In his first book, our founder, architectural historian, eco ‘worrier’ and colourman Edward Bulmer takes readers on an in-depth tour of his work in some of Britain’s finest homes including Althorp, Goodwood, Pitshill House and Broughton Hall, along with his own stunning Queen Anne manor house, Court of Noke.
Edward Bulmer is part of a new generation of designers working on historical houses with an eye on designs that appeal to contemporary families and active lifestyles while at the same time respecting the classical traditions that have made the British country house style so popular today. With a modern eye, Bulmer combines his love for the well-worn and timeless, with natural textures as well as rich new color palettes and finishes, as embodied by his line of all-natural, toxic-free paints that embrace both traditional and eclectic tastes.

We knew that part of the Forge would be painted in a yellow but all the samples that we tried were disappointing: too grey, too flat, too insipid, too primary. The bones of the Forge are C12th so we needed a colour that felt ‘old’ and serious whilst still being unusual and warm. Trumpington is …

Excellent customer service! Emma was so incredibly helpful with her colour consultancy advice and always very quick at getting back to all my queries. I love the finished result from using Lilac Pink on the walls and Spanish White on the ceiling. Would recommend in a heartbeat.
I have just finished painting my bathroom in Azurite and had to tell you, although you obviously already know … the best emulsion I have ever used, stunning results and the coverage is amazing, only needed one coat!

We have created this calculator to help you estimate the amount of paint you will need for your project. Please note that this is only an estimate, based on normal surfaces with two coats of paint.

If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!
