White painted walls

i actually went with the Dulux Brilliant White Soft Sheen. I went for an all white gloss finished kitchen and was keen to ensue the walls had a bit of life rather than opting for a dull Matt. Equally I did not want the finish you get with a vinyl silk finish. Soft Sheen fits nicely in the middle of the two. Thanks for your responses ; will be positing pictures of the completed project shortly.

help! white paint for north east facing sitting room
Q

We used white cotton in our north facing room which is lovely and light but not as strong as brilliant white. Skimming stone and cornforth white are also lovely shades but a bit more to them than just a standard white. We always paint a tester in the room we're going to decorate, as its amazing how a grey can look like it has hints of lilac in a different light. Also allows you to check it doesn't clash with the flooring colour (a friend of mine recently had decorators in only to realise after the walls didn't compliment the carpet). Good luck on your project.

The minefield of choosing a white paint - HELP

Not grey white, that's also cold. Brilliant white is a white with extra blue added, so that is cold to very cold depending how much blue was added. You want a white which is slightly tinted yellow instead. I suggest you try a tester of Dulux 'Timeless' which is available in a kitchen paint and also B&Q's 'Antique White' which is a premium paint which can be washed if stuff splashes on it. The Dulux kitchen paint can be washed too, and probably has better stain and grease resistance. How important the stain resistant aspect is depends on how you use your kitchen and how close to the cooker and sink you're painting, but I would always go for a washable paint in a kitchen. A specialist kitchen paint is better. You'll just have to see if the whites will go together - that's what testers are for. Also, all the grey in a North-facing kitchen will be making it look darker and colder. You might consider choosing another colour for your painted wall in the dining area. I know grey is 'in' right now but that doesn't mean it works well everywhere and anywhere.

Exterior wall colour to go with Hardwick White (Farrow&Ball) woodwork?
Q

Hi OnePlan, thanks for the reply. Good idea to check if anyone is planning a change of colour. I like your idea of inverting the other colours but as you can see there isn't really any colour going on anywhere. Except for the one mint house (just to the left of the frame of this photo) all the others are white w white trim. I really don't want to do anything bright white if for no other reason than the render just gets too dingy (the little lumps and bumps collect such a lot of dust and soot as well as the gull issue). F&B haven't been much help which surprised me as I see so many houses in the country that use these dull dun/greys on woodwork, I'd assumed they'd have some ideas for walls.
