Welcome to the Berger Paint and Colour Guide.

The guide is designed to help you find the

inspiration to take those first redecorating

steps, to explore colour and to find your

perfect scheme.

Throughout this guide we suggest contemporary

and popular colours, together with scheming

ideas, to get you on your way.

To best understand how these colours will

work in your home we encourage you to

test the colours on each of your walls with

one of our Berger Premium sample pots.

We invite you to take as many sample

colour chips from the Berger Colour Wall

as you like so that you can experience the

colours you love, in the place that you love

the most – your home.

Sample PotsThe best way to ensure that you achieve exactly the colour you want in your home is to pick up a sample pot and actually apply the paint to your walls. Colours can change with different surface textures and lighting environments. Even the furniture you have in your home can have an effect on the way the paint appears on your walls. Berger Premium Sample Pots can be tinted to most colours. So be sure of your choice and pick up a sample pot before you begin.

GETTING STARTEDTo achieve a brilliant end result, we’ll help you do your ‘home work’ first.

As well as saving you time and money, researching, sampling and testing are vital to working out what preparations, colours and combinations will work best for your home.

SOOTHING BLUES

Deep blue shades complement almost any surface or existing colour. For example, metallic fixtures pick up and reflect darker shades of blue, making them an ideal option for contemporary kitchens and bathrooms. While outdoors, a dark blue feature wall in a courtyard or pool area can make a bold statement.

Lighter shades of blue add a sense of space to a room. Working with natural surfaces of sandstone and parchment, lighter shades can also create a breezy summer feel.

STONE ESSENCE

Inside, dark grey walls create the perfect backdrop for a feature painting or a mirror. While in kitchens and bathrooms, greys provide the perfect partner to marble, granite and tiled surfaces.

A practical choice for exteriors, frame your doors and windows in white against subtle grey to produce eye-catching highlights.

NATURAL HAVENFresh shades of green can help fuse the space between your indoor and outdoor environments. Working with dark wood antiques and accessories, deep greens can help recreate heritage charm. While green skirting boards and cupboards add country colour to an otherwise neutral kitchen. Or for a more contemporary effect, offset vibrant green against a palette of soothing neutral shades, from brown through to grey.
