Café clout

Flavour of the month since its opening, Te Kuiti seems an unlikely location to find the 2001 NZ Café of the Year runner-up and home of the 2002 NZ Champion Muffin Baker. Yet this small town boasts the twice notated award winning Bosco Café, with the bold style also winning a NZIA Resene Waikato/Bay of Plenty design and colour award.

Flavour of the month since its opening, Te Kuiti seems an unlikely location to find the 2001 NZ Café of the Year runner-up and home of the 2002 NZ Champion Muffin Baker. Yet this small town boasts the twice notated award winning Bosco Café, with the bold style also winning a NZIA Resene Waikato/Bay of Plenty design and colour award.

Coated throughout in Resene, the colour scheme was developed from a base of Resene Pohutukawa (deep red). With the assistance of the colour scheme suggestions included on the back of The Range chips, the full colour scheme of Resene Wasabi (spicy green), Resene Dixie (orange) and Resene Punga (muddy green) was developed. Despite initial reservations from interested observers, the four dominating hues work immeasurably well together.

The daring scheme draws endless compliments, firmly establishing itself as a major feature and reinforcing that Bosco is the café place to go.
