Colour Combinations

Every combination is built from three surfaces: the largest is the wall, the middle one the furniture, the smallest the accent. We paired the colours by how they relate on the colour wheel, and wrote next to each one why they work together.

The room images are digitally generated visualisations. The wall, furniture and vase colours were matched to the real colour code of each paint; tones may vary slightly from screen to screen.

Harvest Vine: Walnut Green wall, Purple Lily armchair, Drover Yellow vase

Complementary

Harvest Vine

The pale green of an olive leaf, the deep purple of grapes and the yellow of autumn sun. The cool calm of a vineyard house after the harvest.

  1. Wall Walnut Green 526
  2. Furniture Purple Lily 034
  3. Accent Drover Yellow 056

Why they work Green and purple sit directly opposite each other on the colour wheel. The soft olive wall stays quiet, so the purple furniture stands out without shouting; the yellow accent eases the tension between the two.

Where Study, bookcase, a reading corner with a single armchair.

Ember on Ice: Steel Blue wall, Blood Sapphire armchair, Aquamarine vase

Complementary

Ember on Ice

A deep red in front of a cold steel-blue wall. A sharp contrast but never dull; the turquoise accent lets the room breathe.

  1. Wall Steel Blue 052
  2. Furniture Blood Sapphire 701
  3. Accent Aquamarine 009

Why they work Blue and red are opposite ends of the wheel. The wall is light and cool, the furniture dark and warm, so the eye goes straight to the furniture and the room finds its focus on its own.

Where Dining room, display cabinet, a single statement piece.

Goes to cart: 052 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 701 Liquid Leaf 40 ml · 009 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Cherry Orchard: Cool Air wall, Sour Cherry armchair, Aquamarine vase

Complementary

Cherry Orchard

A misty morning green and ripe cherry. Airy yet confident; it makes a small room feel bigger and pulls a large room together.

  1. Wall Cool Air 070
  2. Furniture Sour Cherry 076
  3. Accent Aquamarine 009

Why they work A soft green wall makes the cherry red look more vivid than it is — that is how opposite colours wake each other up. The aquamarine accent is related to the green, so the trio holds together.

Where Kitchen cabinets, chairs, a serving trolley.

Goes to cart: 070 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 076 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 009 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Seaside Café: Powder Orange wall, Blue Flow armchair, Mustard vase

Complementary

Seaside Café

A powder-toned wall, a blue that looks fresh from the sea and a mustard accent. Late summer: the sun has set but the air is still warm.

  1. Wall Powder Orange 021
  2. Furniture Blue Flow 051
  3. Accent Mustard 006

Why they work Orange and blue are a complementary pair. Because the wall is so light, the blue furniture becomes the centre of the room; mustard is related to the orange rather than the blue, so all three tell one story.

Where Hallway cabinet, children's room, a storage chest.

Goes to cart: 021 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 051 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 006 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Rose Garden: Pink Rose wall, Dark Green armchair, Mulberry vase

Complementary

Rose Garden

A light pink wall and a deep leaf green. As if the garden had moved indoors; the mulberry accent balances the sweetness.

  1. Wall Pink Rose 035
  2. Furniture Dark Green 017
  3. Accent Mulberry 058

Why they work Pink and green are complementary. The wall is very light and the furniture very dark; that strong difference in lightness keeps the furniture crisp, in photos and in the room.

Where Bedroom, chest of drawers, dressing table.

Goes to cart: 035 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 017 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 058 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Terracotta and Sky: Pastel Blue wall, Red Rose armchair, Sky Blue vase

Soft complementary

Terracotta and Sky

Burnt terracotta red in front of a sky-blue wall. The best-known pairing of Mediterranean houses; nobody gets it wrong.

  1. Wall Pastel Blue 062
  2. Furniture Red Rose 028
  3. Accent Sky Blue 007

Why they work A soft complementary: contrast without collision. As the red deepens it does not spoil the coolness of the blue, it simply warms it.

Where Balcony cabinet, chairs, plant pots and wooden crates.

Goes to cart: 062 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 028 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 007 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Dusk: Lilac Shimmer wall, Emerald Shade armchair, Persian Indigo vase

Complementary

Dusk

A lilac wall, a dark olive body and an indigo accent. The moment the evening light leaves the room.

  1. Wall Lilac Shimmer 609
  2. Furniture Emerald Shade 620
  3. Accent Persian Indigo 011

Why they work The purple of lilac and the green of olive sit at opposite ends. Both are low in saturation, so the contrast stays gentle; the indigo accent supports the purple and adds depth.

Where Bedroom, bedside table, lamp base.

Goes to cart: 609 DAZZLE 100 ml · 620 DAZZLE 100 ml · 011 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Mediterranean Noon: Honey Foam wall, Clear Lake armchair, Apricot vase

Soft complementary

Mediterranean Noon

A honey-foam wall and the blue of a lake. The apricot accent recalls the spot where the midday sun hits the wall.

  1. Wall Honey Foam 512
  2. Furniture Clear Lake 026
  3. Accent Apricot 018

Why they work Yellow and blue are a soft complementary pair. The yellow wall multiplies the light, the blue furniture cuts it; together they keep the room both bright and cool.

Where Kitchen, breakfast table, the back of a shelf.

Goes to cart: 512 AURA 100 ml · 026 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 018 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Pastel Sunday: Misty Rose wall, Azure Blue armchair, Mustard vase

Soft complementary

Pastel Sunday

A misty rose wall, a blue borrowed from the sky and a mustard accent. As unhurried as a Sunday morning.

  1. Wall Misty Rose 013
  2. Furniture Azure Blue 065
  3. Accent Mustard 006

Why they work The warm pink of the wall is balanced by the cool blue of the furniture; the mustard accent stands between them and completes the transition.

Where Living room, coffee table, the back of a bookcase.

Goes to cart: 013 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 065 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 006 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Bougainvillea: Antique Rose wall, Magenta armchair, Sea Green vase

Neighbouring tones

Bougainvillea

An antique rose wall and bougainvillea-pink furniture. The sea-green accent is a drop of coolness in all that warmth.

  1. Wall Antique Rose 607
  2. Furniture Magenta 004
  3. Accent Sea Green 507

Why they work Wall and furniture come from the same colour family, one faded and one vivid. Being related, they never clash; everything rests on the balance of light and dark.

Where Entrance, mirror frame, console table.

Goes to cart: 607 DAZZLE 100 ml · 004 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 507 AURA 100 ml

Plum Blossom: Mint Spring wall, Purple Plum armchair, Neon Green vase

Complementary

Plum Blossom

Deep plum purple in front of a mint-green wall. The neon green accent is small, but it is what holds the room up.

  1. Wall Mint Spring 615
  2. Furniture Purple Plum 022
  3. Accent Neon Green 057

Why they work Green and purple are opposite ends. The wall is light and cool, the furniture dark and deep; the neon accent comes from the wall's own hue, so it never looks out of place — it only lifts.

Where Teenager's room, desk, shelving.

Goes to cart: 615 DAZZLE 100 ml · 022 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 057 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Mulberry Tree: Asparagus wall, Mulberry armchair, Neon Green vase

Soft complementary

Mulberry Tree

A fresh leaf-green wall and a mulberry-purple body. Like sitting under a tree in midsummer.

  1. Wall Asparagus 044
  2. Furniture Mulberry 058
  3. Accent Neon Green 057

Why they work A soft complementary — the classic green and purple pairing with its edge taken off. Two greens (wall and accent) frame the purple in the middle.

Where Kitchen, pantry cupboard, chairs.

Goes to cart: 044 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 058 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 057 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Melon: Melon wall, Copper armchair, Sky Blue vase

Neighbouring tones

Melon

A melon-coloured wall and copper furniture. Both are warm; the sky-blue accent is there so it never feels heavy.

  1. Wall Melon 067
  2. Furniture Copper 054
  3. Accent Sky Blue 007

Why they work Wall and furniture are neighbouring tones; the transition is soft, so the eye does not snag and a small room looks more spacious. The blue accent alone balances all that warmth.

Where Corridor, shoe cabinet, a small room.

Goes to cart: 067 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 054 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 007 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Fresh Grass: White Pearl wall, Fluorescent Green armchair, Persian Indigo vase

Neutral base, single accent

Fresh Grass

A crisp white wall and a single vivid green piece. The most affordable way to give a room character without touching the rest.

  1. Wall White Pearl 501
  2. Furniture Fluorescent Green 621
  3. Accent Persian Indigo 011

Why they work Neutral base, single accent. The white wall claims nothing, so the green reads more vivid than it is; the indigo accent gives the green depth.

Where Rented homes, a single furniture makeover, the office.

Goes to cart: 501 AURA 100 ml · 621 DAZZLE 100 ml · 011 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Steppe: Sahara Yellow wall, Steppe Clay armchair, Blue Flow vase

Neighbouring tones

Steppe

A wall the yellow of sun-dried grass and a clay-coloured body. The blue accent is the sky above the steppe.

  1. Wall Sahara Yellow 515
  2. Furniture Steppe Clay 077
  3. Accent Blue Flow 051

Why they work Wall and furniture come from the same earth; as neighbouring tones they form a calm whole. The blue comes from the opposite side, so on its own it is enough.

Where Living room, wooden chest, bookcase.

Goes to cart: 515 AURA 100 ml · 077 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 051 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Pine and Rose: Pink Panorama wall, Natural Pine armchair, Mulberry vase

Soft complementary

Pine and Rose

Deep pine green in front of a pink wall. An unexpected pair that looks entirely natural once it settles in.

  1. Wall Pink Panorama 602
  2. Furniture Natural Pine 023
  3. Accent Mulberry 058

Why they work A soft complementary. The pink wall makes the pine look deeper and the pine makes the pink look cleaner; the mulberry accent is the in-between colour that ties them together.

Where Bedroom, wardrobe, picture frames.

Goes to cart: 602 DAZZLE 100 ml · 023 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 058 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Ruby: Almond Blossom wall, Ruby Red armchair, Sea Green vase

Neutral base, single accent

Ruby

An almond-blossom wall and a single ruby-red piece. One bold move in a simple room.

  1. Wall Almond Blossom 623
  2. Furniture Ruby Red 010
  3. Accent Sea Green 507

Why they work Neutral base, single accent. The wall is almost colourless, so the red takes all the attention; the sea-green accent cools it and keeps it from looking cheap.

Where Living room, a single armchair, a door.

Goes to cart: 623 DAZZLE 100 ml · 010 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 507 AURA 100 ml

Lighthouse: Cloud Blue wall, Carnation armchair, Blue Flow vase

Soft complementary

Lighthouse

A light sea-blue wall and a carnation-red body. A coastal town, whitewashed walls, a red door.

  1. Wall Cloud Blue 043
  2. Furniture Carnation 514
  3. Accent Blue Flow 051

Why they work A soft complementary. Two blues (wall and accent) frame the red; the red is medium in depth, so it does not spoil the airiness of the wall.

Where Bathroom cabinet, kitchen, chairs.

Goes to cart: 043 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 514 AURA 100 ml · 051 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Spark: Pure White wall, Spark armchair, Cloud Blue vase

Neutral base, single accent

Spark

An off-white wall and a single flame. The whole room is quiet; only that one piece speaks.

  1. Wall Pure White 069
  2. Furniture Spark 601
  3. Accent Cloud Blue 043

Why they work Neutral base, single accent. Orange-red is the most attention-grabbing tone there is; used sparingly it looks expensive, used everywhere it becomes tiring.

Where Office, stool, the back of a shelf.

Goes to cart: 069 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 601 DAZZLE 100 ml · 043 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Stone Garden: Pink Granite wall, Wasabi Heat armchair, Pastel Purple vase

Neutral base, single accent

Stone Garden

A pinkish granite-grey wall, a wasabi-green body and a lilac accent. Urban and calm.

  1. Wall Pink Granite 014
  2. Furniture Wasabi Heat 710
  3. Accent Pastel Purple 038

Why they work The neutral wall makes room for the green; the lilac accent draws out the pink hidden in the wall, so the three look related rather than random.

Where Office, filing cabinet, console table.

Goes to cart: 014 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 710 Liquid Leaf 40 ml · 038 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Willow Shade: Willow Bark wall, Glacier armchair, Apricot vase

Triadic balance

Willow Shade

A willow-bark yellow wall, a glacier-blue body and an apricot accent. All three are soft; none overpowers the others.

  1. Wall Willow Bark 025
  2. Furniture Glacier 516
  3. Accent Apricot 018

Why they work Triadic balance: the three sit at equal distances on the colour wheel. The room comes out lively, yet no corner of it shouts.

Where Children's room, play corner, shelving.

Goes to cart: 025 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 516 AURA 100 ml · 018 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Antique Dealer: Old Copper wall, Saxe Blue armchair, Golden Sand vase

Triadic balance

Antique Dealer

An old copper wall, a Saxon-blue body and a golden sand accent. Aged, but well kept.

  1. Wall Old Copper 524
  2. Furniture Saxe Blue 016
  3. Accent Golden Sand 614

Why they work Triadic balance. The warmth of copper and the weight of Saxon blue hold each other in place; the gold accent brings out the metallic tone the two have in common.

Where Dining room, sideboard, frames and mirrors.

Goes to cart: 524 AURA 100 ml · 016 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 614 DAZZLE 100 ml

Atlas: Globe Blue wall, Sky Steel armchair, Drover Yellow vase

Neutral base, single accent

Atlas

A globe-blue wall, a steel-indigo body and a yellow accent. The colours of an old map.

  1. Wall Globe Blue 060
  2. Furniture Sky Steel 704
  3. Accent Drover Yellow 056

Why they work A calm, cool base with a single warm accent on top. The yellow stays small, so it does not break the coolness — it simply brings the room to life.

Where Study, bookcase, map frame.

Goes to cart: 060 Multisurfaces 100 ml · 704 Liquid Leaf 40 ml · 056 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Cinnamon Milk: Cinnamon Honey wall, Alloy Bronze armchair, Clear Lake vase

One colour, two depths

Cinnamon Milk

A cinnamon-honey wall and a bronze body one shade deeper. The blue accent alone wakes up the whole palette.

  1. Wall Cinnamon Honey 618
  2. Furniture Alloy Bronze 622
  3. Accent Clear Lake 026

Why they work One colour, two depths: the same hue at different darkness. A colour clash is impossible; everything rests on the balance of light and dark, and here that balance is right.

Where Bedroom, bedside table, cupboard doors.

Goes to cart: 618 DAZZLE 100 ml · 622 DAZZLE 100 ml · 026 Multisurfaces 100 ml

Moss and Ivory: Ivory wall, Moss armchair, Pastel Purple vase

One colour, two depths

Moss and Ivory

An ivory wall, a moss-green body and a lilac accent. Natural, understated and made to last.

  1. Wall Ivory 075
  2. Furniture Moss 030
  3. Accent Pastel Purple 038

Why they work Two depths from the same warm family. These are the combinations you never tire of; the lilac accent sits there as a small surprise.

Where Any room, wooden furniture, frames.
