Paints for Breast Cancer Research

Stark, the renowned to-the-trade source for carpets, fabrics, furniture and wallcovering, announces a new division — Stark Paint, colours by David Oliver. This long-awaited four year collaboration with London based color specialist and designer David Oliver has resulted in an extensive and contemporary designer palette that spans the color spectrum with 240 new, rich, and sophisticated paint options.

StarkPaint, a new division for Stark, colors by David Oliver and The Breast Cancer Research Foundation® have teamed up to raise money for Breast Cancer Research.  There are a total of 240 colors in the new collection, and they have chosen 5 colors from their current Stark Paint palate – Oyster Lilly, Diva, Subtle Angel, Wax Bouquet and Sand 1 - for this initiative.  Stark’s new paint line is not only environmentally minded, but also chic and tastefully elegant.

Stark will be donating 10% of the sales from the above colors to BCRF beginning immediately through September 14th 2011. 

I think these colors would look great in a baby's or little girl's room.
