In 1900 Arthur Sanderson introduced a small

collection of paints to complement his wallpaper

and fabric collections. Now, more than a century

later, we have 154 colours in a selection of

finishes that can be used throughout your home.

From traditional to contemporary interiors, this

timeless palette has been designed for homes

where style matters.

Our craft is important to us, so we tint all of our

paints in-house, which are made to order in the

same facility as we manufacture our wallpapers,

here in the UK. Seamlessly blending enduring

heritage with modern day family life, this easy

to use palette effortlessly complements our

signature wallpaper and fabric designs.

There’s nothing quite like a family day on the beach

to rejuvenate our senses and make memories to treasure.

Sun, sand and sea air feed the soul.

A chance to breath in the sea air and soak up the ever-changing

vista. The British coastline provided the inspiration behind our

Embleton Bay collection and its namesake paint colour.

It has always been a family favourite and a bit of a hidden gem with silver sands and turquoise

water. It’s a very magical place. Charlotte, Head of Creative

Although the sea can be hard to get to it’s vast and has beautiful sand dunes to explore. The

walk through the forest to reach the beach is always an extra treat. Andy, Photographer

We have friends close to the beach and the sand is perfect and wonderful for children. The sun

always seems to shine for us as well which is always a bonus. Becci, Embleton Bay Designer

Woodlands are a great source of inspiration. Whether you choose to decorate

tree of life in our Woodland Chorus wallpaper, the end result is an interior

which resonates with nature to be enjoyed every day.

Both our eggshell finishes are ideally suited to painting furniture. The botanical

hue of woodland yellow on a favoured chair brings the sunshine in, whilst

briarwood and silver fern are perfect base colours for a dining table.

John Keats described Autumn as the ‘Season of

mists and mellow fruitfulness.’

A season to celebrate the harvest and enjoy the

turning leaves in their glorious ambers, reds

and yellows. Time for cosy evenings at home as

temperatures fall and the anticipation of winter

festivities begins.

We were thrilled when Greenery was chosen as Pantone’s colour of the year in 2017 and we’ve

seen this colour group grow in popularity ever since. Nature’s neutral, greens come in such a

broad spectrum of hues, ranging from fresh zesty botanics to rich deep teals.

Green has always symbolised new beginning and works well in many applications, you can

decorate alongside other green shades or frame the colour with one of our neutrals. Green

fulfils our craving to be better connected with the natural world.

Colour psychologists often describe green as an optimistic colour associated with growth,

harmony, safety and the environment. This association transcends cultures, in Japan green is

associated with eternal life and in the western world with growth and progress. So, it’s true

greens are good for you.

Never out of fashion, neutral palettes can be relied on to create

timeless, elegant and sophisticated interiors. They work as

excellent backdrops or as a soothing balance to stronger colours.

We’ve curated four neutral palettes, from warm undertones to cool

structured greys, each work on their own or matched with colour.

The best way to visualise how your room will look is to try

the colour on your own wall. Sample pots provide an ideal way to see how

your colour sits with any fabrics or wallpapers you plan to use, as well as

seeing how it subtly adapts to the changing light throughout the day. A useful

tip is to paint board and move it around your room, you can even take it with

you when selecting fabrics and other accessories.
