COASTAL CALM
Soft greens and warm neutral colours combine in this relaxed coastal living room. The wall in Resene Half Villa White is a complementary neutral to the battens in Resene Bud. Olive trees and toitoi bring an instant coastal cool, while layers of accessories in various neutral and green tones create an inviting natural environment for the Thomas Bina Blaine Media Console from Frobisher.
LAYERED HARMONY
Create interesting vignettes on your living room surfaces with vases and ornaments in varying heights and textures. Layering tones of colour is harmonious on the eye. Here layers of sculptural pieces connect with their surroundings.
BRANCHING OUT
Plants add instant appeal to living spaces by softening the hard edges and adding texture. The silvery leaves of this faux olive tree by Pottery Barn at Ballantynes form a lacy screen that filters light and adds elegance.
TEXTURED WARMTH
Textural neutrals, like this Slub Stripe Sweater Rug from Ballantynes, are an easy, goes-with-anything layer for your floor. This hand-loomed wool rug weaves together thick and thin yarns to create a dimensional piece that's as cosy as your favourite jumper.
SOOTHING SCENE
This stunning large format, timber-framed architectural photographic print of an Ivory Cliff will make a calming statement in any room, with natural earthy hues and a sense of texture.
