inspired exteriors

From Habitat plus - decorating and colour trends 2021

We've been seeing more and more pops of colour being introduced to home exteriors, adding refreshing curb appeal among oceans of neutral weatherboards.

Whether it’s a section of creatively-coloured cladding, a front door in an eye-catching hue or a collection of freshly painted pots lining your front walkway, it often doesn’t take much to make your home a standout.

Yellow front door: What better way to greet guests than with a joyfully coloured front door painted in Resene Turbo? Weatherboards in Resene Triple Concrete, trim in Resene Black White, decking in Resene Woodsman Mid Greywash, bench, house numbers and stencilled mat in Resene Tuna and plant pots in (from largest to smallest) Resene Nocturnal, Resene Silver Chalice and Resene Black White. Outdoor shower: Wall in Resene Green Meets Blue, deck in Resene Woodsman Uluru, shower column in Resene Nepal and Resene Sea Fog, shower platform and shelf in Resene Woodman Pitch Black, breeze block planter in Resene Sea Fog and Resene Green Meets Blue, mirror frame in Resene Breeze and hook rack and soap dispenser in Resene Nepal. Showerhead from Plumbline, chair from Cintesi.

Wall in Resene Triple Merino, deck in Resene Woodsman Tiri timber stain, screen in Resene Bounty and Resene Big Stone, ombre plant pot in Resene Gull Grey and Resene Balderdash, medium plant pot and pendant lamp in Resene Half Alabaster and small plant pot in Resene Bluff. Sofa and table from Outside Spaces, cushion from Collect Living.
