“Edward Bulmer Natural Paint has been built from the ground up, driven by a belief that, by making it differently, paint need not be polluting and that we can play our part in leaving a world where our children and grandchildren can thrive in balance with nature.”
Edward and Emma Bulmer, founders.
Unlike any other paint brand, their natural paints are designed, created and ‘homemade’ by leading interior designer, architectural historian and ‘colour man, Edward Bulmer. Like a top chef, Edward is passionate about every colour produced, how it has been made and the raw materials used to make it. It not only matters that a paint colour looks beautiful in your home, for Edward and the team, paint must not cost the earth.
Proud to be B Corp certified, paint for people and planet.
"Our style? Natural! Everyone needs to experience the natural paint difference.
The colours have been created by Top 100 interior designer and architectural historian, Edward Bulmer; beautiful colours that he would use in his own design projects, in paints with a proven performance, all backed up by ecological principles.
The results are timeless colours which transcend style and period, with an unrivalled response to light and the softest matt finish. They work as effortlessly in buildings with architectural bones as they do in modern spaces.
Edward has created the colours from the same family of the finest grade of earth and mineral pigments, so they all work together tonally. All the hard work has been done for you, which means they are very easy to choose and use - coined ‘Interior design in a tin’. See Edward’s recommended palette under each colour on their website or contact the team for advice."
