The project in detail
Another new build given a serious personality upgrade! Staircase areas in new builds tend to arrive in generic brilliant white from top to bottom, and while there's nothing wrong with that, it can feel a little flat. For this Faringdon home, we introduced a sophisticated sage green to the staircase walls, a warm, earthy tone that sits beautifully against the white woodwork and balustrades and gives the whole space a calm, considered feel. The walls are finished in Benjamin Moore, tinted to the customer's chosen sage green. The ceiling is finished in Dulux Trade White Emulsion. The woodwork, including the banister, spindles, skirting and architraves, is finished in crisp white, providing a clean contrast that makes the colour really sing. A lovely example of how a single thoughtful colour choice in the right space can transform the feel of an entire home.
