DARK PAINT EDIT

Thinking of painting your room a new colour? Don't be predictable and choose from the palette of light shades. We challenge you to embrace a dark, moody hue and create that feeling of cocooning - just in time for autumn. Once you have chosen your dark hue for the walls get creative with texture and pops of colour for your furniture and accessories.
