PUT YOUR STAMP ON NEUTRALS

-

With inspiratio­n from four Dulux premium collection­s that will ignite your imaginatio­n, creating the ultimate look in

your home is possible; we show you how...

Inviting collection

Layer warm feminine neutrals with period-inspired furniture to create a soft and elegant interior. The clever use of neutral colour-blocking on walls offers an effective solution for breaking up and reshaping large volumes of walls, thus creating an intimate and inviting interior.

Neutrals are easy to work with as they complement any colour scheme. But the secret to creating the perfect neutral space is to incorporat­e a splash of colour for a unique personal statement. It’s simple: select your neutral base from one of the four Dulux premium colour collection­s then introduce your favourite customised colour from Dulux tinted colours (T). Follow these guidelines from Sonica Bucksteg of Dulux to put it all together:

Minimalist collection

The layering of cool neutrals such as Dove Grey or Rich Praline 3 (T) with Brilliant White creates designs that evoke a sense of tranquilli­ty, whispers of elegance and a new understate­d luxury. Here, the layering of soft natural fabrics such as linen, cashmere and wool adds extra opulence.

What type of paint where?

Give interiors a timeless touch of elegance with Dulux Luxurious Silk™, an exquisite interior wall coating with a smooth mid sheen finish. Add that finishing touch with Dulux Rich Matt with its ultra matt finish or reinvent trims, doors and more with the contempora­ry mid sheen smoothness of Dulux Pearlglo™ Waterbased. Look no further than the Dulux premium range of decorative wall paints for unlimited colour and the ultimate promise in quality with the Dulux 10-year guarantee. Showcase your style – make a statement with Dulux.

Bold collection

The neutrals in the Dulux range are versatile and work well with almost any other colour. Here, Ostrich Egg becomes the perfect canvas and balancing factor, allowing the bold indigo wall in Plush Velvet 3 (T) and red chairs to take centre stage. For a cooler effect, replace Ostrich Egg with Dusted Moss 2 (T).

Opulent collection

Harmonious shades in warm muted orange and blush are perfectly combined with the soft warmth of Almond White to exude a sense of femininity. Add further luxury and couture chic with hints of metallics and plush fabrics in delicate patterns.

 ??  ?? Neutrals and your mood Neutrals can be warm, cool or somewhere in-between. Cool neutrals create calm, understate­d yet elegant interiors, whereas warm neutrals are inviting and romantic.
