COLOUR, MATERIAL + FINISH INSPIRATION SUMMER EDIT PART 1

On the B+P site and socials, we’ve kicked off our summer content series, exploring four colour and material stories and how they fit in with our signature finishes. Led by our founder and creative director, Massimo Buster Minale , the series offers some gems of inspiration. In our first instalment, Massimo looks at steel.

For those familiar with Buster + Punch, steel is a staple. Its adaptability is unmatched, seamlessly blending into any interior style. As Massimo often points out, the beauty of steel lies in its ability to guide you towards the perfect palette of materials and colours for your design.

“Steel lets you know the colours it works with,” says Minale, noting that it’s a finish that loves to be used with blues, yellows and greys.

Massimo's colour stories are a journey through the latest design trends. He starts with Colour Blocking, a narrative with power and impact. Then, he presents Tech Grey, a cool and stylish combination of materials and colours that promises a progressive, contemporary look. The final story celebrates Cobalt Blue in the retail space, in a combo aptly named after it. ??

Feel free to steel (it had to be done) all the looks, colour codes, and imagery for your mood boards, hit the site to gather the goods, and check back in a week for our next film examining Buster + Punch’s Black finish.
