b'alternative solutionbohemian luxebohemian luxe with a touch of coastal styleDesigner Amber Hamilton suggests an alternative scheme:With this design I wanted to take this new build and give it more of a vintage bohemian luxe atmosphere, but still fitting with the history of the coastal location. Using Resene Baltic Sea as a beautiful deep wall colour gives the room an inviting and nested feel with the rustic elements introduced through furniture, feature lighting and accessories. The Waylon console table from One World is made from antique recycled boatwood for instance. Lightening up the floor with Resene Colorwood Whitewash brings it all together and the kitchen cabinets finished with Resene Half Craigieburn add an element of warmth. The vaulted ceiling, ceiling beams plus all trimwork are painted in Resene Wan White from the Karen Walker Paints collection to add a fresh but soft hue which mirrors and balances with the whitewashed floorboards. Adding a slightly rustic Resene Cafe Royale splashback ties in with the Resene Wan White and makes the Resene Half Craigieburn kitchen cabinets pop. This is an effortless and inviting space to kick back and relax in.email amberdesignnz@gmail.com web www.facebook.com/AmberHamiltonInteriorsResene Baltic SeaRattan Gable Lounge ChairCorso De Fioriwww.corso.co.nz09 307 9166Resene Half Craigieburn Medium Iron Arched Mirror Resene Colorwood One World Collection Whitewash www.oneworldcollection.co.nz03 972 5584Huxley Track Arm SofaCoco Republicbefore www.cocorepublic.co.nz Ant Bronze Ram Head Lamp0800 262 673 One World CollectionAbove: Bohemian glam and coastal style dont often come together but AmbersillustrationResene Colorwoodwww.oneworldcollection.co.nzdesign effortlessly fuses the two.
