In the 18th century, yellow became the color of the new mansions and it also became common on the plastered buildings of the cities. Of course, in the 19th century, the common wooden houses followed suit. When the color red became too common to confer status, wealthier city dwellers chose to clad their houses in wood paneling and linseed oil paint them yellow with grey details. At first, only the street facade might be painted, but eventually the whole house was painted yellow, while the outbuildings often retained their fake red color.

Traditionally, yellow houses were painted in a milder yellow color than what we often see today. With tradition in mind, we have therefore developed a manor yellow color that gives your facade a beautiful, warm and soft feeling.

Jugendbeige is a color that was common in interiors from the 1890s to the 1930s. The color has a tendency towards ivory and can therefore easily be perceived as “impure white”, which is also the intention. In early 20th century interior painting, Jugendbeige is often combined with Jugendgrönt on panels, and the spirit of the era is further enhanced if Jugendbeige joinery paint is used in living rooms in combination with dark-bottomed paper wallpapers that are true to the period.

Djurgårdsgrön is a typical 19th century color named after Djurgården in Stockholm, a part of the capital that has a lot of buildings left from the mid-19th century.

The green color was painted on the facades and for the windows, white was used, broken with about 10 percent green umber (so-called Stockholm white).

The color is also very common as a window color and the opposite relationship is at least as common; Stockholm white facade and Stockholm white lining and zoo green window frames.
