WELCOME to
THE COSY NOTES
I’m Dominey, based on the Matakana Coast in New Zealand, sharing spaces with soul, boutique stays, coastal living, and behind-the-scenes notes from my creative home and design projects. This space is about slowing down, noticing the details, and creating a life that feels joyful.
Goodbye White Walls, Hello, Moody Coastal Blue
Should we, shouldn’t we? This is the doubt-inducing question that every homeowner asks themselves before making what many would consider a ‘risky’ design choice. In our case, the decision to colour-drench our open-plan living/kitchen/dining space in a gorgeous, moody, deep, blue-green took two years of ohh-and-umming.
