What the experts say...

Designers and stylists share their views 

‘Damson brings a warm and inviting feeling when used as an immersive colour across walls and woodwork. Incorporating a lighter shade on the ceiling will give a feeling of height – avoid a harsh white and choose a coordinating lilac instead.’

ANDY GREENALL, HEAD OF DESIGN, PAINT & PAPER LIBRARY

‘Reminiscent of the Renaissance period, this rich hue creates the perfect balance of opulence and drama. Pair it with accents of brushed brass and velvet for the ultimate glam scheme.’
