The retro look of steel windows, doors and screens is very much ‘in’. Crittall says they don’t have to be just rectangular and white… Interior designers and home decor in uencers say retro naturalistic greens, bright colours, sky-blues, purple-blue hues, vibrant yellows, sultry black will make up the colour palette for chic home-owners this year. The trend is for home-owners to be more adventurous in the shapes of windows and door styles too. As the ‘eyes’ of your home they deserve the attention - adding a det touch o  air highlights your individuality and gives your home a unique characteristic style - that’s you. Curves and rounded shapes are back – and authenticity and hand-crafted products are the hip buzz words.

If you’re building a new house, or an extension, you want to bring each room into use as as soon as possible. Painting the newly built walls is often the last step in a long process that you want to be fi nished Using paint with a high level of breathability means that moisture doesn’t become ‘trapped’ beneath the surface of the paint. Using a non-breathable paint can lead to damp walls, causing the paint to bubble, peel and eventually blow completely and contribute to a harmful living environment. The easiest way to ensure you’re creating a sustainable, environmentally sound specifi cation is to chec the paint is Ecolabel approved Earthborn paints have achieved this demanding standard, which covers every aspect of a product’s manufacture, use and disposal. Because they are virtually VOC free, they do not give off any toxic emissions, so rooms can be brought into use more uicly and are much healthier or the build ing and its occupants.
