Inside the V&CO x SheerLuxe Paint Collection: 3 Elegant Shades For Every Home
Created in partnership with V&Co
Meet V&CO
V&CO is a premium British paint brand creating sophisticated, design-led colours for those who want to make a lasting impact with colour. Dead Flat Matt is an ultra-matt finish known for its exceptional depth of colour, rich pigmentation and ability to absorb light for a beautifully velvety appearance – ideal for colour-drenching schemes that create an immersive look across walls, woodwork and furniture. For those looking for something truly personal, V&CO's Love It. Match It. service uses advanced colour-matching technology to transform treasured items – from a favourite lipstick to a cherished scarf – into a bespoke paint shade, allowing homeowners to take inspiration from the things they love most and bring them into their interiors.
The V&CO x SheerLuxe Palette reflects this design-first approach, offering a curated selection of timeless shades created for contemporary living. Here’s how we’re using 3 of the colours…
The Lu
Soft, serene and effortlessly elegant, The Lu brings a sense of calm sophistication to this beautifully balanced living space. We love the idea of using this creamy neutral shade on all walls, panelling and architectural details, creating a seamless backdrop that maximises the room’s abundant natural light. Thanks to its warm undertones, the scheme never feels stark – instead, there’s a welcoming softness that enhances the classic proportions of this period building.
This room embraces one of our favourite trends: quiet luxury. A pale upholstered sofa sits centrally beneath the expansive windows, reinforcing the tonal palette while adding texture and comfort, while the classic window treatment of flowing floor-to-ceiling curtains amplifies the airy atmosphere.
We used natural materials, such as the herringbone wood flooring and sculptural marble coffee table, to introduce subtle contrast and depth without disrupting the room’s tranquil feel. Our minimal yet thoughtfully layered styling keeps the focus on craftsmanship and proportion, proving how a refined neutral like The Lu can create a timeless foundation for living today.

The Sapna
We always want our bedrooms to feel like a retreat from the fast pace of day-to-day life and The Sapna works beautifully to create a restful atmosphere. We’ve used the golden tan shade across the walls and bespoke fitted cabinetry, enveloping the room in a soft glow that feels both elegant and comforting. Thanks to its subtle yellow undertones, we can imagine it enhancing the morning light filtering through the windows, creating a welcoming warmth as the day begins.
Our decorating scheme embraces tonal layering, with textured curtains and velvet cushions echoing the warmth of the paint colour, while crisp white bed linen provides a fresh contrast. To add interest, we went for a striped upholstered headboard, which introduces subtle pattern and texture. Meanwhile, dark timber bedside tables and statement lighting bring depth and sophistication, grounding the lighter palette.
With tailored joinery to elevate the space further and floor-to-ceiling wardrobes maximising both storage and architectural impact, we’ve shown that you can combine functionality with style. Paired with soft neutrals and natural textures, The Sapna demonstrates how a warm, golden hue can create a classic bedroom that feels inviting and effortlessly refined.

The Vanessa
Earthy, sophisticated and calming, we chose The Vanessa for this study to create a serene space for both productivity and relaxation. A place to work and reset, we decided to use the soft green shade across the walls, bespoke cabinetry and window seating, to create an immersive colour-drenched scheme that feels connected to nature while remaining timeless and elegant.
The room's tailored joinery, with built-in shelving, storage drawers and architectural detailing, is all finished in The Vanessa – our cohesive approach allows the craftsmanship of the cabinetry to take centre stage while enhancing the room's comfortable feel. Warm timber flooring introduces contrast and warmth, while woven baskets, patterned cushions and ceramic accessories add texture and depth.
Our styling remains relaxed yet refined – think botanical artwork, fresh flowers and collected books reinforcing the colour's organic appeal. Flooded with natural light from the large sash windows, the space feels bright and welcoming despite its rich palette. By pairing natural materials and soft neutrals, The Vanessa demonstrates how green can create a study that is both restorative and functional.
