nature's gift

Established in 2004 and with over two decades of floral experience, the Flower Room is known about town as the place to get the right flower for every occasion. Located in Victoria Ave in Wanganui, a recent repaint provided the ideal opportunity to dress the shop in head to toe with colours that complement branding from their business cards and signage.

Outside Resene Lumbersider low sheen waterborne paint tinted to Resene Lipstick (fuchsia pink) and Resene Spring Green (mid toned green) makes quite a statement. The stripes continue inside onto the wall behind the counter, complemented by fresh greens of Resene Oxley (mid toned green) on walls, Resene Green Pea (chlorophyll green) on ceilings and flower boxes and trim in Resene Lustacryl semi-gloss waterborne enamel tinted to Resene Spring Green. As you’d expect the finishes selected were Environmental Choice approved ensuring the shop still smells of lovely floral scents and not unwanted solventborne paint odours.

Walk into the shop and you feel like you’ve stepped into the pages of a nature book with the green providing a fitting backdrop to the bevy of beautifully coloured buds to choose from.
