The Hague, the third-largest city in the Netherlands, is famous for its rich history and stunning architecture. However, there is one particular home in The Hague that stands out for its unexpected and tropical oasis. Owned by Yvonne, a certified color consultant and founder of ColorXpression, this house tour will take you on a journey through a vibrant and diverse space that perfectly reflects Yvonne's love of color and her family's extensive travels.
Upon entering the house, visitors are immediately drawn to the big greenhouse, filled with lush plants and abundant natural light. This space serves as the heart of the home, connecting several areas and transporting visitors to a different continent. Yvonne and her family spent thirteen years living in Malaysia, and their love for warmth and lush flora is reflected in this unique feature of their home.
As visitors wander through the house, they will notice Yvonne's love of color on full display. Her expertise as a color consultant is evident in the vibrant and fun melting pot of different countries and cultures represented throughout the space. Malaysian keepsakes are well represented, alongside mementos from Africa and Yvonne's very own eye-catching creations. She uses existing ceramic items and other materials to make tiered platters, with blue and white cups and saucers giving them a traditional Dutch look, like a modern-day experimental Delft Blue.
Despite only living in the house for less than two years, Yvonne and her family have transformed it into a warm and welcoming home, filled with personal touches and Yvonne's magic color touch. It's hard not to be impressed by the impact of colors on your surroundings and your mood, as Yvonne's clients can attest. This house tour is a must-see for anyone looking for inspiration on how to create a colorful and unique home that reflects their personality and travels.
