Pure White N1

Pure White N1 is the brightest seamless white we tint — a microcement shade with sitting cleanly between warm and cool and clear warm-white undertones. It plays well with oak, brass, linen, brushed nickel and unpolished plaster. Most Pure White N1 installs end up on powder rooms or showroom walls and product backdrops. Almost white, but not white. The lineage is gallery minimal, but the way it sits on a wall is unmistakably current.

FAQs about Pure White N1

Questions clients ask about this shade

Does Pure White N1 hold up in north-facing rooms?+

Yes — Pure White N1 carries enough tonal weight that it doesn't go flat or grey in cool daylight. The warm-white undertone is what stops it bleaching out.

Is Pure White N1 suitable for a shower or wet-room?+

Pure White N1 can be specified for wet-rooms with our standard microcement wet-zone build: primer, two base coats with reinforcing mesh, two finishing coats, then a tanking membrane and two coats of polyurethane sealer. The colour itself doesn't change suitability — finish and sealer do.

What does Pure White N1 pair with from your range?+

We most often pair Pure White N1 with the three closest shades in its family — see the pairings panel below. Beyond that, pairs naturally with rattan, jute, warm timbers and bouclé.
