Riot of colour
At the open home when they first laid eyes on their soon to be new home, the French doors opening to a deck allowed the sun to stream in and the existing colours in the children's bedroom held a welcoming glow.

Once the house was purchased, their 14 year old daughter decided that rusty brown and bright blue tones were not to her taste. So the week before they moved in Dad, John, was up extension ladders late in the night painting Emily's chosen combination of Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen tinted to Resene Christi and a custom matched pink close to Resene Hopbush to match to the pink in the bed linen.

The end result is a riot in colour. Now that the furniture, curtains and the teenager's own style of accessorising is added, it's finally a space that is truly her own creation and one that she loves.
