Palette of exclusive colours
From AC Matiere inception, our intention has been to develop a palette of original colour that would mirror our inspiration sources; the changing colours of the sky, the warm tints of the Earth or the breeze in a garden. Fifty shades have been created, all of them a result of choice; a parti pris, of a selection of deep and intense colours; bright yet not aggressive, soft but not dull. These colours are produced as Acrylic Casein paint, which is high quality and very matt.

Harmonies and contrasts
Our palette has been designed to allow our clients to contemplate their surroundings in colour, easily marrying harmonies and contrasts in order to create personal compositions and co-ordinates:

 |
 |
 |

| New York Blues + Lichen | Figue + After the storm |

 |
  |
|||||
| Bambou + Sand + Chalk | ||||||
Combining colours and textures
Texture and colour are at the heart of our decorative work, intrinsically and intimately linked. Elements of relief, texture and thickness reveal and intensify the colour, creating vibrancy and permitting the effects of shade and light to play.
Our palette may be used to precisely select a choice of dominant colours for the panel and then to provide a choice with which to decorate walls in co-ordinate colour. The resultant contrast between the texture panel and the smooth matt wall then becomes particularly interesting.
