1960s Paint

These mid-20th century paint colours are a reaction against the austerity of the period following WWII. Modern methods of pigmentation led to a revolution in the colours used for interiors. Colours such as Carmine, Trumpet and Brighton led the way, alongside the iconic Hicks' Blue from David Hicks, one of the most important designers of the 60s and 70s. Use these colours and muted related whites to create a contemporary mid-twentieth century scheme.
