WORDS Shelley Sweeney
Deep blue
The New Zealand-made Frankton Sofa from Frobisher stands out against a deeply soothing backdrop of Resene Epic. Eye-catching contrasts of coral and blush velvet cushions bring warmth and energy, while the watercolour blues in the Eldoris Cushion in Ocean have a grounding influence that invites relaxation.
Deep dark shades such as Resene Epic create a cocooning effect in living spaces. Here the crisp elegance of the Frankton 4-Seater sofa carves a striking silhouette with colourful accessories to add drama.
Upholstered in Mokum Strata Chalk, this sofa is made with comfortable elephant memory foam with a viscose gel core. Tension spring seats relieve the compression of the foam cushions for luxurious comfort that maintains its shape.
Versatile style
The Nordic design roots in this hardwood stool from the Kristina Dam Studio Collection are evident in this versatile piece with cut-out design that also works well as an elegant side table.
Textural vessel
The textural warmth of the three-legged bowl from Kristina Dam Studio is made from terracotta with a band impressed into the clay and a glazed water-resistant interior.
Comfort and colour
Small accessories such as these Ava cushions by Weave are easily swapped out to add contrast or tone the colours down for a calming effect if desired. These heavenly, soft velvet look cushions are available in 20 colourways with a premium feather inner. Abstract landscapes are printed onto pure linen in the nature-inspired Eldoris Ocean Cushion. Made in New Zealand, the watercolour layers in forest tones bring an earthy, natural feeling to this space.
Warming appeal
Perfect for incorporating texture, Matisse is a loom-knotted, marbled plain rug that brings visual appeal and mixed colour for a complex and unique style. This beautifully soft rug is ideal for creating dimensional, stylish spaces.

Organic green
The organic shapes and minimal lines of the Modena chair from BoConcept exude warmth against the grounded, muddy green of Resene Rewilding and neutral floor in Resene Open Sesame.
The floral arrangement is the perfect winter décor accessory, adding both textural and tonal comfort to this simple, nature-inspired vignette. The bouclé cushion connects the chair with the backdrop inviting you to sit down and relax in this elegant nook where the curved side table and vase echo the soft comfort of the surrounding organic shapes.
