I usually use Johnstone paint. Their mixes have always been spot on especially when copying Farrow & Ball. When they copied Dulux paint for me it was nothing like. I wonder if the same refers to Wickes?

Hello Maxine, I have to say I love grey... The article above is a good source of visual stimulus if you have not gone down the grey route before.. I even suggest going down the charcoal route too... I think grey is a warm and enveloping colour and if you team it with vibrant pieces, accents of gold or copper which are really fantastic... as are rich yellows and burnt oranges... :)) lamp black little greenescree little greene

Sal, Your kitchen looks beautiful! Its such a pain having to choose colours but I guess its definately worth it at the end. Going to order some test pots today and try as suggested. I like the feel mellow mocha gave to your kitchen - bounces back light and the contrast on the other side of the wall - the copper blush! Looking at doing something similar but want whatever colour I choose to flow through our lounge (its open plan) without 'breaking' the feel- if you get what I mean! Thanks, will defo post pics once done.

Is Crown paint poor quality? If so, what brands offer colour match?

I'm no expert but have done a fair bit of decorating / painting over the years and can't say my experience with Crown emulsion has been very positive. Yes, sometimes quite watery (although I'm not a fan of really thick paints like 'one coat' ones), yes multiple coats needed and not very washable once on the walls. Farrow and Ball is certainly way better in all these respects but exorbitantly expensive. I've had good results with Dulux (although some of the white gloss paints have turned quite yellow) but also with Wickes paints. There are many DIY outlets that offer colour matching. I'm sure you'll get some good pointers here on Houzz

I think you need a colour contrast with the sofa which is neutrally toned, grey would work as would the green too. I think you need to add personality by having some brighter cushions on the sofa, if you are unsure of colour they would be a good starting point as you can replace them more easily than re-painting the room. I think the room needs pictures too as suggested already to give it a sense of you and your personality. I don't think painting the room white would change it substantially and when a room is so neutral for me everything merges into one. You could use a colour wheel to find contrasting colours you like.
