LIFE & LEISUREREFINED MAGAZINE23MezzanineMezzanine Interiors was founded in 1999 by interior designer Lee-Ann Bell. The interior design studio and furniture brand based in Johannesburg has an impressive portfolio spanning multiple corporate clients and residential projects across South Africa and Dubai. Stand-out retail projects include the popular Johannesburg neighbourhood café Croft & Co. Hocus PocusHocus Interior Design Studio, based in Green Point, Cape Town, is another longstanding studio set to demonstrate colour artistry. Established by Marcelle Crowther in 1995, Hocus Interior Design Studio is a stalwart Decorex exhibitor previously named by Anne Roselt, a former Colour Manager at Plascon, as the stand with the most inspiring use of colour. To create the installation pods, each studio will choose a curated selection of colours from the four colour palettes of Plascon’s 2024 Colour Forecast: The Dive In Colour Palette, Origin Colour Palette, Eternal Colour Palette and Succulent Colour Palette. Dive In’s aquatic allure is captured in nature-inspired blue hues, including the vivid Caribbean Sea (G7-A1-2) and North Beach (B4-B1-1), and more gentle Aqua Pura (G7-C2-2) and Innuendo (B3-B1-3);. At the same time, the Origin Colour Palette blends classic monochromes – Ewa (72) and Light Reflection (Y6-A2-3) – with natural warmth like Rich Spanish Gold (Y1-C1-1), Ginger Biscuit (O1-C1-1) and Turkish Tart (Y2-B1-3). With its dusky, romantic shades, like Grey Archo (P1-E1-3), Ravine (62) and Fragrant Flower (B7-D1-4), the Eternal Colour Palette stands in stark contrast to the Succulent Colour Palette, which captures botanical vibrancy in Cedarburg (O4-A1-1), Majestic Mountain (G2-D1-1), and Lemon Tang (Y6-A1-3). “Each Plascon Colour Design Pod will serve as a canvas for creativity, allowing the brands to express their unique design vision and highlight the versatility of Plascon’s colour range,” says Peter N Mukarakate, Colour Specialist at Plascon. “We are excited to collaborate with these esteemed brands to create an unforgettable visual experience at Decorex 2024.”The Plascon Colour Design Pods mark Plascon’s latest involvement in Decorex after nearly 30 years of longstanding support of Africa’s leading decor and design platform.
