The advice that interior designer Charlotte Thomas gives to anyone wanting to add colour to their home is simple: ‘Paint walls off-white or at least a neutral shade throughout when you first move in. Live with it like that for a while and learn how the light affects each room, how the rooms feel at different times of day, how you want to use each room.’
And she followed her own advice when she and her former husband purchased the beautiful period home that she now shares with her two daughters and 85-year-old father.
