A Dulux Bedroom Makeover
With life busier and more complex than ever, design trends for autumn 2020 will reflect our desire to simplify and slow down. Calming, nature-inspired tones will dominate, with a focus on simplicity and authenticity.

The Grounded palette – one of four trend palettes identified in the 2020 Dulux Colour Forecast ‘Essence’ – combines gentle, earthy neutrals and warm whites with accents of soft coral and lavender to create a cosy, laid-back feel. And as the weather cools, it’s the perfect palette to add warmth and character to our homes.
“The Grounded palette is one that homeowners will love – it’s easy to work with and has a relaxed yet sophisticated feel,” says Andrea Lucena-Orr, Dulux Colour and Communications Manager.
To show you just how quickly and effectively colour can reinvigorate your home, stylist Bree Leech transformed a bland, all-white kid’s bedroom using the Dulux Grounded palette. “Colour is the greatest tool you can use in your home – with very
little effort or expense, you can completely change the look and feel of a space,” says Leech. “All you need is a few spare hours, a paintbrush and a couple of cans of paint – then it’s like stepping into a whole new room.
Colours used for this room makeover include Dulux Wash&Wear in ‘Pancake Mix’, ‘Natural White’ and ‘Hint of Lavender’. Dreamy right?
