Moodboard of the Month with Celestial White

With a strong influence from natures’ tones and hues, perhaps this is a New Zealand take on the Hamptons style? The moodboard features a subtle movement from the marble stone, Celestial White, the movement representative of our all-encompassing night-sky, while blue/grey/green tones blur the lines between the colours of our oceans, skies and fauna.

Aptly named, Celestial White is the hero stone in this creation, which draws on the movement of our galaxies, and the tones of twilight.

The stone’s base is described as a soft grey or a cool off-white, which provides a depth and richness to the stone.

The veining is then added, in a soft faint form and unique sprawling pattern. This creates a fascinating depth & movement throughout the surface as if the veins were moving with the night.

However, Celestial White is still, a traditional marble, albeit softer and not as haughty as a strong Calacatta marble. The result is a surface that is natural, timeless and still true to the navy’s and off-whites of the Hampton’s style.

Celestial White is relaxing with its a strong correlation to the New Zealand twilight, yet invokes a tradition and indulgence of a luxurious Hampton’s home.

Finally, the hardware embellished the moodboard with classic British style hardware.

Polished Nickel was selected as the hardware finish. This finish combines the warm undertones of nickel and reflective polished finish of chrome into a beautifully traditional and indulgence finish. Not only is the polished nickel finish a nod towards traditional style, but the style and design of the cabinet handles.With beautiful edged detailing in this Calgary cup handle and knob range, these cabinet handles would also complement the typical recessed Hamptons cabinetry.

And of course, without blowing our own trumpet, the refined detailing of the bugle is truly beautiful. And in the Hampton’s style, the inclusion of the bugle is historically relevant as a connection with British royalty and American military.
