Colour is all around us. From the
moment we wake up to the minute the day ends, we’re exposed to a variety of
different colours and the psychological properties associated with each shade.
With this in mind, it’s no surprise that we pay so much attention to colour
when making personal decisions, from choosing an outfit to re-painting our
bedroom walls.
Colour trends change year upon year, and 2019 will be no different. Here are
some of the trends predicted to rise in popularity in the New Year.
Natural colours
According to Dulux, 2019 is set
to see a rise in natural tones. These will be colours that we spot in natural
landscapes, such as forests and beaches, and will range from golden sandy hues,
clay browns, rich blues and verdant greens. In fact, Dulux’s 2019 colour of the year
is “Spiced
Honey”, which encapsulates the move back to nature perfectly. These colours
will increase in popularity as more and more people seek simplicity and serenity
amidst busy lifestyles and hectic schedules. In interior design, lighter shades
will be juxtaposed against starker colours to mirror the imperfect beauty of
natural landscapes.
Neutral shades
Neutral colours remain on-trend
every year and are often chosen for interior design purposes to create a
timeless and classic look. Greys, browns and creams are steady colours; they’re
tasteful, refined, and can be paired with livelier colours to provide the
perfect contrast. If you’re planning to re-decorate with neutral tones, think
ivory, taupe, mauve and stone.
High energy colours
Vibrant shades of orange, red,
yellow and pink are expected to explode in 2019 as more and more people hope to
make a statement. From the richest of reds to the warmest of oranges, these
colours are lively and empowering. High energy colours are often associated
with strength, confidence, fun and courage, making reds, yellows, oranges and
pinks the perfect choice for creative and free-spirited individuals.
