Dulux natural white
“Natural WhiteTM is a warm white and its versatility spans across new and old properties, contemporary homes, as well as traditional. It is an excellent choice if you are giving your home a facelift before sale as it is easy to work with when styling with fresh plants and light coloured furniture.” – Sara Chamberlain, The Real Estate Stylist
Dulux Whisper White
“Whisper White is warm, welcoming and has substance, and period properties – Victorian and Edwardian homes – bene t from this white given its depth. In a space that doesn’t get much bright sunlight, Dulux Whisper White can really lift the room.” – Lucy Feagins, The Design Files
Taubmans Cotton Sheets
Dulux Antique White U.S.A.®
“Antique White U.S.A.® is my hero of all whites as it is fresh and crisp without being austere and clinical, and tends to work in most spaces despite varied conditions. A total all-rounder that never disappoints!” – Julia Green, Greenhouse Interiors
Dulux Hog Bristle® Quarter
“Hog Bristle® Quarter is a beautiful warm white that has the slightest ‘biscuit’ undertone – it has always been my go-to when creating cozy spaces. I have seen this colour work beautifully in heritage homes, but equally in spacious lofts to avoid austerity.” – Julia Green, Greenhouse Interiors
Dulux vivid white
“For me, I don’t like a white to throw too much yellow or too much blue – so Dulux Vivid WhiteTM is perfect as it sits in the middle. It is the purest white you can get.” – Bonnie Hindmarsh, Three Birds Renovations
Taubmans Whisper White
“This is perfect for interiors with a lot of natural light, it isn’t so bright that it will blind you when the sun hits the wall and still feels warm and inviting.” – Mariah Madder, Folk Studio
Dulux White on WhiteTM
“White on WhiteTM is a cooler-toned white that is clean and energising, suited to modern homes with timber or concrete flooring, as well as hard surface areas like the kitchen and bathroom.” – Bonnie Hindmarsh, Three Birds Renovations
Dulux Lexicon® Quarter
“Lexicon® Quarter is a versatile white that has a slightly blueish undertone – it is crisp, clean and bright and works beautifully in modern spaces, as well as a backdrop for colourful and eclectic art, furnishings and homewares.” – Lucy Feagins, The Design Files
Porters Paint Popcorn
“I am loving this shade at the moment – it’s the perfect combination of creamy and fresh and gives a softness to contemporary interior spaces. I’m currently working on the interior of my own home and have selected this colour because it sits beside the plywood joinery and the Victorian Ash flooring we’ll have, really well.” – Natsia Gladushchenko, mural artist
Dulux Lexicon®
“Lexicon® is a bold white and pairs brilliantly with timber flooring, exposed brick and polished concrete. It is a perfect shade for displaying your artwork collection or bouncing around lots of natural sunlight.” – Amy Chamberlain-Primrose, The Real Estate Stylist
