Using the Coral & Dulux Colour of the Year with vibrant shades

Create a harmonious, joyful space with Coral & Dulux Colour of the Year 2023

1 September 2022

Inspired by the natural buzz and biodiversity of meadows, prairies and wildflower fields, Buzz colours can bring a sense of vitality and joy to any room in your home.

Our Buzz palette takes inspiration from nature’s extraordinary ecosystems – think beautiful meadows that are home to grasses, wildflowers, butterflies and bees. Used in our homes, the vibrant colours in this palette create a rich, energetic space that feels playful and sparks joy.

Buzz shades are perfect for making bold statements and injecting personality into your home. Get creative with geometric shapes, create a dramatic contrast with split walls or highlight focal points in a room with clever colour-blocking.

Try these four joyful decorating ideas using the Coral & Dulux Colour of the Year, Wild Wonder™, and the Buzz palette.

Go graphic in the living room

Be bold in your living room by combining colours and playing with paint effects; the Buzz palette is all about the mix and match. Here, a circle painted in Wild Wonder™ adds a joyful, unexpected element against a soft pink wall, adding to the warm and glowing feel.

Create contrast in the bedroom

Vibrant but harmonious, Buzz colours are made to work together, so get creative with a split wall feature. Here, a section picked out in soft pink defines the bed area, while the rest of the room is painted in Colour of the Year 2023, Wild Wonder™. It’s a combination that makes for a fun, warm and welcoming space.

Add interest with colour-blocking

It’s easy to make a statement with a simple colour-block technique, and you can’t go wrong combining any of the tones from the Buzz palette with Wild Wonder™. In this workspace, the pastel pink staircase makes a subtle impact against walls and ceiling painted in the Colour of the Year. Co-ordinating furnishings and accessories in the same shade of pink add the perfect finishing touch.
