If you’re a fan of the soft ‘blush’ interior look, this 2-room Flexi showflat at the My Nice Home Gallery is perfect for you.
The living room features pink, white and grey shades – the primary colours of the showflat’s interior theme
The main colour palette comprises a soft pink hue, as well as shades of white and greys. White is used to create an airy and light feel while the darker grey tones help to create depth. Grey and pink tones are used strategically in the showflat – such as on the feature walls in the living room and bedroom. A variety of patterns and textures also tastefully jazz up the interior.
The kitchen comprise mainly the colour white that brightens up the space
The showflat shows how to maximise space using modular and multi-functional furniture. The extendable dining table is a perfect example – when not in use, it can be shortened to free up floor space, and doubles up as a work desk. Additionally, the sofa and bed frame both have storage compartments to keep items that you rarely use.
