How they read
In their own wordsPixie is a lime wash colour from Portola Paints, which describes it as a "playful, sophisticated peach" and a blend of its El Matador and Potter's Clay colours.
Costes is a Portola Roman Clay — a hand-applied plaster finish rather than a paint — in a dusty rose-terracotta. Because Roman Clay is troweled on, the color is never flat: it moves between pale pink and deep clay across a single wall, and the surface has a soft, suede-like depth that photographs like stone.
