Home Reno?
Dear neglected blog,
I had been almost 1 year since i moved into my new flat. so far the renovation is still an on going process. today i am gonna buy paints for all the bedrooms and bathrooms and part of the living room walls.
the idea:
the living room to be muted/natural/cold/bare. so no hot exciting color here. the feature wall has been painted with dark chocolate.
i want it to look masculine and modern, clean and no fuss.
my furniture are mostly using black and dark chocolate leather.
i have minimised the colour palette to white and off-whites for shaggy rugs, flooring, ceiling, and most other cabinet/furniture.
the bathrooms to be cool, calming and breezy. as usual all the tiles are white and some accent tiles are blue/green colour. i am gonna pick on this colour and get lighter shade of it for the bathrooms.
the bedrooms to be passionate and sexy without using any reds or shades of pink. hence i am going with purple. it somehow has a more luxurious feel to it when compared to maroon or dark reds.
colour scheme:
bedrooms feature wall, dark purple (nippon - full wine)
bedrooms other walls, baby lilac or light purple (nippon - pale pansy)
bathrooms, light blue with a slight hint of green (on hold will think again)
some living room walls, light moss green with a hint of grey (nippon - pebble walk)
also have to buy a primer undercoat because some part of the existing walls are infected with fungus. need to sort out that first!
in the end,
i bought all the paints, thanks nippon odour-less!
