Project Overview
Every stroke of paint was a step toward helping this home get ready to meet someone new someone ready to draw their own picture here
Bedroom
In this bedroom, the ceiling was painted with Dulux FastFinish Ceiling and Undercoat, while the walls were finished in Dulux Wash and Wear Low Sheen ‘Antique White USA’. The window frames and skirting boards were coated with Dulux Aquaenamel Semi Gloss ‘Antique White USA’. To achieve a seamless transition, paintable acrylic silicone was applied at the junction between the built-in cabinetry and walls, preventing cracks and ensuring a smooth finish. The built-in cabinetry blends effortlessly with the walls thanks to their matching tones, creating a sense of unity and calm throughout the space.
Bedroom. 2
In this bedroom, the ceiling was finished with Dulux FastFinish Ceiling and Undercoat, while the walls were coated in Dulux Wash and Wear Low Sheen ‘Antique White USA’. The window frames and skirting boards were painted with Dulux Aquaenamel Semi Gloss ‘Lexicon Quarter’. Due to the colour contrast between the wall surfaces and the timber elements, precise cutting-in and detailing were essential to achieve a professional-grade finish. A contrasting colour was chosen for the woodwork, helping it stand out and adding clarity and elegance to the overall space.
Rumpus
In this Rumpus, the ceiling was painted with Dulux FastFinish Ceiling and Undercoat, while the walls were finished with Dulux Wash and Wear Low Sheen ‘Antique White USA’. The window frames, skirting boards, and architraves were painted in Dulux Aquaenamel Semi Gloss ‘Antique White USA’. All downlights were removed prior to painting to achieve a seamless and uniform ceiling finish. Our approach always ensures consistent texture and tone across the entire surface, resulting in a professional finish from every angle. This is where comfort and coziness quietly come together a space that invites you to breathe, pause, and feel at home.
Dining room
In this dining room, the ceiling was painted with Dulux FastFinish Ceiling and Undercoat, while the walls were coated with Dulux Wash and Wear Low Sheen ‘Antique White USA’. The window frames and skirting boards were finished with Dulux Aquaenamel Semi Gloss ‘Antique White USA’. The storage door was painted in the same color as the adjacent wall, creating a seamless and unified visual effect. This approach enhances spatial continuity and contributes to a clean, modern aesthetic—a subtle yet effective design strategy often used in contemporary interiors. It may be a small space, but with family around, it comes alive. Togetherness transforms even the simplest rooms into something meaningful.

In this dining room, the ceiling was finished with Dulux FastFinish Ceiling and Undercoat, while the walls were coated with Dulux Wash and Wear Low Sheen ‘Antique White USA’. The window frames and skirting boards were painted in Dulux Aquaenamel Semi Gloss ‘Antique White USA’. Even the windows concealed behind the shutters were painted thoroughly to ensure a consistent and high-quality finish throughout. The bolder the paint colour, the more care we take with the roller—every stroke counts when vibrancy is involved.
Kitchen
In this kitchen, the ceiling was painted with Dulux FastFinish Ceiling and Undercoat, while the walls were finished with Dulux Wash and Wear Low Sheen ‘Antique White USA’. The window frames and doors were painted in Dulux Aquaenamel Semi Gloss ‘Antique White USA’. Kitchen painting requires extra care due to the high presence of pre-finished surfaces such as cabinetry, benchtops, and splashbacks. We applied thorough masking and careful painting techniques to avoid overspray and damage, achieving a flawless and professional result. This kitchen flows seamlessly to the outdoors, creating a beautiful sense of openness. It invites light, air, and connection making everyday moments feel just a bit more special.

In this kitchen, the ceiling was finished with Dulux FastFinish Ceiling and Undercoat, while the walls were painted with Dulux Wash and Wear Low Sheen ‘Antique White USA’. The window frames were completed in Dulux Aquaenamel Semi Gloss ‘Antique White USA’. Since the ceiling and wall colors are very different, we paid extra attention to the junction where they meet, ensuring a clean and precise finish. The warm-toned wall color brings a sense of gentle comfort, softly wrapping the room in a cozy embrace.
Bathroom. 2
In this bathroom, we used Dulux Kitchen and Bath Low Sheen ‘Lexicon Quarter’. Precise masking was applied where the tiles meet the ceiling to ensure a straight and clean finish.
All tiles were carefully covered with protective plastic sheeting to prevent any paint splatter or damage during the work. Even in the bathroom, the sense of warmth embraces you — proof that comfort isn’t just for the living room.
Back of house
At the back of the house, the entertainment wall was painted with Dulux Weathershield Low Sheen ‘Lexicon Quarter’, while the door was finished with Dulux Aquaenamel Semi Gloss ‘Lexicon Quarter’. To protect the natural stone flooring during the painting process, we meticulously covered the entire surface using professional painter’s drop sheets. This ensured no paint drips, splatter, or damage preserving the clean, high-end finish homeowners expect from expert painters. As you move towards the back of the house, you’ll discover a completely new space — thoughtfully designed to surprise and welcome.
Front of house
For the exterior, the eaves and first-floor walls were painted with Dulux Weathershield Low Sheen ‘Lexicon Quarter’. The ground floor was finished with Dulux Weathershield Low Sheen ‘Colourbond Ironstone’. The garage wall was coated with Dulux Wash and Wear Low Sheen ‘Lexicon Quarter’, while the garage floor received Berger Jet Dry Flat ‘Charcoal Grey’. To ensure durability and flexibility between the aged timber cladding boards, we sealed the gaps using a flexible, paintable exterior-grade silicone. This not only protects against moisture and movement but also creates a smooth and cohesive paint finish. By combining bright tones upstairs with calm, muted tones downstairs, the home achieves both vibrancy and tranquillity in one balanced design.
