Talking point
Colour enlivens the interior of the sustainably
designed Hybrid Homes house. Resene
paint features throughout
Having a great view doesn’t mean you
have to sacrifice colour on the interior of
your home.
Natalia and James Harrington of
Hybrid Homes, the owners of this new
house, have the best of both worlds. In
addition to the expansive views from their
house, they have incorporated pops of
colour on the interior, with Resene paints.
The backpainted glass splashback in
the kitchen features Resene Tweet, a bold
yellow-green that Resene describes as
“reckless and bound to get a response”.

This is calmed by Resene Sea Fog, a
neutral tone that features on kitchen walls,
cabinetry, ceiling, trim and doors.
Colour reappears in the family room
beside the kitchen. This is painted in
Resene Hermitage, “a stony blue-green
teeming with unusual watery influences”.
Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen and
Resene Zylone Low Sheen are recommended for broadwalls such as these.
Both these paints are low VOC and Environmental Choice-approved, which is in
keeping with the Harringtons’ wish to
