The Plaza Alfaro residence in Seville is said to have inspired the iconic balcony scene in Shakespeare’sRomeo and Juliet. With its wrought-iron balustrades, sunshine yellow paintwork and blooming tropical flowers, Alfaro is a vibrant ode to Sevillian architecture in true-to-life tones of Canary Yellow & Petrol on Parchment; Ochre & Racing Car Green on Terracotta; and Dark Ochre & Forest Green on Duck Egg.
