painting lounge walls white - WHICH white?!

[beanhead24]

we have the dreaded magnolia throughout at the mo but I am going to start going through the house with white instead, starting with the lounge.

I want to get the wipeable paint this time as we seem to be very grubby & I need to be able to wipe down easily. So which brand and which white? Is brilliant white TOO white for walls? Does it look too harsh?

Clueless so please help!

I am a big fan of Dulux "Timeless". Our sitting room (and soon bedroom) is painted this colour, mixed in a Valspar "premium" base.
Timeless is not too bright but not too cream. A bit warmer than pure brilliant white.

Valspar is the range that B&Q now carry for mixing up colours. You can tell them the shade you want from another range and the machine knows what it is. The "Premium" base is really durable, a year later looks brand new still.

Ditto dulux timeless.

Timeless is really nice!

We've got Timeless too.

Not a lot of difference between it and the brilliant white of our woodwork to be honest. I sometimes wish we'd gone for a darker creamier colour.

Also love Timeless

Natural calico is very nice.

Another one for timeless. It's gorgeous.

Morning all,

We're moving this thread over to our Home Decoration topic at the OP's request.

Have been using Timeless throughout house as we go. Kitchen soon to go Timeless too!

[yomellamoHelly]

Should add we used Calico in the previous house everywhere, but I don't feel it suits this one.

Dulux white cotton is nice too. We've just used it upstairs & it's not too white.

[MrsPnut]

We have timeless too, and am about to do the big study and playroom in it.

[minesapintofwine]

'Timeless' here too! I painted all the upstairs rooms with it and like it so much I'm just going to paint it all through the downstairs when I get round to it

We've just done our entire house in Dulux brilliant white. I was a bit worried that it would be too harsh, but I love it.

We chose tiffany wall and ceiling lights to brighten up the lounge/diner and have some beautiful big bright paintings and prints hanging on the walls. It looks bright and clean. I think the key with doing everything white is to get the accessories right. Then it looks lovely.
