The third example is a hallway in a Villa.
This space did not have any natural light, and was a difficult area to work with as almost every room in the house opened into it.
The client wanted an extensive color palette throughout the house; therefore this central space was critical.
A deep rich red/brown (Sanguine Brown) was used below the dado rail; this enhanced the color of the timber floors and created a warm glow.
Tapa (a mid tone grey) served as a neutral backdrop for the client's collection of artwork.
As the Tapa was at eye level, being grey and neutral the other spaces could take on their selected colors without their perception being altered.
This was a very clever solution to a difficult space.

Soft and subtle color for this bedroom, creates quiet sophistication. |
The final example is a bedroom. The client had existing blue accessories for the bedroom and wanted to select blue for their walls to work with the carpet. Robin's Egg Blue was selected.
This color is soft and muted being a combination of blue and green, ideal for a bedroom space as it keeps the room peaceful and tranquil.
The subtly works well as it creates the backdrop for the bed to be the focus of the room, with is elegant bedspread and cushions.
A quiet sophistication. This space is a reminder that keeping a scheme simple is often the best choice. |
To summarise, although relatively new to the design industry, Rhondda shows a passion, drive and commitment to her clients, which can't be faulted. Color consulting is a specialist field.
There are a lot of people who cannot visualise what they want, color consultants like Rhondda can interpret your visions and make them a reality.
