Romantic air
For this comprehensive master suite makeover , award-winning designer Natalie Du Bois responded to the owners ’ desire for a romantic sense of nostalgia – Resene paints formed part of her elegant design response
Besides addressing practical needs , an effective interior design naturally presents a pleasing visual composition – with close consideration of texture , colour and form . And as any professional designer knows , the backdrop is a key player in the design .
Part of a whole-house renovation , the homeowners wanted their master suite to reflect a feeling of yesteryear , with an air of romanticism , says designer Natalie Du Bois , of Du Bois Designer Kitchens and Interiors .
“ To evoke this aesthetic in the bedroom , I chose a subdued neutral grey base paint tone – Resene Half Stack – as a backdrop for the bright , cheerful floral patterns introduced on both the bed cushions and the upholstered armchair .”
A mid-tone grey , Resene Half Stack is also available as a Resene CoolColour , a paint that is engineered to avoid heat gain and as such is well suited to exterior use .
“ For the master ensuite , I introduced large-format marble-look porcelain tiles on the floor . These classic , exotic tiles are matched with a grey-blue Resene Half Tuna on the walls .”
In fact , Resene Half Tuna was employed through the rest of the interior and is offered as a CoolColour , too . Both paints are part of Resene ’ s popular Whites & Neutrals range .
