Softly sage

CREATIVE DIRECTION AND PHOTOGRAPHY Charlie Rose Jackson STYLING AND WORDS Shelley Sweeney

The alluring soft pastel sage of the Chic Slipcover 3-Seater Sofa from Askö Design sits pretty with a neutral backdrop in Resene Grey Olive.

Gentle grey, blue and green shades are synonymous with spring. Here, the cool green sage of the sofa stands out against the warm brown-green sage wall in Resene Grey Olive, providing a natural connection to the sandy gold of the jute rug.

Blooming proteas bring seasonal colour echoed by the textural throw. The sandy hues of the cushion and vase connect with the rug. The deep green and black striped cushion, black and olive vase, green foliage and olive tree bring nurturing comfort, anchored by the black coffee table, planter and cushions.

CALM AND CASUAL The relaxed comfort of the linen Chic Slipcover 3-Seater Sofa sets a spring-like mood. The lightest shade of mint green sage is almost white, a welcoming centrepiece for any living space.

SLEEK AND LOW The Inca Coffee Table has a beautiful black wood veneer tabletop on powder-coated metal legs. Its generous size and low height combine looks with practicality that doesn’t steal the spotlight.

CUSHY COMFORT Natural linen cushions with feather inners bring quality and comfort, connecting the three colours of the space.

ENDURING JUTE The natural fibres of jute are warm underfoot and create a casual, coastal vibe. Here, this sandy jute rug connects with the earthy green of the wall in Resene Grey Olive and the sandy tones of the protea vase and sofa cushion.

Styling tip:
Try the rule of three and use varying shades of a trio of different colours like this green, sand and black setting for calming comfort. You could also use a warm, light beige like Resene Biscotti or Resene Cashmere on the wall, and Resene Teak as a stronger accent.
