Honey
Honey is rich and golden — a high-end paint shade with the kind of warmth that makes evenings feel right and clear amber undertones. Sits naturally next to clay tile, untreated leather and warm earthy textiles. We see Honey specified most often for open-plan reception areas and south-facing kitchens that handle warmer light. Soft enough to be a backdrop, defined enough to be a choice. It reads 1970s revival in spirit without locking the room into a single period.

Rich and golden reads its best where the light is even and natural. Below are the rooms we've installed this shade in most often.

Questions clients ask about this shade
Does Honey hold up in north-facing rooms?+
Yes — Honey carries enough warm pigment that it doesn't go flat or grey in cool daylight. The amber undertone is what stops it bleaching out.
What sheen options come in Honey?+
Honey is tinted into your choice of dead-matt, soft eggshell or low-sheen satin. For rooms with high handling — hallways, kitchens — we'd usually recommend eggshell.
What does Honey pair with from your range?+
We most often pair Honey with the three closest shades in its family — see the pairings panel below. Beyond that, pairs with reclaimed bricks, walnut, copper, and undyed linen.
