Library by Kate Marker Interiors
With a roaring fire, classic panelling and a hidden bar, this library by Kate Marker is the ultimate inviting escape. The finishing flourish? Our rich Broccoli Brown on the walls and woodwork in ultra-matte Dead Flat. This archived shade sits between green and brown for a sophisticated, cozy feel.
Living Room by Caitlin Wilson Design
Sophisticated and serene are two words that spring to mind when we look at this living room by Caitlin Wilson. The subtle colour scheme uses Pink Ground on the walls and Wimborne White on the trim and moulding to softly highlight the room’s beautiful details. With its chalky feel, our Estate Emulsion finish adds soft texture for that classic Farrow & Ball look.
Conservatory by Design Alchemy
Once thought to be a design faux pas, red and pink is a combination now soaring in popularity. And this captivating conservatory shows why. Created by Design Alchemy, this sophisticated room painted in Setting Plaster and Bamboozle makes a striking statement without being overwhelming. Plus, the tough Modern Eggshell finish on the floor and woodwork protects the look from scuffs and stains.
Dining Room by Colourdrunk Designs
We always adore a Full Gloss ceiling and this beautiful Cook’s Blue example by Colourdrunk Designs is one of our favourites. The combination of the colour and the high shine finish creates a sky-like look that makes the room feel light, bright and open. The paint choice also perfectly complements the historic murals that adorn the walls, effortlessly linking them with the wider room.
Sunroom by Centered by Design
Bright and uplifting, this sunroom really does feel warm and sunny. The team at Centered by Design have used classic Wimborne White on the walls with Dayroom Yellow on the trellis for added depth and detail.
Owners’ Suite by Isabel Ladd Interiors
In the owner’s suite, Isabel Ladd has fully embraced her “more is more”, maximalist approach. With her signature style, she’s created a haven packed with personality, pattern and colour. In the sitting room alone, Shallot, Romesco and Cardamom from our Carte Blanche collection creates a vibrant scheme. She’s even paired ultra-matte Dead Flat with high-shine Full Gloss — a wonderful way to create extra interest.
Guest Suite by Gray Space Interiors
A home away from home, this guest suite is impressively inviting. The sitting room is colour drenched in Oval Room Blue to create a cosy cocoon for visitors to relax in, while the Full Gloss ceiling bounces light around to keep the space from feeling too cramped. In the bedroom, the Gray Space Interiors team used Sulking Room Pink to complement the furnishings and ensure a harmonious feel.
Petite Room by Kipling House Interiors
It may be small in size but this space certainly makes a statement. Colour drenched with rich Brinjal in multi-surface Dead Flat, Kipling House Interiors has transformed this hidden nook into a jewelry box of delight. It even includes an in-built bar for entertaining.
Salon by Sagrada Studios
Adorned in deep purple Brinjal, sophisticated Sulking Room Pink and rich red Incarnadine, this salon is designed to be an escape. Created by the Sagrada Studios team, the space was inspired by traditional, women’s retiring rooms, which were places of retreat and sanctuary. Using Modern Eggshell on the walls and woodwork brings an added layer of interest and durability.
Party Pad by Emma Beryl Interiors
The perfect place for pool parties, this space next to the swimming pool is vibrant and fun. From a disco ball chandelier to the checkerboard floor, every element makes you smile. Using Picture Gallery Red across nearly every surface, designer Emma Beryl has transformed this bold shade into a warm neutral. Our tough Modern Eggshell finish makes sure the room is tough enough for wet feet, midnight feasts and dancing the night away.
