Fool-proof palettes for home

To eliminate colour guesswork, Dulux has expertly curated three on-trend and fool-proof exterior colour schemes which can be easily applied to virtually any architectural style.

Transforming the outside of your home with the right colour scheme and paint finish will future-proof your exterior and achieve curb appeal for years to come.

Comprising Bright Spot, Botanical Life and Natural Beauty, these exterior palettes feature a selection of hues that can be mixed and matched with confidence to create a perfect and timeless colour scheme.

Updating the exterior of the home with the right colour scheme not only makes a strong first impression and reflects a homeowner’s personality, but also has the ability to increase street appeal and add value.

Comprising pops of brighter hues and a selection of easy-to-use neutrals, Bright Spot is especially ideal for popular mid-century architecture according to Bree Leech, creative consultant and stylist for Dulux.

“Experiment with hues to achieve a modern take on architectural colour palettes. Use bold hints of colour such as Dulux High Blue or Go Alpha in architectural details such as the front door, pot plants and even letterboxes,” Bree said.

Offering a more traditional colour scheme, Botanical Life achieves a warm and welcoming lush look which is globally inspired with spicy colour accents, bohemian styling and tropical flare such as Dulux Cinnamon Sand, Coyote and Jungle Cloak.

“Outdoor living has become an Australian way of life and botanical features play a greater role in our wellbeing as well as our décor,” Bree said.

She said Natural Beauty is inspired by tactile elements to offer colours which are drawn from nature and focus on neutrals, warm greys and charcoals.

“The Natural Beauty colour scheme achieves a look which is relaxed with colours such as Dulux Vintage Beige, Malay Grey and Domino which can be paired perfectly with materials such as brick, timber and stone.”

Achieving the right look and selecting colours can be daunting; these Dulux Weathershield exterior colour schemes simplify the painting process allowing homeowners achieve the perfect exterior look without fear of making a costly colour mistake.

To create a long lasting finish, these colour schemes can be applied with Dulux Weathershield which protects the home with a tough, flexible finish for long life protection from all Australian weather conditions.
