How To Brighten Your Home With Soulful Sage™

Dulux colour experts have over 30 years of experience in selecting colours that match the mood of the moment and curating on-trend colour combinations that work in the home. To make things easy, we’ve built three distinctive colour stories around Colour of the Year 2027, Soulful Sage™ – each helping you lighten your life in a different way. We’re also offering an all-green palette. Elegant, simple and uplifting, this combination of greens can boost the mood of any room in your home. 

Soft and subtle, Soulful Sage™ is the perfect shade for a wraparound colour scheme because it makes a statement without overwhelming a space. Here, it’s been used to paint the walls, ceiling and woodwork to create a living room that feels cocooning and calming. 

Soulful Sage™ is a colour that changes beautifully with the light, so – even though you’re using just one shade – you’ll get an appealing play of darker and lighter tones throughout the day. A natural, greyed-off green, it also makes the perfect backdrop for natural furnishings and indoor plants for a simple, Scandinavian-style look.

As the hub of the home and the daily cooking space, the kitchen can often feel stressful and overheated. A green colour scheme can help to alleviate this, as it brings in the calming flavour of nature. 

Here, Soulful Sage™ has been used to bring colour to a neutral, natural scheme. Filling an architectural arch, it also helps define the washing and preparation space around the sink, and creates a striking backdrop for a shelf display. 

Dulux has a range of easy-to-clean products specially formulated for kitchen walls.

With many of us spending time working from home, the home office has become an essential in today’s living space. In smaller homes or apartments, it often doubles up with the dining or guest room, or gets squeezed into the corner of a living room. These multifunctional spaces need understated and versatile colour schemes – something our light-toned 2027 palettes are perfect for. Even better, green is said to aid concentration, so Dulux Colour of the Year Soulful Sage^TM is a natural choice for a workspace. 

Here, Soulful Sage™ has been used to create a split wall feature that defines the sitting area, while warm greys maximise the sunlight.

Warm, calming and ethereal, greens are perfect for a bedroom colour scheme, helping create a space that’s ideal for relaxing. For 2027, we’ve brought together a selection of different greens that work perfectly with our Colour of the Year 2027, Soulful Sage^TM. And, just because it’s an all-green scheme doesn’t mean it can’t be fun. By choosing contrasting colours and playing with painted shapes, you can create a look with bags of personality. 

Here, Soulful Sage™ creates a curvy, painted bedhead on an ochre-green wall, while a soft teal-green marks a bold entrance at the doorway.
