Colour Forecast 2021

Reset

With uplifting colours and a bold sense of renewal we welcome the new normal with open arms. It’s time to renew ourselves, by embracing unified colours and retro influences. 'Womens Business II' Limited edition print by Natalie Jade, 'Morning Pool' Limited edition print by Charlotte Taylor via Greenhouse Interiors. Colour featured: Dulux Mt Aspiring Half.

Life may feel a little slower, but each moment is enriched by building new connections with those around us.

Reset a sense of closeness

As we draw back into the comfort of our homes, we explore vivid recollections of adventure and discovery.

A subtle playful retro influence can be seen in styling and colour combinations.

Stay upbeat with bold tones

Stay upbeat with the stronger colours in the Reset palette. Bolder tones lift interiors to brighten your outlook. Vibrant pops of fun retro colour hint at '70s nostalgia.

An eclectic mix of old and new mesh together creating a happy space to energise your home.

Personalise your space

Infuse furniture, objects and mementos to add character to your interior.

We focus on family living which means furniture is functional, durable and generous in shape and form. Layering quilted fabrics can offer extra cosiness and comfort.

Add pops of colour

White is versatile and harmonises beautifully with a variety of surfaces, balancing cool concrete against warm timber.

Add pops of colour by selecting soft furnishings and decorator items with accents from the Reset palette such as Dulux Cook Strait and spicy Dulux Hot Chillie.

Dulux Mt Aspiring Half is a neutral white perfect to scheme with warmer and cooler colours both inside and out.

Make the most of outdoor living

Blur the lines of where your interior meets your exterior, with the help of botanicals, eclectic furniture, and timber materials.

Take a moment to reflect

Our gaze towards the outside and our own interior worlds, has changed. The Reset palette introduces key colours to help balance a neutral space.

Creating the look you love with the right palette for your home

Three ways to refresh your space using Nourish, Retreat and Reset for the master bedroom.

Nourish. Be subtle. Be different.

Enjoy the moments where quilted materials and subtle hues transform into an inspiring space. Embrace lighter hues to create room for statement pieces.

Retreat to an inner sanctum of peace

Take your well-loved traditions and layer them with a personal flair. Stormy blues and greys can provide a sense of calmness and tranquility.

Mix and match

Apply Dulux Cardrona to walls and ceilings in a modern home. For lower ceilings use Dulux Southern Alps to help change the perspective on ceiling height. After selecting a wall colour, artwork can guide the ideal colour accents to use within the room.

Mix your decor style with existing furniture to help unify the colour palette.
