Recently, for example, as an experienced interior designer, I curated a flat lay of beautiful finishes to create a palette that worked just perfectly for a client. She wanted her bathroom to feel like an oasis. She loves pink – but didn’t want the space to feel too feminine. It needed to be natural, with earthy finishes. I suggested a statement stone wall with pink plaster, and to paint the ceiling and other walls in Resene Merino. We then added a quarter-cut natural oak vanity with warm cork flooring and travertine tiles in the shower. By bringing in a neutral patterned towel and brushed brass and copper fittings, we created a luxury getaway ambience, with a splash of pink for good measure in the form of the terracotta pigment plaster.
