Discover the paint brand that promises to put creativity at the heart of your decorating schemes
Benjamin Moore is the paint brand you need to know about before you start your next decorating project
Creative paint choices can bring unique beauty to a home – and the more inventive they are, the better. But, every so often, you may find yourself stuck in a decorating rut. Sometimes the right ideas just don’t reveal themselves to you.
However, open up your design horizons a little and you’re sure to find the perfect starting point for your decorating scheme – and more likely than not it’s going to be a colour that kickstarts your design inspiration. That’s where Benjamin Moore – the colour aficionados – step in.
Not only does Benjamin Moore have a great breadth of colours to consider for your home, but they’re also experts at providing creative ways to use paint and colour so that you can create rooms that truly capture your personality and individuality. Want to get to know Benjamin Moore’s paint a little better? Here's why they have become our go-to brand...
Put quality first
It is best to go for paint colours that make you happy and have longevity. Before you select a new colour for your walls, you’ll want some reassurance that you've chosen a quality product. Is it durable? Does it have a good finish? Are the colours pigmented and rich?
With Benjamin Moore’s paint offering, you know you’re in safe hands. Depending on your priorities, you can also find the paint that’s best for the job at hand. If getting the perfect colour is top of your agenda, Aura is the paint for you. With Colour Lock technology, your colour choice will look richer and truer.
On the other hand, Regal Select is a great choice for spaces where you need your paint finish to be tough. It’s a durable, washable paint that makes it an optimum choice for heavy-wear areas like kitchens, halls and kids' rooms.
And then, whether you’re a confident painter or not, Benjamin Moore’s Ben paint is specially formulated to be easier to apply - that means a smooth finish every time and easy touch-ups.
