The Dulux Colour Forecast 2017
The 2017 Dulux Colour Trends ‘Antidote: A Colour Cure’ comprise of four carefully curated themes: Sentience, Chroma, Entwine and Construct. Let's visually explore what colour trends we'll be seeing in 2017.
Sentience
The colour inspiration for Sentience is getting back to nature in a technology filled world. Our need for the tactile in a life filled with laptops and Iphones brings this raw & earthy theme to life bringing peace back to the home with raw, earthly, soothing colours.

Chroma is an exciting and striking palette that takes inspiration from the Memphis and Bauhaus movements. Peach, melon, yellow, teal and blue form graphic elements combined with optical illusions, layered materials and reflections.
Appreciation for diversity is an important part of how we now live. This interior style is eclectic and combines many references to varying global cultures with modern pieces featuring weave and rich colour, inspired by landscapes from South America to the middle east.
Rich colours such as red, burgundy, brown and oranges are brought together with the zest of bright yellow and blue to form unexpected combinations and diversify the look of a modern interior.
Construct is inspired by architectural angles and the use of industrial materials such as concrete, steel and galvanised finishes. These elements combine with subtle, more tonal colour palettes that can create the illusion of depth and accentuate interior details.
An atmospheric palette of blues and greys, warmth is found through metallic accents in platinum, copper and rust.
Whatever theme resonates with you, the 2017 Dulux Colour Forecast brings stunning inspiration for our homes. For the complete forecast including colour references, take a look at the Dulux e-mag.
