20.01.2022 With the price of property sky rocketing its no wonder savvy property owners are choosing to extend down to increase their property size rather than moving. Join us on 1st May to find out what key factors you should be thinking about when considering the lighting design for the basement.

19.01.2022 LILAC GREY. Though dove grey is one of the most classic paint colours when looking for modern alternatives to stark neutral paint colour ideas, theres something a tad moodier about 2019s lilac undertone injected options. For one, the addition of lilac works to make grey hues warmer, more gender neutral and cheery. And as some of our designers favourite home interior colours revolve around varying shades of grey, an option boasting lilac tones makes for a refreshing alternative that also happens to be subtle enough to not tire of it easy.

19.01.2022 Thank you to everyone who attended Trends in Colour for 2019. Im sure youll all agree it was a wonderful day, look forward to seeing you at the next event. #happyinternationalwomensday

18.01.2022 NEW BLUE: For the traditionalist with a casual approach to interior design, charcoal blue, ice blue, grey-blue, and a very pale powder blue are great options when looking for paint colours that are far from every day yet subtle enough to not take over a room. With an endless amount of alternative blue paint colour ideas available, theres no limit to the number of routes you can go with this exacting tone. Just be sure that any blue home interior colours you go for remain soothing and spare to avoid a heavy-handed hue that will make a room feel smaller, darker, and stuck in an 80s nautical time warp. In general, when going for hues known to leave a strong initial impact, tone it down with a more muted, and subtle colour palette to get the longest run from your selection.

18.01.2022 MUTED PASTELS. Pastel derivatives in chalky, muted tones, have a soothing appeal that brings with them an understated vibe thats perfect for gender neutral rooms and common areas like kitchens and bathrooms as theyll do double duty and conceal everyday scuff marks and nicks. Plus, muted pastels make for a warm backdrop for minimalist design. We love how the kitchen featured combines the latest paint colours and a dramatic marble backsplash in complimentary tones that are su...re to make it more memorable than a standard black and white kitchen. Go for similar muted pastel paint colours if youre looking for the unexpected without having to commit to a bold colour trend or the latest paint colours being touted as an it hue as youll tire of it in the long run, and run the risk of having similar paint colours as your friends and neighbours. #colour #trends

16.01.2022 2019 Wood Flooring Colour Trends. In 2018, colours were all about extremes. Ultra dark, ultra light and not much in between. Except for every shade of grey. Grey is kinda special. Going into 2019, those extremes are still holding strong. In fact, the lights are getting even more extreme with more white-washed, beachy looks.... But youll see some warmer, middle-of-the-road hardwood flooring ideas sneaking in, as well. Homeowners are increasingly using flooring to set the tone or feel of their home. That means, we need more options! And manufacturers are responding with more beautiful colours than ever before.

15.01.2022 A friendly reminder to attend AWIDs free Get Floored presentation today, where designated experts in the flooring field will offer valuable information regarding a variety of flooring types, addressing in particular styles, materials, installation and trends. Explore with us the endless possibilities of dazzling tiles of ceramic and porcelain, fine polished concrete, and warm, all-natural timber flooring. Learn how to present whats underfoot to the very best effect.... See you today at 11am!

14.01.2022 SOFT CLAY: For those with wanderlust and an earthy spirit, soft clay paint colours are great alternatives to beiges and browns as theyll lend any room a certain sunny zest and casual elegance. Think terra cotta, caramel, clove, and burnt orange home interior colours that have more personality than any neutral ever could. For this interior design trend, we suggest going for the latest paint colours that boast unusual takes on clay tones to make any room a feature in your home or go for an accent wall or backsplash and see how effectively the hue can elevate a room and your mood with ease.

11.01.2022 The gifted woman designer draws divine inspiration from a number of sources; everything from colour palettes to coffee pots.

10.01.2022 HAZELNUT: Warm and inviting creamy shades of hazelnut paint colours are sure to never go out of style nor ever clash with existing furnishings as it makes for one comforting go-to of a hue. For hazelnut paint colour ideas in your home, take a quick survey from room to room and consider which spaces need to be brightened up and catch more light as varying shades of hazelnut are great for bouncing light off to make a room appear larger than it is. #colour #trends

07.01.2022 Kitchen Lighting Design. The kitchen is the heart of a home. Its the place where you start your day and kitchen lighting needs to be flexible to illuminate a variety of tasks from reading the morning paper to cooking and socialising. The kitchen is a room where you can really show off with your lighting and use a combination of different effects to produce stunning results. As with other rooms in the house, no single light can perform all the functions of illumination at on...ce. Layering different light sources is essential and a well thought-out lighting design should look great as well as aid functionality. To ensure sufficient light within the kitchen for food preparation and cleaning, task lighting to work surfaces is of course essential, key areas to focus light are the cooker and sink, with around 350lx being a good amount of light for these zones. With the rising cost of electricity you should be looking to use some of the many fantastic energy efficient LED solutions available to reduce your bill. If you have wall mounted cabinets, then low profile LED fittings mounted to the underside, or offsetting the cabinets a short distance from the wall and hiding LED tape behind to create a halo are both excellent ways of providing a wash of light across worktops, whilst minimising shadows. Backlit splash backs can also work really well at providing task lighting to work surfaces and incorporating RGB colour changing LEDs into these can be a fun way of adding colour to your kitchen. If you have any queries on your kitchen lighting or would like the best advice on lighting your next project then join us on May 1st where you can have all your lighting questions answered. https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/light-me-up-tickets-5746951

02.01.2022 DARK GREENS: Officially called night watch and one of Pantones top 2019 paint colours, the hue is basically a new take on rich hunter green that hasnt looked so viable since its last time in the interior design spotlight in the 90s. From muted to moody, this deep green colour trend can work to emulate the feeling of lush botanicals and the healing power of nature in your home while setting the tone with a strong foundational hue. For hunter and bottle green paint colour ...ideas, our interior designers suggest that this trend should be reserved for well-lit, large rooms as its intensity can overpower small spaces and make them look darker. And as always, when considering bringing in the latest paint colours in your home, think about what works with your lifestyle, taste, and design direction as no paint colour trend is worth sacrificing your own personal aesthetic.
