FAQ

What is the easiest geometric pattern to paint?

Large colour blocks or a single painted arch need only tape and a steady roller.

How do I get crisp lines when painting patterns?

Use quality painter’s tape, seal its edge with the base colour and remove it while the paint is still slightly wet.

Which colours work best for geometric walls?

Pick two or three shades from one palette plus a neutral, such as terracotta, mustard and cream.
