Neutral greys
These neutral grey paint shades, many found in historic properties, are derived from naturally occurring materials. Based on mixtures of black and white pigments, with other minor colours added for nuance, these stony colours create a perfect balance between warm and cool in many different lighting conditions. To add a warm undertone to your grey paint scheme, choose Fescue.
Using dark greys in smaller rooms can create a sense of intimacy, and an encompassing feel. If there is little natural light. For a calming and sophisticated feel, consider a deep rich grey such as Vulcan, which is an inherently strong, charismatic, charcoal grey with a little warmth retained. Vulcan offers the sophistication and boldness of a charcoal grey, but has the perfect mid-tone balance, ensuring it never makes a space feel cold or austere.
Popular for the decoration of urban apartments, this choice of grey paint has been used in both classical and contemporary settings for many years and still remains popular. Ideal selections are Gauze or Shallows.
The use of warm greys with a hint of umber or natural earth colour has always been the go-to choice for interior schemes. The ancient use of white tinted with soot and ochre to produce a pleasing, warm neutral has been the mainstay of interior decoration since Georgian times and remains the most popular grey choice today.
Choose Portland Stone or its derivatives for a warm grey scheme. These shades are formulated with a complex mix of different pigments, making them ideal when other more strident colours are used in the room. Alternatively, for a less warm option, choose Flint.
A subtle hint of green within grey brings an air of natural beauty to your space. Redolent of stone or of the outdoors, these colours add both calm and solidity to any project. Choose Pearl Colour as pale colours combined with Serpentine and Grey Moss, for a sympathetic strong highlight to the same grey interior scheme.
Choosing a grey paint with a hint of rose brings a touch of delicacy to a room, its warming and pleasant influence on a room is not overpowering and adds an air of cosiness. Choose Rubine Ashes or Dash of Soot, especially if you have accessories with the strong component of red as this will bring harmony and smoothness to a scheme.
