Colors Used


I used turquise on the main wall to define the living room area in kitchen-living room. I added natural colors and materials like bamboo on the furniture or carpet and white on the other walls.

Color Inspiration


I was inspired by a very laid back beach bar in Portugal, close to Lisbon. it was all in white and had a nice sun drenched look. I wanted to catch this feeling in rainy Hamburg by using an ocean-related blue on the wall.

Color Tips


I am using glossy colors. that makes colors juicy. and i would suggest to be not afraid. just try it and keep it for two days. if you still don't like it, just paint it new. about concerns, which color to decide, just use your favorite colors ;)

A lovely mix of disparate elements. Well done.
