b'i love itTwo designers choose their favourite three colours from the Resene The Range fashion colours fandeck. Getting emotionalInterior designer Debbie Abercrombie often asks her clients to choose colours based on the following three emotions:Find a colour that is pleasing: My choice is Resene Regatta. A pleasing colour should be used in rooms in which we spend a lot of time. Resene Regatta is a classic navy, and is fresh when teamed up with soft whites and with a touch of green. It reminds me of a wonderful sailing holiday I had last year.The next colour should be inspiring: Resene Kakapo does it for me. It is a colour we should use when creative thinking is required. This green is like a new shoot, new beginnings, new ideas. Lastly, look for a relaxing colour: Resene Ragamuffin has caught my eye. Its a chalky rather than stark white and can be easily combined with my two more saturated colour choices.
