F&B paint for small North facing bedroom?

8 replies

Hi

Any suggestions for a paint for a small single (spare) bedroom? It's north facing and quite cold.

Victorian house so high ceiling,
has a light beige carpet and quite a lot of built in woodwork which I want to re- paint in white.

Any suggestions of a paint that would warm the room up a bit?

Thanks!

Dimity is really nice - we have it in a similar room and it works really well. The light seems to change it depending on the time of day - it looks pinker sometimes. I have it with walnut furniture and floral bedding

Thank you - will get a sample, looks like a nice warm neutral colour!

Try looking at the videos from Patrick on their Instagram. Like this one for a room with poor light.

Does it have to be F & B? Crown decorating centres will match all F & B colours at a fraction of the cost.

I just love the F&B colours- but our painter gets a colour match of it.

Dimity is quite magnolia-esque. We have in our kitchen and it's lighter than I thought. Have a look at joa's white as well, it's a couple of shades darker but in the same colour family.

If you love f and b, use them, not a colour match. In the grand scheme of house renovations, it's not that expensive, and you will get the exact colour you want. I'm never convinced that colour match is the same quality.

Purbeck Stone has thrown a lovely warmth into our north facing room - gloss white woodwork has really brought out the warmer tones in it and it’s made the room feel very cosy.
