Farrow and Ball certainly nailed it some years ago with their colour change, but today I was looking at another company’s colour chart.
The the Dulux Heritage colour chart. The chart itself, is a work of art, and the Dulux Heritage colour range is a worthy alternative to Farrow and Ball’s.
Like F&B, the Dulux colours evocative names – Swedish White, Copenhagen Blue, Veranda Green, Fresh Flour, Fitzrovia Red.
Across the bottom of the Heritage chart is an excellent choice of whites. Grecian White is one I’ve used with great success, and I’m looking forward to using but Wiltshire White. My wife has chosen this for our kitchen. I can let you know how that goes next time I write.
The Dulux chart is divided up horizontally into Pale Tones, Mid Tones, Deep Tones, and Whites at the bottom.
Vertically, the columns of colours are laid out with colours that will work together, i.e., the upper and lower parts of a wall, if different colours from the same column, will work together.
The chart is worth a good study and designed to make your decision making a pleasure.
I hope you will have fun with this suggestion and if you would like some help choosing colours and getting them onto your wall, please give us a call, at JP Taffe Ltd.
Good luck
Joe
