Best Spaces for Simplicity Stone

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.

• Bedrooms: pale walls feel restful and make mornings a little easier.
• Study and work corners: an even, bright wall keeps a workspace feeling open.

Building a Palette With Simplicity Stone

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

• Charcoal or black - for contrast on details.
• Soft blue or sage - for a hint of colour.
• Warm wood - to stop it feeling cold.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Simplicity Stone warms up under lamps and afternoon sun, and stays soft and light in north-facing rooms.

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

Brush a tester onto your own walls first - cool neutral can look different at noon and by lamplight. Pale tones cover easily; just keep a little paint back for scuffs in busy spots.
