14 The collection includes colours
inspired by the most notable interior styles; from the elegant light-enhancing shades designed for grand Georgian homes, to the rich, saturated hues favoured during the Victorian era, and the fresh, garden-inspired colours of the Edwardian age.
While these heritage hues can be used to nod back to times gone by, the range also lends itself perfectly to contemporary styles The versatile Dulux Heritage collection provides the perfect palette to suit any design vision.
CREATING COHERENT COLOUR SCHEMES The key to creating stand out interiors is embracing individuality and adding a touch of emotion and personality to the space. This will help you to achieve designs that are both unique and cohesive.
When planning a colour scheme, it can be useful to take inspiration from other elements. For example, period features, hardwood fl oors or cherished furnishings can be used to identify complementary colours. To put this into practice, mahogany
fl oorboards may stand out more with lighter colours like Copenhagen Blue or Silver Fern on the walls, while a natural stone fi replace could pair beautifully with bolder hues DH Grass Green or
GETTING THE RIGHT BALANCE To achieve a balanced colour scheme, follow the 60/30/10 rule: 60% of your space should be the primary colour, 30% a complementary secondary colour, and 10% an accent colour. Whilst this approach can be used in each room, it could also be the inspiration for the whole home. You could use the same wall and trim colours to connect communal spaces like hallways and landings.
TOOLS FOR CREATING BEAUTIFUL DESIGNS To assist with colour selection, Dulux Heritage offers an online Colour Wall and a free printed Colour Card that allow you to browse curated palettes and identify complementary shades. You can explore by tonal matches (pale, mid, deep, white) or colour groups (either by colour, cool neutral or warm neutral). To make things even easier, the Dulux Heritage Colour Wall and Colour Card have been organised so that the tones in each column and row complement each other. With everything carefully arranged by Dulux Heritage experts, you can let your imagination run wild and be confi dent that the shades you choose will work harmoniously. By blending modern technology
with premium ingredients and stunning colour choices, Dulux Heritage strikes the perfect balance between resilient performance and timeless beauty. If you are seeking seamless application and a luxury and sophisticated fi nish, the ulux eritage range is the perfect choice.

It is also important to think about the use of the space, to help identify colours that will evoke the desired emotional response. For example, soft and soothing hues such as muted blues, greens, and warm neutrals are particularly effective in bedrooms and bathrooms as they can help to promote relaxation and bring a sense of comfort and wellbeing.
