What Colour should a Workshop be Painted?

I know, you’ve been waiting with bated breath to know the answer to this question (not :) but ever since I walked into this furniture makers workshop and saw the back wall painted this colour, I wanted to show it to you because it’s so great.

Colour me Happy Blog 1214 BM 802 or CC-846

A basically unfinished room with lots of yellow toned wood everywhere really makes this sky blue colour pop. So in case you have always wondered what colour your windowless basement or garage should be, this is one option. I snapped this photo at the Vancouver Culture Crawl in November and just found it in my camera. This is a place where an accent wall like this really works!


This is just one example of a great blue but there are many others, like 2064-50 or 2058-50. The colour of the sky is a great colour for a windowless playroom in a basement as well!  No need to keep it light if you don’t have windows because as you know by now, A Light Colour will never come to Life in a Dark Room.

If you would like your home to fill you with happiness every time you walk in, contact me for on-line or in-person consultations.
