KCC has published ‘RE-ACT (Repainting Apartment Color Trend),’ a comprehensive repainting guide that analyzes the exterior design trends of recently built apartments and, based on that analysis, introduces distinctive color designs for repainting older apartments.
Apartment repainting, typically carried out on a five-year cycle, is the single most important factor in extending an apartment's lifespan. By forming a paint film over exposed concrete surfaces, it completely blocks contact with water and air, keeping the concrete healthy. Recently, to the point where it can be said that even an apartment's appearance is a competitive advantage, interest in complexes with attractive exteriors has been rising in the real estate market, and there is nothing quite like repainting when it comes to beautifying a building's appearance and transforming the atmosphere of a complex.
KCC provides a color-design support service for apartments planning to repaint their exterior walls. Under this service, KCC's environmental color experts analyze new-build case studies and propose apartment exteriors that take the brand and surrounding environment into account. The newly published ‘RE-ACT’ compiles all of the outstanding color-design case studies that KCC proposes. Beyond exterior wall design, you can review a wide range of color-design examples for every space that requires repainting, including interior corridors and parking areas.
The apartment repainting color designs proposed through ‘RE-ACT’ are broadly divided into six themes: △Cozy Soft (a soft, bright color design) △Pure Soft (a soft, clean color design) △Stylish Layered (a sophisticated analogous-color design) △Stylish Vivid (an eye-catching, vivid color design) △Elegant Grayish (a refined, weighty gray-tone color design) △Urban Grayish (an urban gray-tone color design). Each theme's design examples are rendered as they would appear when applied to an actual apartment, making them easy to review.
‘RE-ACT’ is also highly useful in that, ahead of its repainting design proposals, it allows readers to examine the latest design trends through new-build brand apartment case studies. Apartment repainting projects are generally decided by gatherings of resident representatives, and the recent trend, regardless of region, is a preference for the sophisticated design of newly built brand apartments. Because buildings differ in shape, finishing materials, and so on, it is difficult to apply the exact same design as a new build, but there are a growing number of cases where a similar exterior is achieved by borrowing comparable colors and combining dominant, secondary, and accent colors. Drawing on design know-how accumulated over many years, KCC analyzes and develops the manual colors of leading domestic construction companies' brand apartments and applies them at countless sites. By continuing to collaborate with construction companies and responding swiftly to change, KCC is able to propose outstanding color designs suited to each site in the repainting market as well.
A KCC official said, “We will provide the best repainting service so that the optimal designs proposed by KCC's environmental color experts can raise residents' satisfaction and enhance the brand value of apartments.” 02-3480-5000
