    I am looking for a colour to paint all the walls downstairs in my house. I want a modern contemporary look. I have a dark brown sofa (New Elite from Cost Plus Sofas), cream rugs and light wooden floors. Maybe a cream or soft hessian? I would really like to get a cream or white mantle for around the fire . . . Doesnt have to be dulux, but I know most of their colours

    yes I like the idea of a mushroom colour but its very hard to pick such a colour.I get lots of testers and put them up on a small area but they look completely different on a large area

    I like tenderfoot from Colortrend it's a very warm pale cappucino colour, it definitely is warmer than a lot of those colours. you can order A4 swatches on their website, less messy and cheaper than tester pots. Their colour cards are actually paint samples. Irish made too.

    calico, or modernity from colourtrend are about as neutral as you can get...seems like thats what you are going for,maybe linen or almond white
    all down to personal choice

    bring a few pics to the shop when your buying the paint

    p.s. modern contemporary... laughed so hard it made a small bit of pee come out
