โColour Conscienceโ is the latest addition to the Haymes Paintย colour library (Volume 11 to be exact) and it features three distinct palettes that bear distinctly un-paint-like names. ‘Cohabitate,’ ‘Contribute’ and ‘Comfort’ run the gamut from sweet pastel colours to masculine, monochromatic schemes.
Cohabitate is a fresh, uplifting, sorbet-hued palette and the most strongly feminine of the three. Think peachy pink (โStreamwoodโ), warm grey (Greyology 3), a gorgeous pale blue (โChina Blueโ) and the yellow-toned โAntique Whiteโ which are all about creating spaces that nuture, foster togetherness, recharge and reinvigorate their inhabitants.
Haymes Paint suggests styling these colours with blonde woods, terrazzo inspired flooring and accessories, gloss and matte finishes and geometric shapes.
In contrast, Contribute is all about moody monochromatic colours โ dark greys (โCastlegateโ), deep browns and mid-tone neutrals (โMemory). So while thereโs a distinct lack of colour variety to this palette, Haymes suggests itโs all about layering up mixed materials for a strong, textural feel.
Style this monochromatic palette back with natural materials such as marble, stone, travertine and wood alongside stainless steel, greenery and ceramic items for a moody, luxe vibe.
Comfort combines dark green (โBlack Oliveโ) and teal (โVikingโ) with two-tone reds (โBerry Juiceโ and โNostalgia Roseโ) for a sumptuous feel designed to cocoon.
Encouraging calm, these dark intense tones inspire rest and quiet and look fabulous paired with tactile materials such as velvet and rattan. Lush, dreamy bedding layers including textured throws and cushions finish off the look.
