DULUX Snowy Mountain Half
9 years ago
Hi,
I am just about to start the project of repainting inside my contemporary home.
Going from Hog bristle Qtr to ... I think - Snowy Mountain Half low sheen on all walls and Snowy Mountain Qtr semi gloss on doors / architraves.
Does anyone have any photos they can share in this colour? Suggestions? Advice?
I'm at the point of continuing to second guess myself.
Attached is a photo of the living room prior to me purchasing the home (so furniture not mine).
Greatly Appreciated!!

Colour suggestions
Comments (12)Thanks for your comments everyone! I have been convinced to keep the blue door :) Luckily I was able to return the rug to Ikea, this one below was the best I could find there in terms of colour (I'm trying to keep things fairly neutral). The size is perhaps a bit small, but it will do in the meantime (it was only $10) and I will keep my eye out for other options. I have hooks on the wall for coats etc near the window, so I don't want to put anything too big there but maybe a medium size plant would work?...See MoreSnowy Mountains Half or Lexicon Half with Calacatta Nuvo
Comments (1)Both of those whites are cool whites with subtle blue/grey undertones. I don't have a sample of Caeserstone Clacatta on hand, but some of the images online show that this has a hint of warmth in it, with a subtle cream/yellow undertone. http://www.caesarstone.com.au/colour/5131-calacatta-nuvo If this is this is the case, and these images are accurate, I would be cautious about combining your Caeserstone selection with either of your paint colours. But the best way to judge is seeing samples together in a similar light. Digital internet images are notoriously unreliable for subtle colour accuracy. Even if you chose the same colour for walls, trim and cabinetwork there will be subtle differences due to the finishes and how the paint is applied. Walls are generally painted with a roller and have a flatter finish than skirtings and architraves which have a bit more gloss, and are painted with a paintbrush. Cabinetwork is often satin or gloss, and applied with a spray gun. This means that there will be subtle variations between these elements, even if the colour is the same, your eye may well perceive differences. Don't plan on a perfect match between everything.

Comments (0)Just wondering any thoughts on paint colour for the kitchen cupboard doors which will be in semi gloss polyurethane. We have chosen Smartstone Amara and have narrowed a couple of colours which are Dulux Snowy Mountains Half and White Exchange Half? Any comments would be appreciated....See MoreKitchen Splashback HELP
Comments (8)Hi Fiona, you may not be able to use the Quantum Quartz bench top material because of your gas cook top but you can use either a natural Marble slab, Sintesered stone or Marble tiles to tie your design together. Below are kitchen examples that have used; a Marble slab splashback (top), Marble Subway tile and a Marble tiles laid in a herringbone pattern. Hope these give you an idea of their appearance when used with your style of kitchen. Alternatively you could also go down the track of using Glass Splashbacks with a printed marble image (see Bottom Image). Hope this helps, Malcolm....See More

- 9 years agoI always use Dulux Whisper white. Goes with everything.
My only advice to you is to get a sample pots and paint large pieces of cardboard so you can see them in different lights and times.
All different houses, all Whisper white.
