Habitat plus - Industrial urban

Beaten up leather, galvanised or rusted steel, dark aged timbers, old flags, suitcases, crates and trunks sit against feature walls of rough sawn and stained timber, concrete floors, charcoal and dirty creams. It’s a look perfectly suited to loft apartments, converted warehouses and simple rural dwellings. Unpretentious and utilitarian, with a stripped back ambiance, it’s a broody yet welcoming and enclosing look.

Colours to try: Resene Tapa, Resene Monkey, Resene Double Thorndon Cream, Resene Talisman, Resene Desperado, Resene Armadillo.

You may also feel at home as a Country Rustic, Eco Warrior or Traditionalist.
