I was impressed with the coverage and the way that the Ammonite seems to change in differing light, sometimes it’s a blue tone, sometimes more pink/green and grey.Īnother way I’ve tried to enhance light and create a perception of a lighter room is by having see-through furniture, glass desk/tables and Perspex chairs. This above wall was the darkest colour to start with and it required two coats of undercoat, everywhere else just had one. Here’s a “before, during and after” of our clock wall: A perfect contrast to the slightly darker Cornforth White. The colour she suggested (and I’d had my eye on) was Ammonite – from the Farrow and Ball website – “a colour of fossils found on the Dorset coast. My challenge therefore for Joa was to suggest a colour that would not only enhance the light there was but also had a degree of depth that would not be overpowered by artificial light. We also have an issue with a distinct lack of natural light, the back garden is South-facing and fantastic in the Summer but the front of the house doesn’t receive a great deal of natural light or warmth. Any paint chosen would need to complement and reflect this. It’s very much a case of “love me, love my colour”. I am a bit of a purple fiend, in all its variations and shades. A room which is used most in the house, it’s a place to relax, to eat and to work. I have chosen a specific couple of walls to feature here as these are the least “busiest”, as the room painted was our lounge/dining room. This second post will show our results and our feedback on the paint we received. In my first post on our review of Farrow and Ball paint, I answered some specific questions posed by Mumsnet.
