WHICH HUE FOR YOU?

Inspired by the joyful eccentricity of English boutique hotel interiors, this feminine maximalist look is a feast for the eyes that thrives on a bold clash of patterns and colours.

The Olive Bedhead from Wink Design stands out against the brand-new pinks of Resene Valentine and Resene Inspire. These wall colours soften the hard edges of the black checked linen duvet and cushions in stripes, floral, checks, and pink velvet. The look is pulled together and grounded by the solid black and pink of the side table, throw, and chair.

The pink shade of this Qeeboo Ribbon Chair sits comfortably between the two wall colours and is designed to lighten the mood of any space, with a curved ribbon back to bring the sweetest of dreams into this whimsical bedroom.

Against a plain backdrop, this classic gingham-checked duvet set would be the focal point, but here it simply holds its own among a collection of objects with equally strong personalities. Maximalism is all about self-expression and the layering of patterns and textures. There are no rules here, apart from limiting your colour palette to create cohesion.

This black and white striped lamp is perfectly at home in this environment, echoing the stripes on the wall and cushions while connecting with the black of the duvet and side table. It’s a practical piece with a fun personality.

The solid block of black from this Tomo side table has a grounding influence, and its contemporary silhouette with shelf also acts as a blank canvas for the striped lamp and pink books, with wall colour peeking through connecting each element.
