Designed to transform your home into a soothing retreat, the Dulux Solstice colour palette of rich and organic hues, can cocoon us and help to evoke feelings of strength and joy. This palette is influenced by the pared-back Scandinavian design style with the added warmth of colours inspired by the Mediterranean and desert landscapes.
Solstice can create joyful, cosy spaces to provide comfort and form the perfect backdrop for gatherings and entertaining spaces that are complemented by highly textured fabrics and curved elements.
This colour palette is the story of an interior – from bringing together global influences from travels to reflecting on the history of our ancestry through objects and items handed down through time, the trend is maximalist with an eclectic palette to reflect this.
Embracing the importance of preserving traditions and treasuring heirlooms, Dulux Journey colour palette calls to weaving together the past with the present. The palette brings together rich midtone hues, with yellow-greens, such as Dulux Xena and Dulux Bean Counter, and blues like Dulux Swedish Blue and Dulux Clouded Sky, alongside rich reds and plum, including Dulux Carmen and Dulux Bruised Burgundy for contrast.
A trend that strikes the perfect balance between nostalgia and modernity, resulting in spaces that are timeless and contemporary, with a strong '70s influence and modern twists, Dulux Muse colour palette pays tribute to the design icons that have come before.
The palette's colourful array of hues creates a distinctly modern interior fused with nostalgic design references reminiscent of the '60s to the '80s, in addition to the textures and glamour from the '70s.
Midtones work best when used on all four walls, mainly in bedrooms and living spaces. For smaller spaces, you can use less volume on either one or two walls. Don’t forget ceilings and areas such as picture rails or dado rails, which also work well in midtone colour schemes.
Before choosing colour schemes and soft furnishings, it's crucial to consider elements you can’t change easily such as carpet, tiles, laminate or stone, and/or curtains and blinds that you will need to ensure work with the new colours chosen.
For colour accuracy, simply head in-store and order a sample pot or visit the colour wall to explore the swatches in your chosen colours to view them in your home’s natural light conditions.
