In his first book, The Colourful Past, architectural historian and natural paint pioneer Edward Bulmer invites readers on an in-depth tour of his work in some of Britain’s finest homes – including Althorp, Goodwood, Pitshill House, Broughton Hall, and his own Queen Anne manor house, Court of Noke.
Edward Bulmer represents a new generation of designers bringing fresh life to historic homes. His work blends a deep respect for classical British country house traditions with an understanding of how modern families live today. With a discerning eye for the timeless and well-worn, he pairs natural textures with rich, contemporary colour palettes – a philosophy reflected in his all-natural, toxin-free paints, which suit both traditional and eclectic interiors.
The Colourful Past was published by Rizzoli, with a foreword by The Duchess of Richmond and photography by Paul Whitbread.

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!
