They have to be equally impactful, which they are, and the designer has had to mute the colour pallete down to allow for the pattern to hero. Not everything can hero otherwise you end up living inside the roulette section of a casino. A bit much maybe…

This space is really clever. So the designer has gone with lots of pattern on that backlights wall. Almost enough to take over the space, so in order to balance this out, they have chosen a muted colour and allowed all of the piece in front of it to hero, by giving them stronger colours. 

Lights, taps, basin, styling, flowers and a beautiful natural feeling vanity. The colours all blend together beautifully and connect to the tiles but also create a stunning balance.
