Rooms That Suit Truly Inspired

• Living and family rooms: a light shade keeps everyday spaces bright and sociable.
• Kitchens and kids' rooms: lime brings a lively, energetic lift to busy spaces.
• Study and work corners: an even, bright wall keeps a workspace feeling open.
• Bedrooms: pale walls feel restful and make mornings a little easier.

What Goes With Truly Inspired

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

• White and pale grey - to balance the brightness.
• Natural wood - for a relaxed, fresh feel.
• Soft teal - as a cool companion.

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

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Truly Inspired 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.

Before You Start

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