Warm and welcoming
A communal media and billiard room in the upmarket Hereford Residences
benefits from the warm, near-black wall tones of Zeus by Resene
No single design stroke influences the
look of a space more than its colour. For
this communal media and billiard room in
the refined inner-city Hereford Residences,
developers Tawera Group and Josephine
Design wanted a warm ambience – and
their choice of wall tone achieved that.
Hereford Residences are the result of a
dramatic transformation from out-dated
office building to luxury apartments. The
project won the 2017 TIDA New Zealand
Apartment Award and, as well as offering
exceptional harbour views, includes an
infinity pool, a gym, and roof-top deck.
Another shared facility for occupants
is the modern media and billiard room.
Josephine Love, director of Josephine
Design, says they wanted the media room
to have a warm, homely air.
“Essentially, this is a second lounge for
apartment owners, where they can watch a
family movie, play pool or simply hang out.
To achieve that cosy feel we chose Resene’s
Zeus, a dark anthracite, for the walls.”
This was specified in Resene SpaceCote,
a flat waterborne enamel with a rich matt
finish that brings out the depth in darker
colours. This finish is also more durable
and easier to clean than standard acrylics.
