If there's one thing we know about colour, it's that it sets the mood for any space, and our brand new Restful Collection is no exception. This family of dusty pastel hues are the perfect backdrop for a calmer space and will be loved by all of those who want a little touch of colour but without the heavier saturation. 

Here’s how to bring these effortlessly soothing shades into your home.

YesColours’ Restful Collection is a family of dusty pastel paint colours creating a tranquil and relaxing space without the heaviness of too much saturation.

 

Restful Pink.

We describe our Restful Pink paint colour as a nude muted beige pink, but you could also say it's a lovable, versatile allrounder that's going to be your new best friend, either or. Restful Pink is best appreciated colour drenched on all surfaces, creating a warm and comforting embrace ready for you to layer your personality over the top.

If you’re looking for a magical colour pairing, we adore this shade together with our Mellow Blue paint colour for a fresh, coastal feel or with our Iconic Red paint colour for a bold, modern twist. Wondering where to use this soft blue hue? It's a dreamy paint colour choice for nurseries, bedrooms and guest rooms alike.

Restful Peach.

Our freshly launched Restful Peach colour is another deliciously muted warm paint shade, but this time, with added peachy goodness. This soft hue is perfect for north-facing rooms, bringing instant comfort to cooler light. It's a gentle peach paint shade that's an ideal choice for social spaces like living and dining rooms and feels right at home in a soft tonal scheme with our Nostalgic Peach and Dirty Peach paints.

Restful Yellow.

A more grounded, understated take on yellow, our Restful Yellow paint colour is warm and characterful without being too punchy. It brings a gentle vintage charm that feels timeless, versatile and practical enough to use everywhere. Hallways and kitchens will love this butter yellow paint colour and we can see this working harmoniously with our Secluded Green paint for all those nature lovers, or, for a 70’s aesthetic, try it with our oh-so-retro Passionate Olive Green paint shade.

Our Restful Yellow paint colour is an earthy, muted pale yellow hue with a hint of grey — the perfect slightly more dramatic version of the currently trending butter yellow colour.


Restful Green.

Could this be our most versatile green paint colour? We'll let you be the judge of that but we think it's a serious contender. Our Restful Green paint colour is a dusty pale green with gentle yellow undertones and is ready to steal your heart and fill your home with grace and calm. Whilst we think this colour will fit in any scheme, we love the idea of it warming up hallways and living rooms and should never be far away from a plant or two.

Restful Blue.

You're after an easygoing, soft blue that feels like a breath of fresh air, you say? Well look no further, our Restful Blue paint colour is the one. Another shade we think you’ll love colour drenched on all walls and ceilings as due to its light nature, coolness will expand and open up any space. Add glimpses of our Iconic Green paint colour for a modern and exciting edge or use our new Loving Blue paint to add depth and intrigue.

Restful Grey.

Welcome to the truly Restful world of our brand new, non-boring grey colour addition to our palette — our Restful Grey paint colour. There’s never a dull moment with this grey, its dash of blue makes it a welcoming and effortless shade, bringing sophistication and timelessness wherever it goes. If you’re using this paint shade as your backdrop, consider popping some bold and contrasting colours alongside it.

Our dopamine decor-approved Passionate Yellow, Electric Blue or Malagasy Coral paint colours make for a dynamic and revitalising pairing with Restful Grey in living rooms and kids' rooms... basically anywhere where you want to feel inspired and uplifted.


Restful Neutral.

No collection is complete without a trusty neutral, and we think we’ve made the perfect shade to accompany this family of soothing hues. Our Restful Neutral paint colour has a warm yellow base that brings an effortless sense of calm and balance. It pairs beautifully with every shade in the collection, but for a bolder statement, try it with rich oranges like our Loving Orange paint colour or with the saturated sea-green tones of Mellow Teal. You won't regret it.

We hope these handy interior tips have inspired you to bring our tranquil Restful Collection into your home. Whether you’re after a comforting, grounded feel or a soft backdrop for bolder colours, these paint colours do it all.
