The clever red palette on the Clark Street Overbridge in Auckland by Architectus has been awarded top honours in the Resene Total Colour Awards for its unique use of colour on a very public space.
Resene has a long history of colour, with colours such as Resene Spanish White and Resene Pearl Lusta created over three decades ago still continuing to be top choices for decorators today.
With thousands of colours available, the key is not just choosing the right one, but putting it together with complementary colours and accents to bring the colour palette to life. The Resene Total Colour Awards were launched to encourage and celebrate excellent and creative use of colour.
