first blush

Is it blush, is it pink, is it peach, tan or nude? The delicious Resene Rascal walls of this living room are all of the above. Lending a modern take on a classic Cape Cod look, the colour replaces the usual duck egg blue. Teamed with warm creams, faded black and dusty blue, it’s a little bit country, yet so sophisticated too.

The floor is painted with Resene Quarter Sandspit Brown, the shelf and shutter are Resene Half Biscotti, the sideboard and tray are Resene Gumboot, the closer side tables are Resene Spanish White, the small table is Resene Dusted Blue, the small plant pot is Resene Wafer, the bowl is Resene Sour Dough and the tall vase is Resene Quill Grey.
