Forlongs Furnishings

Forlongs Furnishings of Frankton boasts an enviable street frontage over six separate streets with its recent expansion, a fitting development to celebrate over six decades of history for this Waikato icon.

Existing concrete block walls, fibre cement, soffits and fascias were freshened with Resene Villa White (smooth yellow white) and Resene Half Villa White (crispy cream) set against deep Resene Lumbersider tinted to Resene Tuna (resolute grey) on new tilt slab walls. The grey focus outside has extended inside in a softer tone of Resene Heathered Grey (grey brown).

When the V8s are in town, customers will have more reason than ever to spend all day at Forlongs, admiring the wares while watching the race cars zooming by.

Building Contractor (new building): Hawkins Construction Ltd
Owner: Forlong family
Resene: Peter Smithers, Waikato Trade Sales Representative
