How To Guides
All white for a crisp palette
Opting for an all-white colour scheme is a brilliant choice, especially for narrow and small hallways. The reflective properties of white work wonders in maximising the perception of space, creating an illusion of expansiveness in even the most compact areas.
White naturally enhances the brightness and openness, making your narrow hallway feel more airy and welcoming. Find the right white for your hallway.
Embrace soft hues for a tranquil entryway
Welcome serenity into your home by embracing subtle hues and soft colours in your entryway. The careful selection of muted tones creates a soothing ambiance as you step through the threshold.
Soft colours, such as Dulux Gabriel's Gully, infuse your home with a sense of warmth, making every entrance a tranquil and inviting experience.
Dulux Wash&Wear® is great for high-traffic areas, like your hallway, thanks to a superior washable finish that you can trust to wipe clean again and again.
Decorate your hallway with sophisticated hues
Infuse your home with personality and style by exploring impactful colour combinations. Opt for a sophisticated palette with colours such as Dulux Gouland Downs and Ponsonby.
Embrace the opportunity to showcase your unique taste and creativity, using colours to highlight spaces, create focal points, or even establish a cohesive theme throughout your home.
