Colour Forecast 2022
Wonder
The Wonder palette reflects our desire to be less serious and welcome fun back into our lives. Colours are playful, summery and 80s-inspired. Together they create a dreamy and sentimental feel.

A world of excitement
There’s a sense of reawakening and celebration as we prepare to connect with friends, family and our everyday lives. The wonder palette allows us to introduce colours that bring joy and optimism back into our homes.
Evoke memories of carefree days
The bright colours evoke memories of carefree days and help us imagine possibilities going forward. The Wonder palette is a celebration and acknowledgement of what joy and inspiration we can discover.

Styling tip: Adding flowers to spaces outside of the living room can enhance these areas and make them more welcoming.
Memories of carefree days
Tranquil colours can also be brought outside the home. A colourful exterior backdrop can help us view the world with a child-like enthusiasm.
