The first thing they did when moving into their new Oslo apartment, was
to paint it all white…
‘We were in such a great hurry with our move, as we were expecting our
son Otto to be born any day, and so he arrived the day after we got our
keys.’ says Synne Skjulstad. As soon as they had got used to their new
arrival and their ever so ‘nice’ nest to bring him up in, they got out
their paints and wanted to play…
They started off with a bucket of glossy signal-red oil paint and
dressed the hallway with built in storage solutions and shelves. Then
they moved on to a patch of bright yellow in their Amish dove grey
kitchen. These two colour choices and the dominant painting in the
sitting room led them to an acute stop in their process. The solution
came when trying to ‘’keep up with the Jones’s’’.
When at the home of their architect-neighbours Andreas Joyce Nygaard and
Heidi Pettersvold they started thinking of their home as having the
look of a boring council office! So they asked their neighbours for help
with the rest of the colour chart...
