Choosing Whites and Neutrals with Haymes Paint
We recently chatted to our preferred paint supplier, Haymes Paint, about how to best choose white and neutral paint colours for your new home. With a wealth of different shades available it can be a challenge to find a neutral or white tone that suits the majority of your spaces, and they had some wonderful tips to help you find the perfect white or neutral shade.
Warm Tones
Often whites and neutrals can be easily explained by using a warm or cool undertone. Warm toned natural colours are best described as relaxed and easy to live with. They work well in both traditional and contemporary spaces.
Haymes’ colour ‘Minimalist 1’ is the perfect white and adds a sense of style to any space.
The perfect blank canvas for any style of home is Haymes’ colour ‘Whitewash 1’. This stunning colour creates a soft and beautiful white that is natural and organic.
Haymes’ colour ‘Pulp White 1’ is a quintessentially warm white with an obvious cream base. Through casual and relaxed vibes ‘Pulp White 1’ is the perfect colour for ocean lovers and those looking for soft nurturing warm tones in their home.
Cool Tones
Haymes Paint tell us that cooler neutrals can be harder to get right which is why they are not as common as warmer colours, however they suggest the right mix of tints used in cool toned hues can create a bright and airy colour solution.
A popular choice for our clients is Haymes’ colour ‘Greyology 1’ which is made to complement a contemporary home. A crisp and fresh look and feel can be created in your space with this cool white.
If you are after a bright white that leaves your home feeling contemporary and edgy then Haymes’ colour ‘Classic Grey 2’ is your hue. It fits into many variations of home styles.
