b'texture, watery tones and floaty curtainsrelax!Resene colour consultant Caro Wyeth suggests this alternative scheme:This room has an infusion of natural textures, fibres and colours, layered to create a bohemian luxe feel. The scheme evolved from the colours in the fabric on the cane chairs. Resene Half Emerge is a soft watery blue, which gives a sense of calm; having it on the ceiling draws your eye up and highlights the panelled detail. Resene Albescent White is a soft neutral that adds subtle warmth. The addition of Resene Alabaster on the trims and fireplace brings a level of crispness and helps define the details. I like the mix of aged metals, worn timber and the soft linen of the couch. The artwork and light fixture on the mantel act as talking points, while the sheer Meander drapes from the Resene Curtain Collection catch the breeze and create soft movement. They also diffuse the light to add softness to the room. I wanted the space to be inviting, and not too formal.mobile027 499 0339 emailcaro.wyeth@resene.co.nzResene Half Emerge Linear sofaCorso De Fiori www.corso.co.nz 04 473 7075 or 09 307 9166 ReseneSentimentalMandy Emerson ReseneKasbah pendantartwork JigsawECC Lighting + Furniture Mandy Emersonwww.ecc.co.nz www.mandyemerson.co.nz04 473 345606 377 5163Gold Moroccan poufillustrationLET LIVReseneMalcolm Whitewww.letliv.co.nz AstralResene English WalnutCarnival fabric in greenby Christopher FarrDiva International www.divainternational.co.nz 09 523 062559'
