My new paint and tile collaborations

It's a dream come true to be able to launch a range of 12 heritage colours inspired by my house in Italy – alongside an exclusive collection of matching and co-ordinating ceramics.

I’m so excited to be able to share these two collections with you today – a set of 12 colours by Graphenstone – one of the most widely certified eco paint brands in the world – and a range of matching encaustic tiles, made using traditional methods by Maitland & Poate in Spain.

I wanted to be able to combine paint with tiles because there’s nothing more frustrating than spending time and money on samples and testers to try and complete a room and then having to settle for a combination that’s close, but not perfect. This way, if you fall in love with a tile, you know you can buy the coordinating paint and vice versa. So designing a kitchen, a bathroom or even a tiny downstairs loo just got easier. And more enjoyable.

Doors in Barolo, walls in Bianca Italia – both by Graphenstone. Lucrezia tiles by Maitland & Poate.

All the colours in the paint collection were inspired by the house I have spent the past year renovating in Italy, but I have adapted them slightly so they will work well…
