Decorating articles and inspiration from TrendsIdeas
To retain the European character, natural earthy tones were specified for several rooms and passageways.
These include Resene Double Pavlova, which features on walls in the formal sitting room.
Designer Mark Wilson says this shade helps make the space more intimate, and works well with the timber furniture. The colour is contrasted by Resene Quarter Spanish White, which was used on the ceilings, architraves and cornices.
For visual continuity, bedrooms and passage-ways feature Resene Pavlova – a slightly lighter version of the colour in the formal sitting room.
Wilson says he specified Resene Zylone Sheen Zero to ensure a professional, smooth finish. This Environmental Choice-approved paint is a low-sheen acrylic for interior broadwall areas. As it is free of no added volatile organic compounds (VOCs) Resene Zylone Sheen Zero can help prevent headaches, asthma, nausea, respiratory com-plaints, and allergic reactions. It also provides a better working environment.
