ColorSpace - custom lazure painting by robert logsdon

Client Highlight : residential
The livingroom/dining room of this Lenox, MA home is painted with layers ranging from yellow ochre to deep burnt orange to sienna tones. The dep tones are warm and inviting without being too stimulating. The featured ceiling is constructed on a wave form, and is lazure painted with water-like colors of blue and yellow-orange movements, reflecting the colors of the swimming pool outside, seen from the window and balcony. Being much lighter than the walls, the ceiling also reflects light into the room. The orange sienna walls complement the dark furnishings, paintings, black baseboard, and turquoise glass folding doors. The entire effect is formal yet relaxing.
The room opens on one side to a stairway leading down to guest rooms and recreational areas. The walls are golden and yellow ochre, creating a sunny mood. The ceiling here is viridian (light bluish green) which complements the yellow ochre walls and connects with the main entrance greenish tones. The door leading to the master suite is bluish green glass and served to inspire the colors for the house entrance and stairway ceiling.
On the opposite side of the living/dining area sliding glass doors open to the kitchen and informal sitting area. Here we are greeted by a light-filled, two-story space of pale rose and yellow, creating a cheerful and tasty environment. The trim is a raspberry color. The overall "peachy" effect feels as though it were the fragrance of the main dish being prepared.
