Scandinavian
Iconic Essence Arctic White is perfectly suited to a Scandinavian look. We recommend you use blonde timbers mixed with white and soft greys. Ensure there is a focus on clean lines and shapes throughout and introduce natural materials where possible for warmth. This can be in the way of blonde timbers and naturally woven rugs.
Ensure that styling is kept to a minimum as well as the use of pattern. Bold colour can be introduced in small bursts if you want to stay true to the Scandinavian aesthetic. Use textured carpets and consider textured joinery as well, like V Groove profiles in kitchens, wardrobes or bathroom vanities.
Strong
To achieve a strong look in your home, you should opt for bold finishes and Iconic Styl Silver Shadow is the perfect match. Gunmetal coloured tapware makes a strong statement in the kitchen and bathroom and really sets the scene for your spaces. Tie your tapware back with charcoal coloured tiles in fun patterns, like dark grey marble penny round tiles. Maintain a sense of sophistication with walnut timber finishes.
You could opt for pops of it throughout the kitchen joinery, floating shelves in the living area or bathroom vanities. The richness and depth of its colour will elevate the sense of luxury in this space. Use textured grass cloth wall papers and muted navy on some walls to add a sense of elegance and luxe.
Minimalist
For a minimalist look, keep your palette monochromatic and your lines clean and sharp. This type of look suits any type of home and family unit, its timeless nature means that it will remain relevant for years to come. To overcome the coolness of the clean lines, use warm greys for your wall colours to create cosy spaces. Look no further than Iconic Essence Ash Grey for your switches and power outlets.
Use sharp white engineered stone for your kitchen and bathroom vanities to heighten the sense of crispness and combine with strong charcoals in your joinery elements. Soften your spaces with hints of oak timber and add subtle amounts of texture for that little bit of interest. The key to minimalism is pairing back, invest in quality one off pieces that stand alone and stand the test of time.
Soft
For a softer look in your home, we recommend that you run with soft and dusty colours throughout your spaces for your hard and soft finishes, such as Iconic Styl Crowne. Using pastel pinks on your walls with soft creamy whites will really make your space feel sweet and feminine. Use brushed brass tapware with engineered marble stones and white subway tiles in your bathrooms and kitchen.
To freshen up this very warm colour palette, introduce lots of fresh greenery. Consider textured ivory rugs and carpets over light oak timber floors to increase the sense of space and light throughout. Ivory coloured grass cloth in the wallpapers in the bedrooms or living area will provide that extra bit of texture.
Child Spaces
The key to creating a fun space for your child whether it be a toy room or a bedroom is designing for them! Run with a concept that interests your child and apply it to each design when creating the space. Keep it light hearted, clean and with a sense of fun and playfulness. Use patterned wallpaper and pastel coloured paint for walls and joinery.
Have fun with joinery handles, think leather tabs or round timber pulls. Create places for your child to play, so keep in mind the softness of the flooring…carpet is a great solution for these spaces or use rugs over tiles or timber.
Coastal
Think classic and soft muted colours for every choice! A coastal style should really be timeless and you can achieve this by using Shaker style profiles for your kitchen and bathroom joinery. Use detailed skirtings and architraves throughout for that real classic feel.
Opt for classic tile selections, soft muted subway tiles and cararra marble herringbone mosaics for your bathrooms and kitchen splashbacks. When it comes to flooring, use parquetry style tiles or timber for a Hamptons Coastal Look. Using engineered marble stones are right at home in this style.
