Limewash, we will only do it if you don't want to do it yourself
Limewash is a type of paint made from slaked lime (or chalk) that is often used on porous surfaces like brick, plaster, and stone. It's known for its matte, textured finish, and ability to create a soft, weathered look reminiscent of Mediterranean buildings. Limewash is also naturally resistant to bacteria and mold, making it a good choice for areas prone to moisture. Now that that's out of the way

Cool Crip White
White, But Make It Limewash
White limewash walls might sound simple, but oh, they’ve got layers—literally and figuratively. These shades come in both cool and warm tones, so you can pick your white with personality.
Cool Whites:
These have a dash of blue or grey mixed in, giving them that crisp, clean, “I meditate and drink green juice” kind of vibe. Perfect for light-filled rooms, they work especially well if you're going for that minimalist, Scandi-chic aesthetic—where everything looks effortless and suspiciously well-organized.
Warm Whites:
More into the cosy, curled-up-with-a-book feel? Warm whites are your jam. With undertones of red, yellow, or brown, they add a soft, earthy glow to any space. It’s like giving your walls a hug—without the awkward eye contact.
Soft Grey
Gorgeous in Grey
Forget what you’ve heard—grey limewash walls are not just a gloomy backdrop from a 90s detective show. In fact, they’re anything but drab. Thanks to the soft, cloud-like texture of lime paint, grey becomes a moody masterpiece that adds depth and drama without stealing the spotlight.
Think of it as the ultimate team player: it brings the atmosphere while letting your bolder decor choices—like that burgundy bedspread or statement purple armchair—strut their stuff. It’s the wall equivalent of wearing a great suit and knowing when to let the accessories shine.
