This quiet calming shade has been selected as the Dulux Colour of the Year 2020. Designed to reflect a move towards a slower pace of life, this colour is supposed to remind people of the grounding effects of nature. Paired with natural materials and textures in a space, it should create a soothing environment that will welcome you home from the hectic pace of the outside world.

This shade is bound to go down well — in a world that has gone plant crazy, where everyone wants to embrace rewilding and make their home feel like a little oasis, this shade fits the bill. From a design perspective, this shade should make a room feel bigger, and will work with dark and pale woods and a wide range of colours.
