Akilah on Assignment: #1 How does COLOUR make a house GREAT?

About this video

Welcome to the first in a series of films in which Akilah Cohen asks the simple question: what makes a house great? Episode one focuses on colour. Armed with a notebook (and, inexplicably, a pair of maracas), Akilah goes on assignment to find out how colour should be used in the home, what effect its use has on a space and ultimately, how colour can help make a house great. Akilah visits three locations: a colour masterclass hosted by Etté; the beautifully bold home of TMH clients Tom and Julian; and the only home ever to be inspired by a Disneyland rollercoaster – Mountain View by CAN. Akilah takes her boots off and quite literally launches herself into each story, asking probing questions other design sleuths wouldn’t dare before piecing her learnings together with Post-its and Sharpies to form a kaleidoscopic evidence board of inspiration. Buckle up. We hope you enjoy the ride.
