Croquet (2556): Rooms, Pairings and Finish

Croquet (2556) is a natural green from Nerolac paints, a light, easy tone that suits full walls in most rooms. The fresh, green undertone means it works best alongside off-whites and natural materials.

Where Croquet Works

• Living rooms: keeps shared spaces open, bright and welcoming.
• Reading corners and studies: a natural tone that aids focus.
• Bedrooms: calm and restful, and easy to wake up to.
• Home offices: an even, bright backdrop that aids focus.
• Kitchens: keeps cooking spaces clean, fresh and roomy.

Colours That Pair With Croquet

Build a whole-home palette around Croquet as a soft base to build on:

• Natural oak and rattan - echoes the outdoors.
• Terracotta or ochre - a warm, earthy accent.
• Charcoal or matte black - definition on frames and fittings.

Carry one of these into adjoining rooms to keep the whole home feeling cohesive.

Lighting & Finish

Lighting: Croquet stays light and even all day, lifting darker rooms.

Finish: Matte in living rooms and bedrooms for a soft, premium feel; washable satin in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Practical Tips

Try a sample pot on more than one wall before deciding, as green shades can look quite different in morning and evening light. Two thin coats give the most even result; save some paint for touch-ups in high-traffic spots.
