Can anyone recommend a feature wall colour to match Egyptian cotton?

2 years ago

Our kitchen diner is painted in Egyptian cotton. We want to remove our current wallpapered feature wall and replace with paint before adding picture shelves across the wall for a more modern look. Can anyone recommend a colour which matches well?

Have you got a photo, and also what colour/style is the kitchen?

Update - alabaster painted oak units, oak worktop, (curved end units and worktop corners) belfast sink, 1100 stainless steel rangemaster porcelain large high gloss ivory 600x600 floor tiles, ivory grout - please see attached look book just still to decide on shade of sage on walls - deciding between F&B Mizzle, Vert De Terre, Ball Green and Cooking Apple Green... Also metro sub/way tiles on walls - whether to go for a sage tile or cream/white... The dining room area off the kitchen will have oak parquet floor which will follow through from hall and will also be in the lounge but Im thinking of following the wall colour in the kitchen through to the dining room for continuity and potentially painting the chimney brest or wall furthest away from and facing the kitchen a darker green complementary colour... Thoughts please

You could try Jim Lawrence, they do lots of really beautiful lighting and have so many finishes to choose from so even if the pendant and wall lights aren't in exactly the same 'range' you can make sure the colour or finish matches so they tie in. Here's a pairing that might work with the scandi style but do look through all the options.

Katie I think purbeck and skimming stone look ok next to each other, I have a hallway in skimming stone and a room off the hall in purbeck but I probably wouldn’t put them in the same room together. To my eye they have a different undertone. If ammonite is too blue maybe try strong white? Or paint the walls the same colour as the alcoves.

Hi Coba, I like your flooring, it's beautiful! For the bedroom I would go for a pastel blue paint, it's very calm and it helps with a better nights sleep too. It would look brilliant with the dark wooden floor and it would also match your lightwood wardrobe colours. For the hallway how do you feel about a pastel mint green? It's fresh, happy and it cheers up a small functional space with not too much furniture in it. Just make sure you choose a balanced colour that isn't super bright. For the living room you could go for a neutral colour or white, depending on the style and colour of furniture you have, then you could add pops of colour with art work, fabrics and accessories. Alternatively you could opt for a light pastel salmon(ish) pink paint combined with a matching geometric wallpaper. I attached images to illustrate what I mean. I think this would complement the light grey floor quite nicely. Hope this helps, but happy to discuss further if these suggestions are far away from what you'd like :)

I’ve got Egyptian Cotton on the top part of my hall and below the dado is F&B Pigeon. It’s quite dark but if that’s too dark Mizzle and Cromarty are a good choice.
