Warm heritage grey paint
A warm, enveloping heritage grey paint with subtle red undertones, Archway House is a heritage colour recreated from a wallpaper fragment dating to c.1800, discovered near Clapham Old Town. Rich in character and heritage, it reflects the decorative traditions of early nineteenth-century London interiors, thoughtfully reimagined for modern living.
Balancing the sophistication of grey with an underlying warmth, Archway House brings depth and softness to a space. Its subtle red undertone lends the colour a welcoming quality, allowing it to sit comfortably across a wide range of interior styles.
Exceptionally versatile, Archway House works beautifully across walls and is equally well suited to woodwork and kitchen cabinetry when used in Plant Based Multi Surface Paint, where its warm grey tone delivers a beautiful, contemporary look with durable, practical finish. A timeless mid grey, Archway House is designed to bring warmth and balance to traditional and contemporary interiors.

Product data & safety sheets
Every Mylands paint is water-based and contains only trace levels of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) - far below what regulations allow. In practice, that means very little odour while you paint, quick drying between coats, and brushes and rollers that rinse clean in warm soapy water, with no need for white spirit.
Once fully dry, the finish is certified to EN 71-3:2019, the European toy-safety standard, so it can be used with confidence in nurseries, children's bedrooms and playrooms - even on painted toys, cots and furniture - and in homes with pets.
As with any paint, keep the room well ventilated while you work and let surfaces dry completely before children and animals return.
Mylands water-based paints are among the gentler decorative finishes you can bring into a home, but the usual common-sense precautions still apply:
- Keep paint out of the reach of children and away from food and drink.
- Ventilate the room well during application and drying.
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes. If paint gets into the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water and seek medical advice if irritation persists.
- If swallowed, rinse the mouth and drink plenty of water, then seek medical advice with the tin or label to hand.
- Like most water-based paints, the formulation contains small amounts of preservative, which may produce an allergic reaction in sensitive individuals.
Store tins upright, tightly closed, somewhere cool and frost-free. Never pour leftover paint down the drain: allow residues to dry out, then take them - tin included - to your local household-waste collection point.
