A material study / 046
Rose Quartz
Hazy pink, raffia & white clay.
A quiet bedroom in Madagascar’s colors: soft pink plaster, undyed silk and a raffia headboard, with kaolin white, grey quartzite and the dark brown of a vanilla pod.

Six colors, one atmosphere.
Screen colors are authored interpretations. Material photographs show surface character; they are not calibrated color samples.
02 / Play with the composition
A softer kind of pink.
Let kaolin white and rose plaster carry most of the room, use raffia and silk for texture, and keep the vanilla brown to wood and iron. Compare a chalky matte finish with a luminous one below.

Sources & interpretation
A contemporary room and specimen arrangement inspired by rose quartz associated with Madagascar. Colors are authored from a styled arrangement. The optical note summarises a commonly cited explanation, not a laboratory finding about any stone shown.
The palette follows the authored material references in this collection. Room, object and material imagery were created for this study. These are imagined settings, with no affiliation to the fictional interface brands.
