Want to create a stunning colour scheme but don't know where to start? Be inspired by our beautiful interior schemes.
Welcome to the Dulux Magazine - the one stop shop for all your interior design and colour interests.
Whether you are looking for ideas for creating a colour scheme, want to know which are the hottest interiors shades for the season or are looking for help with common interior dilemmas, we have it all. What's more, with interviews with an array of Dulux Colour experts and Irish interior designers, it couldn't be easier to stay up to date with what's hot in the world of Irish interiors.
Speaking to a family friend, I was recently reminded of the power of colour paint, and I wanted to share her story.
We at Dulux recently launched Colour Futures 2012 - a publication which forecasts major trends in colour and interiors for the coming year.
If you want to stay on trend in 2012 and fall in love with your home all over again, then embrace the trend for nostalgic interiors.
Do you need a little pick me up in the post-Christmas 'slump', that many of us feel at this time of year?
Do you ever flick through interiors magazines and look longingly at the beautiful dressers, chairs and bedside tables?
When moving into a new home, the first item to cross off the 'to do' list is often 'paint'. Whether you want to blitz the magnolia and add a splash of colour or cover up the former occupants' lime green feature walls, putting a personal touch on your new home with a fresh coat of paint is a must for most of us.
A great tip for a stylish home is painting doors in your home in a favourite shade. The Dulux easycare satinwood range has 25 stylish shades which are ideal for injecting a touch of colour to any room in your home.
I know this may sound terribly dull, but the colour grey is an interior designer's dream and I have to admit, I am convinced that grey is the new cream. Unfortunately, many people consider grey to be dull, drab and cold but let me convince you otherwise.
In a world of mass produced goods, it can seem impossible to find something truly unique. From the High Street dress that half of your circle of friends own, to the Swedish-style sofa that seems to be in every living room you enter, there seem to be mass-produced, identical goods at every turn.
What makes a stylish person truly stylish? Often it's their ability to add their own personal twist to a trend. Whether it's the flea-market hat teamed with the high street biker jacket, or the 50s-style fringe teamed with a classic white shirt and jeans combination, it's the quirky and thoroughly personal takes on an established trend which distinguishes the style gurus from the followers of fashion.
