find a colour

inside your living spaces

Today living and dining rooms are most often one. This space increasingly extends to an integrated kitchen. Socio-economic and cultural evolutions have significantly reduced residential surface areas. In their wake, socialising at home has become restricted to the occupants’ inner circles. Formality has given way to conviviality, bringing down walls. This however creates the need to structure these open spaces otherwise and also to optimize the use of space. Furniture plays a major role in delimiting physical space with regards to functions. Paint significantly contributes to visual structuring. Consequently, choice of colours, degrees of brilliance and texture are all-important to set atmospheres, for accentuation, to dynamise and express the personality of that all-inclusive space.

Matt, smooth, silky, shiny—these are various degrees of brilliance to choose from our acrylic emulsions. You can also mix different finishing effectively to create attractive contrasts. Mauvacryl is perfectly matt and is very helpful to hide imperfections and irregularities with no less bright colours. Mauvitop is a chic sleek matt with 15% brilliance; it produces a smooth feel and speaks of sober elegance. Cashmere presents 25% brilliance and a subdued sheen which sets an intimate ambience and diffuses an all-enveloping warmth for a cosy cocoon feel. VIP Satin is formulated at 50% brilliance. It is a sheer revelator of light by day or by night.
