The white you choose and how you use it sets the character and mood of your space: Dramatic, vibrant, Tranquil, serene, spiritual, Sophisticated, chic, Crisp, fresh clean, Luxurious, glamorous. Let the color white stimulate you imagination.
Where to use white
From drawing rooms to beach houses, formal or relaxed, white is appropriate in any interior, modern, traditional or historic. It’s timeless, never tiresome and extraordinarily versatile.
How to use white
Try using several tinted white tones in different textures. This design combination will create a pleasing sense of variety, and invite the eye to move around the space. Use white to set off the other colors in your room. Pale and subtle tones in particular gain from the contrast with white.
How to choose white
Select a white with a tint of the other colors in your room. A warm white with a whisper of yellow in it will harmonize with warm colors; a cool, slightly blue white combines well with cooler hues. No wonder Hunter Douglas™ offers such a wide range of white choices across its many product lines. On of them is sure to perfectly express the personality of your home.
