Led by the Dulux Colour Team, including Colour Specialist Davina Harper, the annual Dulux Colour Forecast is grounded in extensive, year-round research into global and local trends influencing the way we live, work and design.
Curated into three palettes – PLAY, SENSORY and TREASURE – this year's forecast is inspired by the joy found in life's unexpected moments, a universal desire for comfort, and meaningful storytelling.
DULUX PLAY is a joyful, human-led palette inspired by analogue connection, shared experiences and the charm of imperfection. PLAY is a vibrant and uplifting palette of gentle pastels, vibrant accents and layered blues, brought together through unexpected colour combinations that celebrate creativity, spontaneity and the joy of being human.
DULUX SENSORY is a tribute to mindful living. The reassurance of everyday rituals is reflected through quiet structure, sensory richness and a deeply considered palette that fosters restoration and ease. Featuring botanical greens, muted blues, warm wheat and earthy neutrals, SENSORY is a grounding palette designed to bring balance, comfort and calm to the spaces we inhabit.
DULUX TREASURE is a celebration of rich storytelling and collected beauty. Featuring jewel-like berry tones, radiant golds, vibrant coral pink, striking teal and deep blue, TREASURE is a rich and expressive palette designed to bring depth, drama and a sense of timeless luxury to interiors. Spaces are layered with character, honouring the stories, objects and experiences that make a home uniquely personal.
While each palette offers a distinct perspective, together they explore a universal desire for comfort, meaningful spaces and a deeper appreciation of life's simple pleasures.
