am having a beige carpet, so just have to choose curtain colour now. The window wall will be pink so don’t know which colour to match or whether to introduce a third colour and try and match it with duvet cover. .I quite like a soft green colour but may be too cool in north facing room?

Help with kitchen colours/ design in north / north west facing room??!

Hi! We have a north facing kitchen/dining/living area with a patio facing west and a window on the east side. We went for a lighter colour (slipper satin) on the kitchen units as they are at the 'back' of the room (ie you enter the kitchen from the hallway, then the living/dining area is at the patio/garden end). It is a lovely soft off white and doesn't look cream because of the cooler light north facing rooms get. We opted for Drop Cloth (also F&B) on walls which a lot of people comment on as it looks nice and warm and not too dark nor too pale. Our accent colour on the island/kitchen peninsula is Railings as I have other dark blue accents in my furnishings. If you are going for Downpipe on the island, I would possibly go for Strong White on your units as Ammonite can look quite cold. I have used S White on both walls and woodwork in other areas of my home and love it. Farrow & Ball told me it suits north light well, as does Wimborne White - which is a lovely warm white. Have you tried a sample of it at all? As for the tiles, I much prefer the blanc ones, think they look more modern. I have attached pics of my kitchen and hallway (which has strong white). I also have an instagram page Dekko Bird you could see more pics on. Hope this helps a little! keira x
