Paint by Resene. Photo by Scott Burrows The manipulation of colour and perceived space are just two ways to achieve an eye-catching interior design on a relatively modest budget.Media Merchants recently collaborated with Bullock de Barbara Architects on the design of a Brisbane office that would more closely reflect a young, progressive work culture.The agency's vibrancy and creative workings are enhanced through a number of design features, including the removal of an old suspended ceiling and then creating a colourful ceiling pattern for the concrete soffit and expressed beams. The existing three-storey entry foyer was retained and redesigned for a stronger visual link with the new office fit-out. Dynamic Resene Spotlight, a graphic yellow, was applied to the underside of the three-level staircase, creating a winding ribbon of yellow up to the first floor office and rooftop space.The palette was inspired by the dynamic team's work culture, with Resene Spotlight used as a linking device for the foyer, reception and open-plan office space. Resene Black White, a grey white, was used throughout, the neutral finish allowing the ceiling to take centre stage. Resene Freefall, a light cerulean blue, was used to create a blue sky backdrop to the higher concrete soffit ceiling over the main office. This project won the Resene Total Colour Public + Retail Award.The judges said: "Colour is uplifting anchoring what is going on at the ground floor. It's such a clever manipulation of colour, highlighted by clever lighting. With limited wall space available, the design team has cleverly used the ceiling as the main feature for maximum impact."
