HARMONIC FLOW

“Colour flow is the concept of using colour to connect adjacent spaces in your home, to give a harmonious feel throughout,” says Helen Shaw, director of paint specialists Benjamin Moore UK.

“The use of colourflow is made easier by selecting a core white for ceilings, woodwork and doors, especially with open-plan spaces with no obvious place to change from one colour to another.

“Make sure that the white you choose works with the colours you’ve chosen for all the spaces. Remember, reds and yellows harmonise with warmer whites, while greens, greys and blues synchronise better with cooler white paint shade selections”
