Colour: Dressage, Contemporary Collection and Milk Teeth, Historic Collection
A multi-purpose workspace will allow you to conveniently fold the day away and make dual use of your office area. There are many ways in which you can use colour to enhance the flexibility of your workspace. Whether you are using a foldaway desk or a built-in alcove to embrace the transition from day to night, defining your work area with a contrasting colour, either on the walls or with painted furniture, is a great way to emphasise this concept. Consider contrasting a bold, almost black, hue like Dressage with a fresh white like Milk Teeth for a strong impact.
Colour: Greengage, Historic Collection and Foraging, Contemporary Collection

Below, we show you just how easy it can be to create a unique and defined workspace using simple colour blocking in any part of your home, be it your dining room, living room or bedroom.
