Close call - Waihou Tavern
Strolling into the iconic Waihou Tavern in the Waikato one could be forgiven for thinking it has been wallpapered.

Waihou Tavern

The interior envelope features Resene Lumbersider satin acrylic tinted to Resene Hot Toddy (rich yellow oxide) on the top half of the wall space meeting the special colour of Waihou Brown on the lower half, further worked with a Tampanada Effect finish. The Effect finish is so uniform that first impressions suggest it could only be wallpaper. Closer inspection proves that the finish is purely paintwork worked into a decorative effect through the skills of a very talented applicator.

Topped off in a ceiling of Resene Rusty Nail (orange yellow oxide) the tonings of this tavern fit the favoured liquid refreshments of its patrons.
