“I used Valspar for my…”

I used Valspar for our box room, which we transformed into a home gym and wellness space. As busy parents of three, my husband and I hardly ever get time to properly work out or focus on our wellbeing. So having this space at home has honestly been such a blessing. It’s somewhere we can both move, stretch and reset and even the kids are loving it. We’re planning to set up a little boxing corner for them too — they’re obsessed!

“The inspiration for my project came from…”

The inspiration came partly from scrolling Pinterest and seeing how people were turning small spaces into functional wellness zones. It inspired me to take that step and create something for our family too. It made me realise that you don’t need loads of space to prioritise your health and wellbeing.

“I wanted to make the room…”

I wanted to make the room feel calm and inviting, a little pocket of peace in a very loud, busy house! We needed something that worked for both me and my husband to work out or stretch in. To me this space represents balance - that mix of wellness, movement, and calm that we don’t always get in the chaos of parenting!

“The colours I used are…”

We used Creamy Latte in Valspar Premium Walls & Ceiling, Matt, 5L — and it completely transformed the room. We were drawn to it because it felt warm and grounding, but still so fresh and open. It really makes the space feel bigger and more peaceful, which is exactly the vibe we wanted. It’s one of those colours that just works no matter the time of day — the light bounces beautifully and it instantly creates a calm, inviting atmosphere.
