Hi everyone, we have moved in! We didn't manage to paint before we moved and think we will go for a staged approach - above the wood panels first in a warm white then decide on the panels. I'm having a bit of trouble working out what kind of sofa to buy and how at arrange the lounge. All furniture except coffee table temporary in photos and would love some ideas!

try going to Hamilton Parker on Lenard ave. off 670 it is in downtown area and will give you great ideas.

Hi Dalene, the colour is technically not black but a dark charcoal grey. Anything in that colour tone paired with a timber benchtop will steer towards that industrial look - just use a lighter shade of a cool grey (similar to the one in the Garden St Residence) and perhaps bring in some black accents in the tapware and drawer handles for some punch.

Pressed metal splashbacks are so rare! This is the first photo I've seen with a splashback like this and I'm really enjoying it.
