Dreaming in Colour
Yes, most people dream in colour, though not everyone recalls their dreams with the same level of vividness. Studies suggest that around 80% of dreams involve colour. However, some people may perceive their dreams in black and white, often influenced by their exposure to media. For example, older generations who grew up with black-and-white television report more black-and-white dreams compared to younger generations exposed to colour TV and media.
Considering many of Harry Seidler’s iconic commercial and residential buildings were first photographed in black and white, we loved the idea of reimagining these buildings in full colour with some favourites from our new Solid Axminster Collection, whose namesake is Seidler himself.
Solid colour Axminster carpet is a high-quality, woven carpet known for its luxurious feel. Made from premium wool or blends, it offers a soft texture and excellent insulation. Its uniform appearance suits various interior designs from classic to contemporary, and it’s easy to maintain. Additionally, Axminster carpet improves acoustics by dampening sound, adding to its appeal for upscale settings like hotels and theatres. Overall, it combines aesthetic appeal with practical benefits and is revered as a three generation carpet due to it’s excellent durability.
Please enjoy this reimagining of some of Sydney’s most iconic Seidler spaces from the Rose Seidler House to the iconic studio apartments of the east, Gemini and Aquarius in our Solid Axminster Collection.
Our minimum order quantity as always is a low 16m² and our standard spec is 7*10*8 but we can manufacture in all ranges of density and pile height. We can colour match our solid to any colour. Please view the Seidler product page here.
