Explore the versatility of Tranquil Dawn and discover the colour palette that’s right for your room


 

Every year, Dulux colour specialists work with design experts from all over the world to get a clear understanding of the upcoming global colour trends that will shape our lives in the near future. We use these insights to identify a new Colour of the Year and create a collection of complementary colours around it.

In an increasingly hectic and digital world, there is a desire to be more caring and a search for meaning. This year’s colour, Tranquil Dawn, has an air of calm and clarity that perfectly reflects this mood.

It’s a beautifully versatile shade with an effect that changes depending on the colour scheme it’s used with. We’ve created four stunning palettes around Tranquil Dawn, with a mood to suit everyone. Take a look at this guide to using Tranquil Dawn in your home and decide which colour palette reflects your style best.
