Every new home is a journey of creativity, passion and life. Your new home is something to be proud of and should bring you joy. Part of the process of building your new home is the colour, fitting and fixture selections.
This moment in the design process of your new home is one with limitless possibilities. For some, this is an exciting endeavour, for others, it can be daunting and stressful.
We understand this is the case and aim to make this process as easy as possible by creating our INH Fast Track Schemes.
The INH Fast Track Scheme puts seven ready-to-go colour combinations into the hands of every INH new homeowner. This gives you the confidence that no matter what colour combination you choose, you will be getting a beautiful home, inside and out.
These seven colour schemes range from cool neutrals, warm tones, bright whites and dramatic darks. Each scheme builds on contrast and aims to create an atmosphere in your home.
Each Colour palette has its own style and colours. The cool thing is, that you can change it up by choosing from Tiles for your main floors or the various ranges of timber and vinyl options. And no matter what you select, you have peace of mind, knowing that the selections have been put together by a professional interior designer, so they all work within the palette chosen.
SCHEME 1 - Urban Edge:
This cool and contemporary palette is perfect for city living. Using the beautiful dark Colorbond Monument colour for the roof, and other shades of greys, and whites, it creates a sleek and stylish look.
SCHEME 2 - Stoney Ridge:
A natural and earthy scheme that also features heavily with the popular greys of the present, Stoney Ridge features soft greys and contrasting crisp whites. The roof is the popular and fresh blue grey of Basalt. The look has a Hamptons feel with the Australian coastal edge to it. It’s perfect for creating a warm and inviting atmosphere especially teamed with warm timber furniture accents and textured rugs throughout the home.
SCHEME 3 - Organic Earth:
If you want your home to feel like a coastal nature retreat, Organic Earth is the scheme for you. With its soft blue greens (Colorbond Windspray) that can look like the water of the ocean or the Eucalypts in our Australian outback; and deep ocean blues (Ironstone) , which also compares to the haze of the Eucalypt trees so prominent to our mountains; it brings the outdoors in beautifully. We love how it has soft neutrals and whites that go with any choice of interior furniture or soft furnishings.
SCHEME 4 - Granite Belt:
This scheme offers dark shades of charcoals and greys, seen on rocks, which can be used to create a natural and timeless look. The scheme is easy to use and can be paired with other neutrals or bright colours for a pop of contrast. This is perfect for anyone who wants to inject some personality into their home. With bold greys and black accents, this scheme will give your home an edgy feel. It has enough neutrals in it to also be compatible with many peoples tastes. Great for those outback places that have red dirt that gets into every piece of clothing or footwear!
SCHEME 5 – Coastal Drift
This scheme draws its inspiration from the seaside colours of the beach and the ocean. The movement of sand drifts and the warmth of the cliffs and mountains close to the water's edge. It features whites and oak floors, creamy beachy tiles, and light and airy colours that are perfect for creating a relaxing coastal atmosphere. So if you're looking for a simple way to stay super neutral but not in the grey tones, but allows you to add your own pops of colour to your home, this is the scheme for you!
SCHEME 6 – Sandy Desert
The sands of the desert gave texture and beauty that is unique and ever-changing with the winds and the weather. These lovely neutral-coloured grains give us the inspiration for this soothing palette that works well with almost any design. It is a versatile colour scheme that looks great in both modern and traditional homes.
SCHEME 7 – Aussie Hamptons
Inspiration for this selection of colours is easy to reference and know its origins – the beautiful expensive homes of Long Island New York have been given a simple Aussie twist. The scheme is not elaborate like those American homes but has some of the beautiful elements of our own version, with the colours and textures, the lovely James Hardie Linea or Primeline cladding being a mandatory feature of the look, as well as the white trims always associated with the façade of these homes.
