Whether it’s sprucing up the bathroom or doing a top-to-bottom renovation of a period home, everyday emulsion is your go-to paint for almost all interior decorating. Smooth, thick and easy to apply, it also comes in a vast range of colours to suit every room. The low-sheen factor gives you that silky smooth effect with minimal light reflectivity, so it’s perfect for home offices where you want to cut out any screen glare from your laptop. Our top tip: go for a blue colour that helps to improve concentration and focus to create a productive space. Perfectly partner it with a rich cream to lift it and make it feel comfortable and inviting. 

For living rooms, green is a popular colour to imbue a sense of peace and tranquillity. Combine it with brown for an earthy, rustic appearance, and add interest with a bold landscape wall mural or signature wallpaper. In a chic modern home, grey brings out the best in almost any combination, playing well with both warm and cool colours. Or add a dash of pink to a bedroom for a whimsical touch, teamed with creams and neutrals for that sophisticated touch.
