Palette 3 – A home for Meaning
Grey is here to stay for 2020 and is very much on-trend. Try contrasting lights and darks to create depth in small rooms or use them as rich accent colours. Grey living rooms are becoming more popular too.

2020 trends to incorporate into this look:
- Embracing busy patterns is a lot easier with neutral tones and using one print pattern for walls and furnishings is going to be a decadent look for this year and effortlessly chic. Alternatively, a geometric wallpaper in grey would make a subtle statement
- Rounded furniture with European-inspired details will easily blend with a neutral theme

Palette 4 – A Home for Creativity
Deep, forest-like colours will leave your spaces looking sophiscated and luxurious. Use these colours to create richness. They’re especially striking in bedroom decor and hallways.

2020 trends to incorporate into this look:
- Think like a boutique-hotel and play with sumptuous velvets, metallic accents such as brushed brass and tasselled accessories. The bedroom is the perfect place for these jewel tones
- Art deco is the perfect theme to use these colours with, so scalloped patterns and mirrored surfaces will really create a statement in your home

The Winning Colour – Dulux’s Colour of the Year 2020
The winning colour of the year is:
Tranquil Dawn
“Inspired by the morning sky, it helps to give homes the human touch.”
The versatility of this colour and the soft classic shade is certainly why this is the colour to have in 2020. It would go in any room and brings us back to nature, soft skies and the need for green spaces.
2020 Trends to incorporate into this look:
- Use vintage touches within your home and furnishings to add softness to living spaces
- Linens and plants work well with this delicate shade. Bring nature inside by using real plants rather than last year’s fake plant trend
The perfect Turtle Mat to pair with this trend:
Our Morris & Co. Thistle Green, indoor door mat, is the ideal match to compliment it.
