01 / The palette

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

Let time leave its mark.

A cool glint against a warm, dark ground. The patina sequence is illustrative, not a prediction of chemical aging.

Fresh red-gold copper with fine scratches and subtle hammering.
Partly weathered copper with dark oxidation and blue-green islands.
Copper covered by mottled blue-green mineral patina.
A weathered surface

An illustrative comparison of three surfaces. Patina position is a visual blend, not a prediction of ageing time or chemistry.

Illustrative patina position: 50/100. Cool accent: 8%.

Sources & interpretation

An imagined Burgundy-inspired cellar and guesthouse. Les Heures is a demonstration identity, not an actual accommodation listing. Copper patina illustrations show authored surface states without asserting a time scale, corrosion model or conservation recommendation.

The Pinterest reference informed the palette and material direction. Room, object and material imagery were created for this study. These are imagined settings, with no affiliation to the fictional interface brands.

The controls explore screen composition, not physical pigment recipes or material measurements. Image rights · Image permissions
