It is the total sensory experience of colour that counts – colour that envelops us and alters our perception of space, transporting us to a brave new world.

A sense of drama, adventure and sensuality are created by means of a palette so pure and saturated that the colour almost vibrates or pulsates with intensity and energy. Studies have shown that the visually impaired acknowledge colour – they sense the vitality of yellow, the energy of orange, the heat of red and the calming character of blue.

New technologies in lighting, plastics and glass have affected the way we perceive colour. Galleries, spas and nightclubs are bringing daring new concepts of colour usage to a wide range of domestic and commercial buildings.

Microscopic textures and translucent materials permit light and colour to move and alter space in intriguing new ways. Glossy, lacquered and highly polished surfaces allow for maximum drama through reflection. The result is futuristic without being sci-fi, space altering without being confusing.

The palette mixes pure neutrals with the gel-like, almost fluorescent shades of chemical yellows, electric greens, laboratory pinks and liquid crystal blues – a playground palette of luminosity that reflects the high energy living of today with a vision of things to come.
