Choosing the finish together.

Paul developed the computer design together with the customer. They chose light grey Candela as the main material for its neutral colour and subtle texture, giving the television surround, fireplace feature and low-level cabinetry a coordinated appearance.

The customer opted for dark grey acoustic slatwall as a contrasting backdrop. Warm lighting outlines the central feature and the cabinetry, while the arched recess on the right remains a distinctive part of the composition.

Real samples in the room.

The choice of finish started with a sample board brought to the customer’s home. It can be seen beside the television in this before photograph, showing how the material was considered in the actual room.

A Gazco fire sits beneath the television. The light grey Candela and dark grey acoustic slatwall bring the central feature and side cabinets together, with lighting highlighting the contrast between the finishes.
