Wall
Dark Door
Dark Door is a moody blue-green that can add depth and character to any space. It is beautiful as a feature colour inside or outside.
A sense of liberation
Decadent fabrics such as velvet, silk and natural leather can be paired with one-off vintage finds, such as a quirky 1960s lamp or an authentic 1940s mirror.
Evoke a '70s disco vibe
Exaggerated curves in sofas and general seating evokes a ‘70s disco vibe. Additions such as marble and oxidised metallics add a luxurious and modern edge. Styling tip: Using a combination of rich and soft earthy tones can give your space a layered effect.
Wall
Discretion
Discretion is a dusty reddy brown, this midtone colour pairs well with warm whites such as Natural White® and works well as an accent colour in living spaces, bedrooms and on the exterior of the home.
A new adventure awaits
Deep, dark hues combined with bright splashes of colour give this palette a rich and sophisticated feel. Styling tip: Adding in a few luxurious accessories further enhances the colours in the palette.
Warm and welcoming
