Edward Bulmer
Edward Bulmer, the founder of Edward Bulmer Natural Paint, has over 30 years of experience designing interiors. His expertise as one of the nation's foremost architectural historians lead him to believe the future lies in the return to natural materials, especially paint.
Edward has been leading a natural paint revolution creating pioneering plant-based paints made entirely from plant-based ingredients instead of petrochemical derived products. This dedication to creating eco and health-conscious products has led to Edward Bulmer Natural Paint becoming one of the most in-demand brands for renovators who are looking for responsible, chemical free materials for the home, being used by interior designers and clients around the globe.
Edward is part of a new generation of designers working on historical houses with an eye on designs that appeal to contemporary families and active lifestyles while at the same time respecting the classical traditions that have made the British country house style so popular today. With a modern eye, Bulmer combines his love for the well-worn and timeless, with natural textures as well as rich new color palettes and finishes, as embodied by his line of all-natural, toxic-free paints that embrace both traditional and eclectic tastes.
