An off white with a slight green hue
This off white was first created for the pretty garden room of a discerning Dr James with a fresh underlying green tone. The slightest hint of green creates a calm, soothing and airy feel which is particularly useful for darker interiors. When used with no contrasts, James White transforms the space into the most light and tranquil of rooms, so it is often favoured in the bedrooms of the super stressed. It will look greener when used in contrast with All White and in north facing rooms.

Lockdown living room
I am shielding at the moment and decided I would paint my living room. It has been white for a few years now and I wanted a change. My small cottage has a north facing living room and is quite dark. I was looking for an off white colour. I sent for some samples from farrow and ball and by accident I has chosen James White. I tested it on my fireplace wall and loved it. I ordered a 5l pot. The colour is a soft green very subtle. It only needed one coat as I used a small brush and the paint was so rich and creamy to apply. I am thinking of painting my small kitchen walls with James White too. Love the quality and the beautiful colour .

Ideal for a cooling bedroom
I used this as a wall colour for the bedrooms (Matched with All white for Ceilings, Castle Gray for wood and Down Pipe for doors)
I wanted to maintain the brightness of the previous all white colour scheme, but add a cooling element as in the summer it can get quite warm in my top floor flat.
Im pleased with the colour as its not too cold for the evenings and using the Castle Gray as accent on the woodwork keeps it balanced. Soothing as the makers suggest.
The paint does need a bit of extra work to cover filler, and I have had to touch up occasionally in a narrow space by the bed in the 2nd bedroom which seems easily marked
