Dulux has captured this sentiment in their colour forecast for 2022.
Next year’s colour trends reveal a restorative palette of muted, soft hues to sooth and balance the mind. Sensual, moody tones promote liberation whilst serene and feminine pastels invigorate and inspire us towards a year of new possibilities.
