'We planned a vibrant color scheme from the start,' Cole explains. 'I wanted an interesting neutral backdrop.'

Luxury eco-friendly paint range pro decorators say is 'excellent'
This new range could be perfect for shoppers looking to spruce up their homes for summer When it comes to giving the home a new lease of life, a lick of paint can work wonders. Whether it's painting the kitchen cupboards, adding a splash of colour to skirting boards, or creating a feature wall in the living room, the right paint can really bring a space to life. Finding the right paint shades for the space can be a hassle - there are so many options out there, and it can feel daunting to commit based on a single swatch. However, a new line of paints from luxury eco-friendly brand COAT Paints, in collaboration with TV personality and wellness advocate Millie Mackintosh, could be the ticket. The range includes a selection of shades for all corners of the home, from bedrooms to bathrooms, kitchens to hallways. Speaking of the range she's worked on, the former Made in Chelsea star, 35, says: "Creating a mindful home environment has been essential to me, especially as I've navigated motherhood and my personal wellness journey. "Every colour in this collection is a reflection of that - whether it's the calming tones of 'Balance' or the warm embrace of 'Gratitude.' I wanted this palette to encourage people to slow down, reflect, and create spaces that feel comforting and rejuvenating." The COAT x Millie Mackintosh range includes six colours. There's Presence, a Blush Plaster Pink; Poise, a Pale Blush Pink; Centred, an Earthy Pale Beige; Renew, a Teal Blue; Manifest, a Soft Fresh Green; and Nourish, a soothing, muted sage green. All of the shades come in six finishes, too - Flat Matt, Soft Sheen, Interior Eggshell, Exterior Eggshell, Claypaint, and Floor Paint - so there's a formula for every surface. Depending on how much paint is needed, the collection is available at a range of price points: from £30 for 1L, £56 for 2.5L, or £96 for 5L. Plus, it's easy to try before you buy, with peel-and-stick samples available in each shade which are fully recyclable and 100% accurate to the real paint colour. If this range doesn't quite resonate with shoppers, they could try Farrow & Ball's new spring range, which includes shades like deep red, mustard yellow, olive green and duck-egg blue, with prices hovering around £33 for 750ml to £128 for 5L. Alternatively, House of Hackney has a wide range of made-to-order, water based, low VOC, low odour paints throughout the colour spectrum, with prices around £59 for 2.5L or £100 for 5L. The paints from COAT - a B Corp Certified company - which are water-based, low V.O.C, premium paints formulated to be amongst the highest-quality on the market, have proven to be a favourite among shoppers. The range currently has perfect reviews. One shopper said: "Just had our hallway and landing painted in Coat paint whilst away and all I can say is wow! Decorator not used Coat before but commented on excellent application. We have used Coat before ourselves and found it to be extremely easy to use and also the colours are amazing. Customer service is also second to none. We needed paint quickly and they upgraded to next day delivery." Another said: "Beautiful soft hues, with colours you can't find anywhere else. I really enjoyed transforming my rooms with this paint, it has great coverage and is a real joy to use." Someone who tried the Poise shade said: "I love this colour! I really wanted a pink bedroom but not too little girly feel. Poise was the perfect shade for that, it's so soft and subtle but at the same, so girly and a great pink. Did 2 layers and it's so lush!" A shopper who used the Renew shade noted: "The colour is a little different from what it looks like on the website - in my living room anyway - a bit more blue and less teal. It matches the sample sticker perfectly though, so I got what I was expecting." One person did have an issue with delivery: "Lovely paint colours, like the eco credentials. Good coverage and nice finish. Some issues with couriers lately, but customer service always very helpful and solve problems quickly." Another said they had concerns which turned out to be unfounded: "I was unsure how pink this would be, but it's just perfect," they said of Poise.

This Dramatic Hue Is the Color of Summer, According to a Survey
Have you been opting for your phone's Do Not Disturb setting more often lately? If so, you're not alone. According to Pinterest's 2025 Summer Report, people are itching for a 'Digital Detox Summer,' meaning it's time to go touch grass, y'all. And while bringing grass inside isn't the most straightforward task, Pinterest users are still hoping to add more green to their lives, specifically regularly searching for the color 'Dill Green.' Pinterest predicted the color dill green would be huge for summer back in January when the site published its 2025 Pinterest Palette report. Described as 'pickled perfection in a color,' dill green has been on the rise thanks to users' interests in pickling and pickle decor, the earthy aesthetic of the Terra Futura trend (Pinterest predicted in 2024 that Boomers and Gen Xers will focus more on sustainability), and the overall reaching back into the early 2000s for inspiration (that '70s-inspired dill hue was big in the aughts). With users searching for book clubs, garden parties, summer crafting, and other tech-free outdoor activities, dill green is fully on the map and making its way into home aesthetics. The shade can be a fun pop of color in a light and airy space, like this accent wall in the sunny Chicago rental seen above, which is painted with Backdrop's Lawn Party. Or, when paired with other darker tones, it could shift moody like this small dill green nook in a glam London remodel. Farrow & Ball's Green Smoke (No. 47) adds so much drama to the other deep blue color in the room. Dill olive pairs perfectly with aesthetics ranging from farmhouse and cottagecore to mid-century modern and even dark academia. It all depends on how you style it. Pinterest users are also searching for the 'Martha Stewart aesthetic' right now, which is all about embracing 'garden-to-table cooking, flower gardens, and fresh summer recipes, channeling the iconic tastemaker's lifestyle,' as the Pinterest Summer Report reads. And nothing says fresh quite like the herby color of dill! If you're searching for ways to bring the feeling of being in nature into your home this summer, give dill green a try. It's fresh and earthy, inspiring you to put the phone down and reconnect with Mother Earth, making it easy to do so while the weather allows.

Wall covering adds playful touch to bathroom in classic antique home
Advertisement 2 In the shower, marble tiles in a classic subway pattern play off the striped wallpaper. 'The gray grout pops without feeling harsh and won't yellow like white grout,' Grant points out. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up 3 The designer was charmed by the existing alcove shower, but realized its tiny opening felt constricting. 'We went wider and higher, then trimmed it to mimic other doorways in the home,' she says. She also added wainscoting and painted all the wood in Benjamin Moore's Northern Air. 4 Farrow & Ball's Closet Stripe wallpaper hangs horizontally for a more modern, lighthearted presentation. The horizontal orientation helps expand the small-but-tall space, too. 5 The antique, gilded-wood mirror is appropriate for the 180-plus-year-old home without feeling fussy, while Ro Sham Beaux-brand globe sconces are an updated take on an ageless style. The owner's gold-framed vintage painting was the finishing touch. Advertisement 6 A vintage-inspired washstand from RH keeps the room airy; the brass finish infuses warmth. 'The prior chrome hardware made the space feel cold and sterile,' Grant says. Marni Elyse Katz is a contributing editor to the Globe Magazine. Follow her on Instagram
