Different Colour at different times of day but a truly versatile colour and I would consider perfect for a hall .

I think you are probably correct!

What colour should I paint my front door and garage - 1930s House

I think your instinct is spot on - the grey does not go with your lovely house at all! You said yourself, 'the grey craze', why follow the herd? Perhaps you should question why you want a 'contemporary colour' instead of one of the many choices which will enhance your beautiful period house. You don't see lovely pink Suffolk cottages, or the black and white half timbered houses characteristic of some areas daubed with grey because it's the latest fad.

Yep there is. Little Greene have just bought out a new colour card and small brochure called Stone. This is because (bear with me on this), I'm not a slave to fashion. quite the opposite, but I predict that in a couple of years time, we will look back on the battleship grey phase in the same way we look back on the avocado bathroom suite phase. Greys are beautiful if they are nuanced and have a tinge of colour, but grey all over just because it's fashionable is not a good fit for many interiors, particularly light starved ones. The new range for Little Greene is brilliant because it appears to present them in terms of perceived temperature first. It suggests a colour, then gives related whites, neutrals, coordinating and contrasting colours. In terms of 'whites' I would never use pure white on a trim or skirting, rather I would use a related white. For example, for a pinky hued taupe colour, such as Oxford Stone, which can look warm and slightly pink, a pure white would look cold next to it, but a related white would look harmonious. If everything is painted in related colours then it can look like a 'White' room on a sunny afternoon, if that makes sense. My personal preference for neutrals is red based ones because I find yellow based ones can look a bit dirty in light starved spaces, and can look a bit bleak with LED lights which do no favours fo any colours. Hope this has not made things worse.

Is Farrow & Ball paint worth the money?

After recently splashing out on F&B when B&Q had 3 for 2 on paint and I thought it would be rude to not pass up a chance like that, I have mixed feelings. I've used whatever was on offer before but after painting the rooms I've done my thoughts are: estate emulsion is nice and it definately has better colour tones than the cheap brands but definately don't use it where there is any chance of moisture (tried it in the bathroom and it runs). Don't use it where it will get scuffed e.g. on the stairs where you'll lean against it but in rooms like living rooms & dining rooms it looks great. Where F&B really come into their own (in my humble opinion) is their eggshell for woodwork, furniture etc. It's tough has a lovely finish and the colours are deep and look expensive. We painted a couple of bathroom cabinets and a bath panel in Moles Breath (gotta love the names) and they look great. So kitchen units for example if you want something a bit different I'd I'd definately use but as for everything else, I'm inclined to agree with the majority on here and go for Johnstone's colour matching service, there's generally at least one Johnstones Tradecservice near every major town.

As you have a 6-year old, a slightly darker colour would work,- say a darker grey, but do the walls etc in Satin so they can be easily wiped down, and light reflects off shiny surfaces. I do like the darker bookcase, and again would go with another dark colour - we all need changes every so often. You have blue in other places, so how about a Midnight Blue for the bookcase? You have lovely floors, and it seems such a shame to cover them with rugs - leaving them natural would expand the space visually. With the handrail, I would leave it with the varnished oak, as this is one place that picks up marks more than anywhere else.
