Hei! I hope you can help me with the following. Feel free to answer me in Norwegian. My son speaks Norwegian, so I can ask him or google translate to translate for me. The basis color of our house is sommersne and I love this color. (At the ground floor we combine this with sophisticated blue, deco blue and cashmere and this is a beautiful combination - from the 2016 lady colors). We are now renovating the attic where sommersne is also the base color (and because of the high ceilings I wouldn’t want to change this). I would like to combine sommersne here in the attic with warm colours like ochre clay. We’ve actually ordered a pot of paint in ochre clay already but we haven't received or used it yet. This is where the problem starts. I think that sommersne and ochre clay are not the best combination, or are they? I see that sommersne is recommended with beige, grey-ish and blue colours, but not with warmer ones. For a small lower ceiling in this room (in the dormer window) we thought to introduce a third colour: sens/sans 1875, chosen on the basis of the fact that it is a recommended color for ochre clay. We’ve painted this small ceiling this morning but the match with sommersne is not great, probably because sens/sans is yellowish, while sommersne has a bit of grey in it and they are both quite light. These two colours are immediately next to each other, while ochre clay will be a bit further away. To complicate things further, we thought to also combine these colours with darjeeling. (The room is quite big). The reason for darjeeling is that I like this picture: https://www.jotun.com/me-en/decorative/interior/colours/6236-darjeeling-interior where it also combines nicely with yellow/orange in the bed linen etc (so I thought maybe also with Ochre Clay?). But it’s not necessary to use Darjeeling (it can also be a different colour, or we can stick with the colours that we have already). So the situation is: I don’t want to change the sommersne basis of the big attic. I would like to introduce a warm color for the bedroom side of the room, preferably Ochre Clay which we have ordered already. Is there a way in which we can make this work? The sans 1875 and sommersne contrast doesn’t seem right. Is there a different not too dark color that is a better fit (as a direct neighbour of sommersne but also with ochre clay further away)? Would washed linen may work for this (we have left-overs from that one already)? Do you think darjeeling is a good match with the other colours or do you have other recommendations? I hope you can help me! Thank you in advance.
