We found the best white paint colours
A quick look at our popular four white paint colours. Why we only have four and why you need to stop painting your walls white… ‘straight from the can’ white that is. Let's see how easy it can be o pick a white paint for your space!
The Tint White Paint Range
Whites typically come in four variations: cool, neutral, warm and off-white. It’s pretty simple when you break it down like that. And we think that’s the way it should be: simple. So we’ve narrowed down 100s of whites to just four perfect shades, each one with a unigue undertone that you might need for your space. Here’s a breakdown of the colours:
Paper Plane – A Cool White
Paper Plane is our cool white. It gives your room a fresh, modern feel by neutralizing warm, bright light. Perfect for creating a clean, crisp look.
So Fresh and So Clean – A Neutral White
A bright white with a tiny touch of warmth, So Fresh and So Clean strikes the perfect balance. It's a versatile, all-rounder choice that fits in almost any space.
Old School – A Warm White
Old School is a warm white designed to make spaces feel cozy and inviting. It adds a soft, comforting tone to any room, especially in colder or less sunny spaces.
C.R.E.A.M. – An Off-White
C.R.E.A.M. is our off-white, with a warm undertone that brings depth and comfort to your room. Ideal for creating a relaxed, elegant atmosphere.
Quick Tips for Choosing the Right White
- Consider the direction of light: Northern light is warmer, so a cool white like Paper Plane works best. Southern light is cooler, making a warm white like Old School a great choice.
- Test whites together: Compare your chosen white with existing white surfaces to avoid clashing.
- Think about your room’s colours: Match whites with your furniture’s undertones — warm whites work well with warm-toned decor, and cool whites with cooler hues.
- Location matters: Your local climate can guide your choice. Sunny areas benefit from cool whites, while colder areas can benefit from warm whites.
- Trim choices: Stick with a lighter white for trims, or pair different whites for a bit of contrast. Just be sure the undertones match.
