Habitat plus - take a seat
The sculptural lines of these tub chairs and the clean white of the leather makes them a stand-out feature against any wall – especially a wall that uses some striking colour.
Taking inspiration from the cushions and the wonderful circular artwork, we have walls in deep golden yellow, through to dusky purple. All of these colours could be used as a feature wall behind the chairs, or carried on around the room. With the glossy floor tiles and plenty of light, this space can stand a fairly bold treatment.
Top tip: Minimise fly spots on ceilings with Resene Fly Deterrent. Designed to discourage flies from sitting on the painted surface, it reduces the appearance of unwanted fly spots.
1.Taking a more muted approach, this scheme uses the diluted stony grey-green tones of Resene Eighth Tana to give the area an ephemeral and cool ambiance. On the ceiling and trims, is the crisp starchiness of Resene Eighth Rice Cake.
2.The murky grey-brown depths of Resene Masala are the perfect backdrop for this setting, beautifully framing the artwork and white chairs. The colour also echoes the delicate fleck in the floor tiles. For the ceiling and trims, Resene Merino is a light and versatile offwhite with a green oxide undertone.
3.For this setting, we’ve taken Resene Merino again but in its quarter strength of Resene Quarter Merino, making it contrast more strikingly with the intense inky violet tones of the Resene Half Aubergine wall. Rich and dramatic, this colour gives a hint of purple without overdoing it.
4.For those who like a bit of sunshine in their lives, this wall in Resene Fuel Yellow is full of fun and chirpy good nature. A great way to wake up in the morning. Keeping on the warm side of white, the ceiling and trims are painted in Resene Eighth Pearl Lusta, a versatile quixotic creamy neutral.
