Winter
Summer
Autumn

Add a sense of energy and fun to any neutral space

Create fun, eye-catching accents in unexpected places, such as doors, the inside edge of a wall or door frame, along a staircase or in a storage nook. Complete the look by painting smaller pieces of furniture in the same hue, adding tonal accessories such as cushions, artwork and glassware.
A cool white such as Dulux Ōkārito is the perfect pairing to Dulux Cuticle Pink and Waitiki Landing.
Small doses of exuberant shades can have a big impact. Transform a white space by incorporating uplifting colour and prints.

Styling tips for Summer 2018 by Pip Brett - Dulux Trends Contributor

  • Declutter your interiors so that furniture and accessories have plenty of room to breathe.

  • Seek out retro furniture with organic shapes and simple lines.

  • Add in plenty of luxe textures – think soft furnishings and accessories in sumptuous velvet, silk and sheepskin.

  • Introduce bright artworks that pick up on this season’s bold, tropical hues.

  • Touches of gold will add a glam feel.

  • Don’t forget greenery – indoor palms and ferns will bring a botanical-inspired interior to life and help you create a happier, healthier home.
