| Colour | Hex Code | Intended Effect |
| Charcoal Grey | #333333 | Conveys solidity, modernity and a strong structural presence. |
| Soft Sage | #A8C3A6 | Adds a calming, natural feel that softens the geometric form. |
| Warm Amber | #D99A3C | Highlights functional details such as joints or handles, drawing attention to usability. |
The palette balances a dominant neutral (Charcoal Grey) with two accent colours. The dark grey reinforces the form of the furniture, making sharp lines appear more defined and giving the pieces a sculptural quality. Soft Sage introduces an organic, approachable tone that mitigates the rigidity of the form, suggesting comfort and livability. Warm Amber is used sparingly on functional elements—such as drawer pulls or leg caps—to signal their purpose and invite interaction, thereby linking colour directly to function.
Overall, the combined effect creates a contemporary aesthetic where the strong structural form is evident, the furniture feels inviting, and functional features are visually highlighted, supporting a cohesive brand identity.
