colour chamelion



 Heavy Metal 427     Imperial Mist 403    Diamond White 419

We have refined our colour scheme down to 3 for the walls, skirting boards and ceiling. I mentioned in a previous post that we wanted to stick with cool greys along with black and white as our main colour palette. Almost any colour combination will match this palette, and so we think it's a good choice whether we live in the apartment, or we rent it out to another lucky resident. 

The colours are Diamond White 419, Imperial Mist 403 and Heavy Metal 427 from British Paints. It's an Australian company (as the name suggests ??) with an excellent product so it was an easy choice. Diamond White 419 will be used on ceilings and skirtings, doors and frames. Imperial Mist 403 is to be painted on the walls of the kitchen, lounge/dining and hallway. For the bedroom, we are changing the mood a little and going for a deeper darker palette of Heavy Metal 427 on the walls. There will be no feature wall in my house, an awful concept that should be left in the early 90's. We will colour all four walls of the bedroom, and should complement the mirrored built-ins and the bright window over-looking the garden perfectly.
