Decorating articles and inspiration from TrendsIdeas
Both the house exterior and the interior colour palette, a mix of light and dark neutrals, were chosen to enhance the home's tropical ambience.
Resene Akaroa features on the exterior walls, and is also the main shade on the interior. This muted pebble grey colour from The Range Whites & Neutrals fandeck is paired with Resene Arrowtown, an earthy and dense neutral, which adds a dramatic touch to feature walls.
Painted in Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen, the interior also highlights an environmentally friendly paint option. The waterborne enamel is an Environmental Choice-approved paint that is well suited to family living areas, as it is tough, durable and washable. In critical light areas, its reduced side sheen minimises surface imperfections.
Designer Mark Wilson says he specifies Resene paints for all his projects – for a number of reasons, including the diverse colour range and the technical service and back-up.
To help you work out the best colour selection for your own home, Resene releases a new The Range fashion fandeck each year.
