New Haymes Paint collection celebrates colourful neutrals

By Amy Collins-Walker •

FacebookPinEmailTweet

Like us, when it comes to paint, you’re probably tired of seeing the usual suspects – variants of grey and white. But if we’re honest, these ‘safe’ colours can be rather uninteresting and even more so when you consider that the colour wheel offers so many other choices. We get it though, neutrals allow you to mix things up in a way that stronger colours often don’t which is where the latest Haymes Paint release comes in.

Wall painted in ‘Siesta,’ floor painted in ‘Shell Pink’ and sofa upholstered in the fabric equivalent of the Haymes Paint ‘Gem’

Titled ‘Blended Neutrals’ (Volume 9 in their colour library series), the collection is comprised of peachy, fleshy tones combined with warm blues that prove that neutrals don’t have to be bland. “I’ve developed this palette of nine neutrals to inspire, influence and engage consumers to use more colour in their homes. It’s a palette that contains hints of pink, peach and blue, which contrast well with the greys, injecting life and soul to interior spaces,” says Haymes Paint colour and concept manager Wendy Rennie who explains that the range was inspired by a recent trip to Milan.

Challenging the accepted definition of what constitutes a neutral, the washed-out tones are super versatile. “This more playful and relaxed approach to neutrals provides an opportunity for people to shift their approach from always using greys and whites to seeing how colour can be translated into making spaces warm, balanced and liveable,” says Wendy.

“What I love about this palette is that it creates a wonderful conversation around the definition of neutrals and how we can use them in our homes to create playful, unique and relaxed spaces,” says Wendy.

The hero colour of the palette, Siesta, is a soft peachy tone that perfectly illustrates the way in which subtle colour is as utterly versatile as a traditional neutral. “Siesta can be used to create a relaxed and comfortable vibe in a bedroom, open plan living space or even a bathroom,” says Wendy. We’re sold!

Think you can't have a gorgeous plush white sofa l Think you can't have a gorgeous plush white sofa like these for practical reasons?

WRONG!

These stylish and super comfortable options from @jameslanedesign all have removable slipcovers, some which attach with Velcro for extra ease of taking them on and off. And you can even choose a polyester, viscose and linen blend or 100% linen. And chuck them in the wash at home! There's even an ivory boucle version with fully removable and dry cleanable covers!

And in good news for those in apartments, smaller homes or with tight entries or stairs, two of these are modular which makes moving them is a breeze.

So you CAN have it all! Hoorah!

Do you have a white sofa? Would you get one with removable and washable covers? 

Let's face it, a white sofa is a classic!

Colour hug, anyone?! A collaboration with design Colour hug, anyone?!

A collaboration with design studio Nexus Designs, this palette from the new @haymespaint colour forecast is perfect for those looking to create a tranquil environment and has a particular focus on darker shades.

“Inspired by the qualities of an intimate reading room, confident and expressive colours such as Florida Everglade have a muted depth that embody this. Balanced and subtle, it’s also invigorating and luscious. Through all over application, paired with contemporary furniture and styling, this colour and the broader palette plays with tactility, translucency, reflection, and form,” says Myra Murtagh of Nexus. 

See the rest of the colour forecast, include collabs with @adairs and TikTok favourites @joshandmattdesign on the blog homepage now, via link in bio.

Featuring in a Block "disaster" room nevertheless Featuring in a Block "disaster" room nevertheless paid off for artist @adoni.art 

Slammed for being too small, @kyleandleslie's living room was otherwise praised by the judges for being beautifully styled.

"In terms of using it as a marketing platform it’s been amazing," he said. "Even for people who don’t follow the show it’s validation that they are following an artist that’s levelling up. The exposure has translated to sales, traffic and attention and it’s everything I wanted because I’m about to launch a new collection.”

Real reno: How's this for a luxe bathroom?! Natas Real reno: How's this for a luxe bathroom?!

Natasha from QLD recently finished a major reno of her Queenslander and this is her favourite room of all. We can see why!

She used @beaumont.tiles  Lux Calcutta slabs in gloss the wall and matt for the floor.

 "We have infused a Hamptons style whilst still remaining true to the traditions of old Queenslanders," she said. "Our bathroom is north west facing and captures such great morning light. We wrapped the cabinetry all the way along the vanity for ease of access for the bath, towels and accessories. We tiled all the way to the ceiling to create a more luxurious space. It's my favourite room in the house!"
