Create your calm with Berger

There’s a lot going on in the world today and sometimes you just need to close the door and find your own calm; here’s how you can bring calm to the storm with Berger.

Berger, a Crown paints company, manufacturers quality paint to a high standard. Berger paints offers a cost effective option, ideal for your next home decorating project. At Paint Direct, we stock a range of finishes with many colour options to choose from. Read on to find out how you can bring the beauty of Berger into your home.

Getting neutral

Opting for a neutral decorating scheme can benefit your home in many ways. It can turn your walls into a near blank canvas that gives you the creative freedom to easily experiment with accessories in bolder, more vivid colors.

Similarly, you can use brighter neutral colours that can give your room a more open, clean, and breezy feel.

In addition to the brighter shades, you could go for muted or darker neutrals that can give a space a cosier yet sleek appearance. Plus, if you want to put your house on the market, neutrals are appealing because they're calming and fresh, and they let buyers see the potential of a room in an unbiased way.

What neutral colours do Berger offer?

With regards to paint and interior design, neutral paints are those with undertones, yet without hues. The most popular neutrals in the Berger can be split into three distinct categories, which lend themselves to specific rooms and vibes.

Berger Yellow-based Neutrals

Yellow-based neutrals

This selection of yellow based neutrals are perfect for rooms that receive lots of sunlight, for example, a room with a beautiful, big bay window, conservatories or garden rooms - as they look best when reflecting light because of their sunny, yellow undertones.

As they have a sunny yellow undertone, they will work nicely with other tones that have a warmth or boldness to them, leaving an incredible amount of opportunities, such as a red or even a bright green.

Berger’s most popular yellow based neutrals are: Chalk Hill, Frosted Cream and Sugar Spoon, which would absolutely fantastic in your home.

warm-neutrals

Warm neutrals

Berger’s warm neutrals work well together, creating an ageless and understated colour palette. The trend of warm neutral tones isn’t new - they were originally used in the 17th century to replicate the colour of the plaster, stone or wood that was being painted. It’s now rising again in popularity due to the  the red base of the warm neutrals has come back into favour with the rising demand of taupe tones.

Warm neutrals with a brown base are excellent in helping to make your home feel peaceful,and grounded. Brown-based neutrals lend themselves well to other neutrals, such as a creamy white or deep terracotta because they are such versatile colours.

Berger’s Mocha Mix, Smudge Shadow, and Double Date are the ultimate warm neutrals for living and dining rooms due to the subtle warmth they can add to a room.
