Our Modern and Estate ranges are also certified toy safe in accordance with EU Toy Safety Standards,* giving you the peace of mind to transform walls, cots, and even toys.

Our carefully curated palette of 132 shades, with an intriguing story behind each colour name, will help you to choose colours you love for your home.


Calming Neutrals

When it comes to designing a room that’ll stand the test of time through your little one’s first years, toddlerhood and beyond, a neutral nursery scheme is tough to beat. As well as creating a calming, nurturing space for sleep, using a neutral background means that, as their tastes change, so can the colour scheme – it’s all a case of swapping in bright and fun accessories that suit their emerging personalities. Try baby-safe furniture paint Modern Eggshell for an instant update to well-loved pieces.

Marvellous Murals

You don’t have to be Michelangelo to create imagination-sparking spaces – a playful palette, a bright idea and a little patience are all you need. Throw in a roll of masking tape for impressively crisp edges, and you’ve got wall art mastered. Try a grey-on-grey mountainscape for a view that’s both striking and soothing, or combine brights and neutrals in blocks and stripes for a cheerful look.


*Our Modern and Estate ranges are independently tested and certified toy-safe in accordance with Safety of Toys Part 3: Migration of certain elements (EN 71-3:2019+A1:2021). This covers all paints in our range, excluding specialist finish Casein Distemper and our Wood Floor Primer & Undercoat, Wood Knot & Resin Blocking Primer & Undercoat, and Metal Primer & Undercoat.
