The light in a north facing space has a much higher proportion of blue light compared to warmer south facing rooms, casting a blue tint in interior spaces. Embracing limited natural light can make a space feel colder and darker.
Here Victoria Yardley, Managing Director of Victory Colours, shares her top tips for creating a warming, welcoming colour scheme.
• Avoid Blues & Greys
Light in a north facing room can be limited therefore, opting for lighter and warmer shades will enhance your space, creating a more inviting feel.

• Warm It Up
Warmer shades and hues have the capability to infuse warmth whilst adding a cosy touch, helping to compensate for any cooler light that enters the room. Creamy whites, subtle yellows or a blush pink could be the way to go.
• Stay Grounded
Earthy and neutral colour palettes can provide a sense of grounding and warmth to a space. Tones such as muted browns, soft terracottas and warm taupes can create a welcoming and comfortable feel amongst the surroundings.
• Go Eco
When selecting the colour that is right for you, quality eco paints will ensure a stylish and sustainable solution. These high quality eco-friendly paints not only enhance your space but will also allow you to entirely transform your room.
