All you need to know about the Dulux Colour of the Year 2019

Every year Dulux colour specialists from the Global Aesthetic Center get together with international design experts and architects to discuss the new global trends that will affect us all. We then work on transforming these insights into one key colour that will have an impact on homes all over the world. Around this we create four beautiful palettes with a mood and style to suit everyone.

Creme Brulee is the Dulux Colour of the Year for 2019. This warm amber shade has been chosen to reflect a new mood of positivity and optimism – a desire to ‘let the light in’.
