Looking for Tiles?

Tiles are a great option for a feature wall both inside and out. There is now a wide selection of 600x1200mm tiles, which can be an alternative to a splashback in your kitchen.  As an Interior Designer we keep up to date with the latest tiles, and recognise which ones will suit your home or building.  We also can offer discounts on the retail prices.

*Splashback at the Fisher & Paykel Experience Centre in Great North Rd, Grey Lynn- which is certainly worth a visit.

Lynfield RSA Lobby Interior Design

Lynfield RSA Lobby Interior Design

Sourcing new furniture, and choosing new paint colours to enhance the space, the paintings, as well as leading customers to the restaurant and bar were all elements to consider when updating  the large entrance lobby of the Lynfield RSA.

The wall mural of Piha fits right in with the locals, and gives the space a lift.

It has resulted in a welcoming and well functioning area, which is inviting to everyone.

Dulux’s colour Waimarama with its’ complex deep green was the perfect choice to showcase this painting.

Commercial Exterior Colour Schemes, and Why It is Important to Use the Paint Brand Specified.

Commercial Exterior Colour Schemes, and Why It is Important to Use the Paint Brand Specified.

Exterior colour schemes for houses; apartments and commercial buildings are a specialty at Sienna Design.  You are still buying the paint, so let’s get the colours right.  Having the confidence of choosing which colour combination works best for your building comes from years of working in this industry.  It is essential you use the paint brand specified, as each paint company has its own unique base and pigment colours, and this reflects in the final complexity of colour. This is particularly important with exterior colours, as outdoor light changes throughout the day and season, impacting on which colours show more predominantly at the time.  I would advise you make this clear with your painters before they begin painting.

Horner’s Confectionery – Dulux Cook Strait & Huka Falls

Horner’s Confectionery – Dulux Cook Strait & Huka Falls

This was an enjoyable project to work on last year, particularly as the owners had some vision, and were not afraid of some colour…. the right colour of course.  As it is a well known sweet company, I didn’t think the predictable sweet colours were right. The Charcoal joinery framed the Dulux colours of Cook Strait and Huka Falls with the doors in Dulux Torrent Bay, and Dulux Whangaroa keeping the vibe fresh and lively.
