Crisp in
white
A fresh, cool backdrop
to black-stained timber –
Resene Wan White
makes a bold statement
A monochromatic colour palette can
pack a lot of punch, especially when the
contrasting shades are black and white.
This contemporary country house
designed by Guy Shallard of Latitude
Forty-five features such a palette. Walls
and ceilings in the house are painted
in Resene Wan White by Karen Walker,
chosen from The Range Whites & Neutrals fandeck, which offers a collection of
classic, contemporary and favourite
whites and neutrals.
Resene Wan White is described as an
umber white that is a little warmer than
grey. Here, it is teamed with black-stained
American oak, blackened steel and black
aluminium joinery.
Shallard says he used the same colours
throughout the house to provide visual
continuity. In the bathrooms, Resene Wan
White is painted on rough-sawn cedar
boards to enhance a raw country look.
To help with your colour choice, The
Resene Whites & Neutrals fandeck has an
extensive collection of whites and neutrals, with up to six strength variations
of the most popular colours. This can help
you create a tone-on-tone colour scheme.
