Influenced by shades of our natural surroundings – sea, sand, forest and sky, these finishes are an innate reminder that sometimes real beauty lies in the spaces outside the lines.

Mantra - Colormix 2020
East meets West in this collection of finishes, and both styles have entwined in the most appealing way. A unique blend of bleached, white washed and blonde finishes, Scandinavian simplicity happily engages with the order and elegance of Japanese aesthetics. The result is a look that is truly the best of both worlds. With light finishes that glide from warm to cool, it embraces all that is simple yet essential.
