Choosing colours for a conservatory

Bright conservatories with skylights can be awkward spaces to paint in colour. The trick is to find a way to absorb the light without dulling it down or overpowering it with a vivid colour or even illuminating it with something too white. Read more for all the colour tips..

Creating a calm sitting room haven

The sitting room is the best room in the house to relax in. The kitchen may be the bustling heart of the home, but the sitting room is the room to escape to and unwind in, to find some calm and peace. It’s also a great room to entertain friends in. The colour you choose to decorate it in is key to the atmosphere and mood.

How much paint do I need?

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!

What are you painting?

Estimated
Painted Wall/Ceiling Area

Our natural matt emulsion is perfect for interior walls and ceilings.

0 litres

0 m2

This estimate is based on two coats of paint and the dimensions of your room, minus the space taken by average doors and windows.

For this area, we suggest would be adequate.

Estimated
Woodwork Area

Our water based eggshell or gloss is ideal for woodwork or metalwork.

0 litres

0 m2

This estimate is based on two coats of paint and the skirting and the doors/windows you told us about. 1 litre should cover 2-3 doors or 20m of skirting.

For this area, we suggest would be adequate.
