Searching for impact with a sophisticated edge, the T&W style team gave Murobond's Syrup a whirl. Find out why...

The vision
Head of Styling Jessica Bellef was presented with a range of American-designed furniture, and decided to go to town - that is, to New York city.  She describes her vision: "Imagine you have been transported to a grand apartment, a classic New York pre-war home. The sort of apartment that has bedroom wings, a doorman and cocktail hour every day."

The colours
On board so far? Her next task was to work on the colour palette. To provide some contrast within the shot and create the illusion of a real, layered apartment, she wanted to use a darker colour. "When designing this shot, I knew I needed a sophisticated dark neutral on the wall," she says. After consulting the Murobond range, she chose Syrup, which Rowena Judd of Murobond describes as a "subtle warm brown/grey" - and an all time favourite for the Murobond team.

Why it works
The darker shade works well as a backdrop for the range and ties in with the grey-toned herringbone floor. "I love how the colour works with the brass accents and metallic-kissed wall art," says Jess. The white skirting board trim is a smart touch which plays up to classic American style.
