This palette was inspired by a need to find a somewhere for clarity and contemplation – a place to think. This is a smooth, polished and refined look but with a relaxed edge. It’s about achieving a balance between boutique hotel chic and real house warmth.
A peaceful bedroom
In the bedroom above, an elegant mix of warm neutrals, with the rich tones of Crème Brulee™ at its heart, sets up a mood of calm and contemporary comfort. Mid-century modern furniture and brass and copper detailing give an edge that is contrasted with tactile velvets and soft knitted fabrics.
Which colours?
Laid-back luxury in the living room
In this sophisticated living room, Crème Brulee™, Coral & Dulux Colour of the Year 2019, makes a strong statement with its almost glowing amber tones, emphasized by the complementary warm neutrals that are used around the windows and to create a border next to the pale grey ceiling. Warm tan leather and graphic art and objects add to this striking look.
Which colours?
A refined yet comforting child’s room
This bedroom – perfect for an older child – creates a relaxed atmosphere that’s equally suitable for study or calm contemplation. Rich burgundy sits beautifully with warm neutral accents including Crème Brulee™, Coral & Dulux Colour of the Year 2019, while a graphic circle shape painted on the wall makes a cool talking point. Woods, leathers and knits bring a tactile feel to the room.
Which colours?
A simply sophisticated kitchen
This kitchen creates subtle drama which lies in the contrast between its offbeat shades. From the intense charcoal-blue of the cabinets, to the neutral-pink of the walls and the versatile Crème Brulee™ that here takes on a golden tone in the slender stripe near the ceiling. Graphic artwork and copper accessories complete this quirky but refined room.
