Christchurch home
For many, artworks are the finishing touch, carefully selected to work with the existing room colours. A home in Beveridge Street, Christchurch, turns the traditional on its head with the owners briefing their interior consultant to use their artworks as the inspiration for the interior colour and lighting plan.
Working from the floor upwards, a low level loop carpet touches on the industrial, adding depth of colour to complement designer roller blinds. Walls and ceilings on the upper level are finished in Resene Black White (blackened white), a colour that stays true to tone when bathed in the natural light. The lower level moves into a palette of Resene Parchment (beige neutral) complemented by the wooden flooring. Feature colour Resene Schooner (brown oxide), provides the doors and den area with depth.
The low sheen finish of Resene Zylone SpaceCote waterborne enamel is the perfect backdrop for the extensive art collection, allowing the art to stand proud without fear of reflection.
Outside Hebel with Resene Black White was just the finishing touch needed to create the client's dream home. From artwork to dream home, reversing the order has given the right results.
