Views centre stage

To allow the views to take prominence, wall colours were chosen from a neutral palette.
Interior walls are painted in Resene Parchment, a light beige neutral that can be used as a main colour in a minimalist scheme, or offset against a deeper tone. In this home, it provides balance with the exterior paint, Resene Dune, a dark grey and ochre mix. Doors, ceilings and skirting boards are painted in Resene Bianca, which is a light cream often used as a warmer alternative to white.
Kitchen and staircase: Neutral Resene colours are used throughout this home. In all rooms, Resene Bianca is used for the skirting boards and doors, in Resene Lustacryl semi-gloss waterborne enamel. Bathroom: In this sunny bathroom, light beige Resene Parchment takes on a clean, bright look, offset against a timber vanity.
