The project in detail
A living room that feels genuinely fresh and well-finished makes a real difference to how a home feels. Getting there requires a systematic approach: surfaces properly assessed and prepared, any imperfections filled and sanded back, areas of concern primed, and the room fully protected before a brush or roller goes near the walls. The ceiling was finished in Dulux Trade White Emulsion, giving a clean, bright overhead. Walls were decorated in Dulux Trade Diamond Matt Emulsion, tinted to the colour chosen by the customer. All woodwork, including skirting boards, architraves, and door frames, was finished in Benjamin Moore Scruff-x Satin tinted to Chantilly Lace, providing a durable, well-resolved finish throughout. Everything was decorated in sequence, with careful cutting-in at every junction to produce sharp, clean lines. The finished result is a room that looks and feels properly done, not just painted over.
