Fashion for walls

MANILA, Philippines - The chic designs, intriguing textures, and beautiful prints we thought only wallpaper could achieve can now be created with simple (brush) strokes, and a can of this magic “potion” that could turn ordinary walls into a fashion canvas.

Giving wallpaper manufacturers a run for their money, Nippon Paint’s Momento Special Effects range allows fashion-savvy homemakers to “accessorize” their homes in quiet elegance.

With Momento, you can energize your living room with vivid hues inspired by the hot days of summer, or create a calming, relaxed atmosphere with an eclectic mix of understated brights, pale pastels and knockout neutrals all by yourself.

“Nippon Momento Special Effects paint boasts a textured range of coatings created to give homeowners more options to wall decoration beyond just color. It’s easy to apply so there’s no need to hire a professional (home) painter so it’s cost-efficient, too,” says Bernice Bobadilla, Nippon Paint (Coatings) Philippines senior marketing manager.

The Nippon Momento Special Effects range comprises of the Textured Series, a unique paint that creates especially textured walls with an opaque wall finish featuring four effects — Elegant, Sparkle Silver, Pearl and Gold variants; and the Enhancer Series that works as a textured over-glaze to enhance any new existing wall color. It has two special effects: Frost and Cloud.

“Offering the added sensorial dimension of touch, walls jazzed up with Momento now sparkle to life with a variety of effects like gold, silver and even a pearlescent shine,” Bobadilla adds.

And since Nippon Momento is made of low volatile organic compound (VOC), it is free from harmful chemicals such as lead, mercury, chrome and heavy metals. It promises a healthier and cleaner indoor environment so you can start working on your accent wall project even while your kids are playing in the living room.

“What’s more, consumers can explore the various textures and colors of the brand by using the Nippon Colour Creations App that allows them to find the perfect shade at the swipe of a finger,” adds Bobadilla.

And so, whatever hues light up your personal spectrum, you’ll definitely find them at Nipponpaint.ph.
