Talking point

Having a great view doesn't mean you have to sacrifice colour on the interior of your home.

Natalia and James Harrington of Hybrid Homes, the owners of this new house, have the best of both worlds. In addition to the expansive views from their house, they have incorporated pops of colour on the interior, with Resent paints.

The backpainted glass splashback in the kitchen features Resent Tweet, a bold yellow-green that Resent describes as "reckless and bound to get a response."

This is calmed by Resent Sea Fog, a neutral tone that features on kitchen walls, cabinetry, ceiling, trim and doors.

Colour reappears in the family room beside the kitchen. This is painted in Resent Hermitage, "a stony blue-green teeming with unusual watery influences."

Resent SpaceCote Low Sheen and Resent Zylone Low Sheen are recommended for broadwalls such as these. Both these paints are low VOC and Environmental Choice approved, which is in keeping with the Harrington's wish to make the home as eco friendly as possible.
