A simple pleasure

In a world of clutter, why not simplify in the dining room? Look at how clean and elegant this room is, with its simple furnishings and warm, hearty wall paint colour. Keep it clean with basic vases and bowls.

Modern Style

Modern design keeps it simple, avoiding ornate decoration and expressing the modern spirit through clean lines, geometric shapes, the latest technology and materials such as metal and glass.

Modern Paint Palettes

Whites, off-white and neutral paints are the rule for modern walls. Use colours for trim and accents. Consider every element in the room before you settle on a palette. Furniture, rugs, picture frames, tile—it should all be complementary, part of a harmonious contemporary design system.
