Garin College
Like a page out of a colour chart, Garin College in Nelson carefully amalgamates colours from all tonal groups.
The exterior titan board substrate is finished in dominating blasts of Resene Monarch (deep blue), Resene St Tropaz (royal clean blue), Resene Cove Grey (grey blue), Resene Pearl Lusta (warm neutral), and Resene Camarone (bush green). All combine to give a bright, bold, welcoming colour landscape no matter what the weather conditions are like.
The rainbow-like departure from traditional neutral tertiary institution palettes has been embraced by the complete community.
