Every paint color begins with a little experimentation. Pigments are measured, blended, adjusted, brushed out, and viewed until the color is exactly where it needs to be.
Along the way, there are inevitably a few mixes that don’t quite land on the intended shade. Maybe they’re a little warmer, cooler, deeper, lighter—or simply something completely unexpected.
That’s where the Off Shade Outlet comes in.
Our mistakes can be your gain.
The Off Shade Outlet is always changing. Quantities are limited, colors are one-of-a-kind, and once an off shade is gone, it’s gone.
Come in, have a look, and see what mistake catches your eye.
HOW COLOR IS CREATED
These aren’t inferior products or damaged goods. They’re the same premium Sydney Harbour materials we work with every day—they simply came out differently than originally planned.
And sometimes, the mistake is pretty beautiful.
AT THE COLOR TABLE
Rather than let perfectly good paint and finishes go unused, we’re giving them a second life through our Off Shade Outlet.
You’ll find an ever-changing assortment of Lime Wash, Fresco Plaster, specialty finishes, metallics, textured paints, and premium acrylic paints—often in colors that may never be mixed exactly the same way again.
UNEXPECTED COLOR, SAME EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY
Some are smaller cans, perfect for furniture, cabinetry, shelving, samples, and creative projects. Others have enough material for an accent wall or powder room. And every so often, there’s a larger bucket with enough paint to transform a room—or two.
A CHANCE TO EXPERIMENT
It’s also an opportunity to experiment with something you’ve always wanted to try without quite the usual investment. Try Lime Wash. Work with plaster. Take home a metallic. Or choose a color you might never have considered otherwise.
ONE SHADE AT A TIME
There’s something we like about the unpredictability of it. Color doesn’t always have to begin with a specification.
Sometimes you find the color first—and then figure out where it belongs.
