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 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.
