Taking stats from various DIY stores I have compiled a small list of ten of the nation’s favourite colours. While the classic colours are right up there in this list there is still a few choice of colours that might surprise people…
Pale Blue
10 – Pale Blue
Info Source: Blue paired with bright white makes us think of fine china, elegant and timeless, creating a cool and soothing mood in this hallway.
Pale Cream
9 – Pale Cream
Info Source: A lot of people choose this because it often does not require an undercoat (except where a strong colour change is required) and it often set against a single wall of stronger colour.
Peach
8 – Peach
Info Source: The colour peach represents immortality in Chinese civilization because the peach tree of immortality, long thought to be on a mountainside somewhere in the Tian Shan mountains in western China, is a key concept in the mythology of the Taoist religion.
Warm Pink
7 – Warm Pink
Info Source: Often relegated to a nursery or dismissed as being too overtly feminine for an often-used space (which of course begs the question: Is pale blue too boyish? Certainly not), pink walls are again having their moment.
