It’s time to break out of the mould and show us the real you. Identity speaks to the radical, non-conformist in us all. It empowers us to live on the wild side and express our true inner creative. Who cares what anyone else thinks? Featured: ‘Untitled no.23’ original artwork by Max Lawrence White, Modern Times; ‘Blue Savana’ original artwork by Mim Fanning, Studio Gallery.

Rules and conventions are thrown out the window, freeing us up to experiment with a bold and individualistic vision. Filled with fun and spirited energy, bursting with the spontaneity of youth and wild optimism, colour becomes the adrenaline for our senses.
Colour me happy! Unusual combinations of saturated blues, purples and oranges against a base of paler notes are the perfect palette for expressing true individuality.
You don't need colour on every wall to make a daring and adventurous statement. Experiment with the smaller architectural details, applying a colour that will transform them into a special feature.
A mish-mash of modern multi-cultural influences call up the colourful, futuristic vibes of sci-fi fantasy and off-the-wall selfie culture. They empower us to be brave and confident and to flaunt the fabulous, colourful quirks and flaws that make us who we are.
Anything goes with Identity, so choose what you love, go with what makes you smile and create a bold, optimistic statement in your home. Your bedroom is a perfect place to start experimenting with colour and defining your style.
Bold hues can be used to call out simple, unassuming architectural details transforming them into features within your home. This gives you the option to feature strong statement colours such as Devils Staircase and Manapouri in small but impactful doses.
Simple geometric features can create amazing backdrops for graphic art. We have selected Manapouri and Taylors Mistake hues to complement this artwork rather than distract from it.
The Dulux Colour Forecast is about more than colour, it helps bring trends to life in your home through styling and accessories. Here we take you through key elements and styling tips for the Identity trend.
Any art goes in Identity but graphic art especially fits this trend. Making a bold statement with strong colour combinations, graphic patterns and quirky details is a great way to perfect this look.
A white kitchen can be just as bold and creative with the addition of a few key details. Coloured pendant lighting and brightly coloured stools will lift the look and bring some fun into your kitchen space. Add a simple coloured detail on an adjacent wall for some contrasting colour.
