Dulux have just announced their colour of the year for 2020 – Tranquil Dawn.

Each year, Dulux assembles a team of design experts to discuss global trends and distill these insights into a single colour which reflects the zeitgeist.  For 2020, they have come up with a peaceful shade of green that sits between green, blue and grey.

Inspired by the colours of the morning sky and designed as an antidote to the hectic digital age we live in, Tranquil Dawn is a versatile shade which can be used to help create a oasis of calm.
