Adding open plan comfort
Homes with an open-plan living and dining space can be enhanced through colour zoning. Introducing colour helps achieve another level or warmth and character. Soft, natural hues such as Kauri Cliffs and Kūaotunu create a calming and chameleon-like colour palette to encourage moments of stillness.
Table styling
The Nourish palette embraces natural beauty, so combine colours with raw textures, honey-toned timbers and plenty of natural light for a look that feels fresh and welcoming. While brown-based neutrals can feel like quite a departure after so many years of grey, they’re a pleasure to live with and easy to decorate around.
Choose the right white: Cool whites, such as Dulux Haast Half, work best in open-plan rooms with plenty of natural light. Warm whites suit smaller and more traditional rooms.
Soft approach
Layer your home with textures, warm whites and natural timbers for a softer feel. Pair timber with soothing colours from the Nourish palette, such as Kauri Cliffs for a balanced rustic feel.
Bookshelf styling
Don’t be afraid to mix furniture and accessories from different eras. This year we’re seeing a more laidback, sentimental approach to decorating – it’s a bit of '70s, a hint of '80s, a dash of '90s, sitting comfortably alongside contemporary styles – all of which creates a wonderfully relaxed and personalised feel.
