The legendary source of Indigo gave it its name – literally ‘Indian’. The leaves of trees from the Indigofera family, prevalent there, could be fermented to produce a beautiful dye as well as a pigment. Nowadays we use mineral pigments for their superior light fastness but this evocative colour properly earns its presence in a well judged colour range. Traditionally oil paints were used to decorate with deep colours as they could ‘manage’ the pigment loading. Today our taste for a matt finish means we embrace the powdery rather than shiny look you get from rendering these colours in emulsion and this colour takes on a wonderful velvety feel. A deep, rich blue which looks wonderful in a study. bathroom or a statement front door. Our natural recipes create these beautiful finishes which are plant-based and kind to nature.

I was just walking around my house thinking how fortunate I was to find your paint! It’s nine months since I began my renovation project and every day I’m so glad I chose these lovely colours! I have some regrets about other aspects of my project but not this
Thank you for your wonderful paint. I can’t tell you how thrilled I am. Your Rose Tinted White is the most beguiling of colours – in fact I’d say it’s more of a mood than a colour! It’s warm soft,feminine without being sugary and the paint has a wonderful earthy, breathing quality which is magical.
I love brick! I love the different tones that show at different times of the day; sometimes more orange, sometimes more pink. A beautiful, warm, modern classic.
NO picture surfer here! I read every word of your book. Truly a standout among other Brit design books (a tough field). Your personality, judgement and creativity really come through. Thanks.
Our bathroom is painted in one of your greens. The colour of Barbar’s coat. Everyone gasps with joy when they walk in.
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.
Please check our practical painting advice - if you are painting onto a very absorbent surface, you may need more paint, and for best results, you may need to prime your surfaces.
If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!
