Sizing is a crisp blue-neutral with an airy, tailored edge
Sizing reads like a freshened-up neutral with a cool, blue tilt. It feels cleaner than Shadow White and brighter than Blackened, making it a refined option for rooms that need lightness without starkness.
It is excellent for modern-period spaces, pairing well with pale oak, brushed nickel, and blue-grey accents like Pigeon. Keep contrast soft by using Strong White on trim.
Where Sizing works best
- Open-plan living rooms that benefit from a clean, bright base.
- North-facing bedrooms where you want cool calm rather than coldness.
- Hallways with limited light that need a lifted, fresh feel.
Finish guide
| Surface | Best finish | Why it works |
|---|---|---|
| Walls | Matt or eggshell | Maintains clarity without making it feel icy. |
| Woodwork | Eggshell | Adds a soft crisp edge to trims and doors. |
| Ceilings | Flat matt | Keeps the room bright without shine. |
Pairing ideas
Layer Sizing with gentle blues such as Skylight or Borrowed Light, and keep the scheme grounded with warm linens and light timber.
