Paint

I've been using Farrow & Ball paint (which I love) for our house but because of the cost I'd like to find other options that are as nice. Has anyone used Yolo?

We've used Farrow and Ball - love their colors, as well as Ralph Lauren, Benjamin Moore and Behr. They have all been fine. F&B have beatiful colors that do look better, more saturated, than some other brands, but you do pay for it. We did a great red/wine colored dining room in our back parlor using Ralph Lauren "Raspberry" something or other (can't remember the full name) with dove gray plaster molding and another lighter white/gray tone on the ceiling. I'd say Ralph Lauren is pretty good too. Sorry for the ramble!

Are the RL paints "environmentally friendly" too? Any recs for such paints that might be cheaper than F and B?

Try Benjamin-Moores' new "Aura" line.
