Seven colours to consider when painting your dining room
Keep it bright with Natural White™
Natural White™ is a soft and neutral white. Its versatility allows it to brighten almost any space, making it an ideal choice for main walls.
The classic nature invites personalisation through furniture and décor, allowing you to dress the space with funky features like a Sassy divider, making modern touches really pop.
Add drama with Mt Inaccessible
Mt Inaccessible is a dark charcoal with a brownish undertone that brings a welcome sense of drama to the dining room, bringing depth and sophistication with it.
The colour beautifully complements natural wood tones and metallic accents, and pairs effortlessly with multiple styles.
Create depth with Ruahine
On the other end of the spectrum is Ruahine a beautiful eucalyptus green that brings refreshing vitality to every meal. Not only does it pair elegantly with subtle neutrals and crisp whites but it achieves maximum impact on main walls, creating a sense of tranquillity.
Complement this calming colour with light woods and natural textures, or take it further with a Kimberley Sea feature, like this bold bulkhead.
Subdued sophistication with Rice Crop
For a minimalist look that still feels cosy, Rice Crop is a warm white with yellow undertones that blankets any space in an inviting atmosphere. Coupled with warm, earthy tones and natural materials, it can create a no-frills space that’s still undeniably chic.
Use it as a base for a variety of styles or inject a rich colour like Finnegan to give it added complexity
Infuse elegance with Discretion
This dusty, reddy brown is a midtone colour that presents an appetising accent, pairing effortlessly with warm neutrals like Clay Pipe Half and Sandfly Point Half.
It creates a sophisticated neutral space that invites a range of styles, textures and personal flourishes.
Bring warmth with Buff It
For a timeless look of softness and warmth, Buff It is the natural choice. This neutral has a slight beige undertone that has an illuminating and inviting effect, reminiscent of a year-round summer.
It brings an added layer of elegance to traditional furniture and metallic accents, making it the perfect base for countless interior styles.
Stay neutral with Pancake Mix
Just as indulgent in nature as its name, Pancake Mix is a beautiful soft neutral with an apricot base, with the ability to make any space inviting, it creates a welcomed sense of balance and evokes a modern feel.
Pair it with a soft grey white like Grey Reflection for an even richer contrast.
