Our French grey is so popular that we decided to refine it to a lighter, more urban-friendly tone which we, naturally enough, call Paris Grey – a term our greatest 18th century architect (in my opinion) Sir William Chambers used. In my mind’s eye it is actually the colour of the houses on the elegant boulevards of the world’s chicest city. Luckily our Natural Paint offers tonal harmony in ultramodern interiors as in period properties.
We now offer Paris Grey in three lighter shades. 60%, 40% and 20% lighter shades, to cover the use of this beautiful colour throughout the home.
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

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!
