White

White is never just white. There are warm ones that lean to cream and cool ones that lean to grey, and a room gets its character from how they sit together. The best white rooms are full of texture: matte ceramic, sheepskin, linen and glass, each reading slightly differently in the same light.

This edit gathers white pieces from across the store: 3D printed ceramic vases like the Amelie and Anouk, the Oval Linen Pendant Light Shade, a Leitmotiv Milk Jar glass pendant, the Umbra HUB round mirror with its white rubber frame, the Karlsson Jewel wall clock, Tinge and Grace alarm clocks, and an Icelandic sheepskin. There are also neon LED wall lights in heart, star and lightning bolt shapes, Potted watering cans, and plush toys from Lily & George like Peter the Polar Bear.

Pick one base white for walls and large pieces, then layer objects a shade warmer or cooler for depth. For sharper contrast, see our monochrome edit.

How do I stop a white room feeling cold?
Add warmth through texture and material rather than colour. Sheepskin, linen, pale timber and matte ceramics all soften white. Choose warm white bulbs, and bring in one natural element like a stem or a jute rug.

Do different whites clash?
Only when they are almost the same. Very close whites can make one look grubby next to the other. Either match them exactly or make the difference deliberate, such as bright white ceramics against a creamy linen shade.

Do the neon wall lights need a power point?
No. Our heart, star and lightning bolt neon LED wall lights run from USB or batteries, so you can hang them where there is no socket nearby. They suit kids' rooms, shelves and bar areas.

How do I keep white ceramics looking clean?
Dust with a soft dry cloth and wipe with a damp one when needed. Matte and 3D printed surfaces have fine ridges that hold dust, so a soft makeup brush reaches into the texture without scratching.
