Best Spaces for French Silver

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Study and work corners: an even, bright wall keeps a workspace feeling open.
• Bedrooms: pale walls feel restful and make mornings a little easier.
• Kitchens and dining areas: a fresh, clean tone suits spaces where you cook and eat.

Building a Palette With French Silver

For a whole-home look, use French Silver as a base to build the rest of the palette on and bring in:

• Crisp white - for a clean, layered look.
• Soft blue or sage - for a hint of colour.
• Charcoal or black - for contrast on details.

Threading one pairing from space to space keeps everything looking deliberate.

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: French Silver keeps its crisp, cool look in daylight and turns a little softer under warm bulbs.

Best finish: A matt finish looks smooth and modern in living rooms and bedrooms; use a washable soft-sheen in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Worth Knowing

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as cool neutral shifts with the light in a room. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
