THE PALETTES JUST GOT BETTER — MEET THE NEW CPP PALETTE COMPANIONS


Fifteen colours. More guidance. More possibilities. And, for three days only, our first ever CPP Palette Sale.

There is a point in almost every decorating, designing or planning project when the fun part suddenly becomes the difficult part.

You have found a colour you love.

Then comes the question:

What on earth do I put with it?

That question is exactly why CTRL + PIX + PRT colour palettes were created.

Not as a row of pretty colours that happen to look nice together, but as complete 15-colour stories designed to give you enough choice to build something that feels layered, coordinated and entirely your own.

And now, every CPP colour palette has just received its biggest upgrade yet.

FIFTEEN COLOURS — BECAUSE FIVE NEVER FELT LIKE ENOUGH

A small colour palette can look beautiful on a mood board.

But real homes, weddings, brands and creative projects tend to need a little more flexibility.

You might need a pale colour for the walls, something warmer for textiles, a deeper colour for definition, a softer secondary shade and just one small accent that brings everything to life.

That is why each CPP palette contains 15 carefully curated colours.

Not because we think you should use all fifteen at once — please don’t paint the entire house before breakfast. 😄

The idea is to give you a complete colour family that allows you to choose what works for your project.

Some colours can take the lead. Others quietly support them. A few add personality. And the deeper shades give the whole scheme somewhere to land.

In the CPP colour system, those colours broadly work as foundations, supporting colours, accents and grounding shades.

The result is a palette that can create several very different looks while still feeling beautifully connected.


ONE PALETTE. VERY DIFFERENT POSSIBILITIES.

Take a soft coastal palette.

One person might use it to create a light, relaxed bedroom filled with linen, pale woods and barely-there blue.

Someone else might take the very same colour story and use its deeper tones for a sophisticated coastal brand.

Another could use it for wedding stationery.

Another for artwork.

Another for a holiday home.

The colours give you the framework.

You decide where the story goes.

That flexibility matters to us.

A CPP colour palette is never intended to prescribe one finished look. It should give you enough structure to feel confident and enough freedom to make the result feel like you.


AND NOW THERE IS A PALETTE COMPANION

This is the part we have been very excited about.

Every one of our 11 CPP colour palettes now comes with its own Palette Companion.

The Palette Companion was created to bridge the little gap between:

“I love these colours.”

and

“Okay… now how do I actually use them?”

Inside, we explore how the colour system can work together, how to think about balance and proportion, different colour directions, materials and textures, ways the palette could move into interiors and creative projects, and simple colour recipes to help you get started.

It is not a rule book.

Quite the opposite.

Think of it as the helpful friend standing beside you saying:

Try this combination. Now soften it. Add a little contrast. Maybe bring that colour back over there. Yes. That works.

The aim is confidence, not restriction.

The Companion turns the palette from a beautiful reference into something much more practical: a colour resource you can actually work with.

WHAT COMES WITH A CPP COLOUR PALETTE?

When you purchase one of our palettes, you receive your colour resources digitally, ready to keep on your computer, tablet or phone and use while you plan.

Each updated palette includes:

Your A4 colour palette sheet

A clear overview of all 15 colours with their names and colour information.

Your horizontal colour strip

A compact reference that is particularly useful when you are designing, building mood boards or simply want the whole colour story in front of you.

PNG and JPG versions

Useful for different devices, programmes and creative workflows.

A PDF reference

Ideal for keeping, viewing or printing.

Your new Palette Companion PDF

The practical guide that helps you understand how the palette can work beyond the swatches themselves.

Everything arrives as a digital download, so there is no waiting for the postman and no parcel wondering why it has spent three days in Ohio. 😉


MEET THE CPP PALETTE COLLECTION

There are now 11 colour stories in the collection, and they are deliberately very different from one another.

Beautiful Shades of Coastal brings together the quiet, relaxed tones of coastlines, weathered textures and light-filled interiors.

The Hamptons House takes that coastal feeling somewhere more polished — timeless blues, elegant neutrals and the feeling of summer rooms with the windows open.

The English Cottage Garden is softer, romantic and wonderfully layered, inspired by florals, greenery and the slightly imperfect beauty of a garden that has been loved for years.

The Amalfi Villa carries warmth, Mediterranean light and the easy elegance of sun-washed villas and coastal landscapes.

The Nordic Light House is calmer and more restrained, with the kind of colours that work beautifully when you want breathing space, softness and understated warmth.

The Highland Picnic brings in countryside character, muted natural tones and that cosy, collected feeling that works so well with texture.

The American Porch has a relaxed, welcoming quality — classic without becoming themed, and easy to carry through interiors, gatherings and everyday living.

Beautiful Shades of Pink explores pink as much more than one colour, moving through softer, warmer and more grown-up possibilities.

And then there are our seasonal stories.

The Almost Haunted House brings a softer, moodier approach to Halloween.

The Winter Welcome is made for the quieter, cosier side of winter.

And The North Pole Almanac takes Christmas somewhere wonderfully nostalgic and storybook-like.

Different places. Different moods.

The same idea underneath them all:

Beautiful colours are only the beginning.

FOR INTERIORS — BUT NOT ONLY INTERIORS

We love seeing colour palettes used in homes, but that is only one possibility.

CPP palettes can also help shape weddings and celebrations, stationery, branding, websites, packaging, social media graphics, artwork, seasonal styling, creative projects and finished products.

So perhaps you are choosing colours for a living room.

Perhaps you are building the visual identity for a small business.

Perhaps you are planning a wedding and have reached the highly technical design stage known as:

“I have saved 847 Pinterest images and somehow know less than when I started.”

A proper colour system can make that part considerably easier.

CPP STYLING NOTE

When you first open a 15-colour palette, resist the urge to choose everything.

Start with one light foundation.

Add one or two supporting colours.

Choose an accent you genuinely love.

Then bring in one deeper shade wherever the design needs definition.

You can always add more later.

Colour usually feels more sophisticated when it has a little room to breathe.


AND NOW FOR THE CELEBRATION…

We have never held a CPP colour palette sale before.

But after spending rather a lot of time turning every palette in the collection into something even more useful, this felt like a very good reason to have one.

OUR FIRST EVER CPP PALETTE SALE

40% OFF ALL 11 COLOUR PALETTES

Every palette in the sale already includes its new Palette Companion.

So if there has been a colour story sitting in your favourites — or if you have been waiting for an excuse to discover one — this might be it.

Because sometimes the best place to begin a new room, celebration, brand or creative idea is not with the finished picture.

It is simply with colours that make you think:

Yes. That feels like me.
