Paint recommendation for bright room

    I have an east facing room with large windows and I would like to paint it in a shade that keeps it bright. Does anyone have recommendations? I already have rooms painted blue, green and purple so ideally I'd like this one to be from a different colour family (that's not a deal-breaker though). Was thinking yellow but I've heard some yellow painting horror stories. If I did go with yellow I'd want it to be a non-orangey shade.

    Hoping for actual brand/shade recommendations based on experience, not "have you thought about pink" type replies (I've thought about everything ;)). TIA.

    I recommend getting a tester of a shade called "Lace" by Dulux. It's very bright and doesn't look like a shade of white.

    I recommend, beach house by crown, which is a yellow - not orangey or if you wanted something stronger in the yellow range, sunrise by crown i think as well. I have beach house in my utility and sunrise in my conservatory and get compliments on both. best thing to do is get a few testers and see if the colour suits your room. I tested sunrise in my utility and it was terrible there but works perfectly in my conservatory.
    at the end of the day its only paint if you dont like what you put there you can always paint over it again.
