Surface attraction
This spacious home offers generous living spaces and great indoor-outdoor
flow – the exteriors and interiors are finished in crisp Resene colours
A show home always reflects the best
of everything to inspire potential clients –
this is true of all features, from the openplan layouts to the high-spec wall surfaces.
This show home by Landmark Homes
– the Karapiro – is a case in point. Besides
stand-out curb appeal, the house has flowing interiors, a separate lounge, a designer
kitchen and a sheltered outdoor room.
The cladding is finished in Resene Half
Masala, a sedate grey well-suited to the
traditional weatherboard look. To complement this tone, the soffits, eaves and

fascias are all in the contrasting Resene
Triple Alabaster – Resene Alabaster is a
near white with a light blackened edge.
The Karapiro’s interiors are as refined
as they are spacious and again the choice
of colours plays a part in their ambience.
Here, Landmark went for subtle tones that
accentuate the airy feel of the rooms and
also provide a neutral backdrop that will
work well with a variety of client tastes.
The main walls are in Resene Double
White Pointer throughout – a warmed up
neutral tending towards beige. The doors,
