Dulux Colour of the Year

As November draws to a close, it’s the perfect time to start thinking about styling your home for Winter. It’s always a good idea to reset for the new season, so you can get your home ready for the months to come. What better starting point than the colour of the year!

 

Dulux announced that the colour of 2025 will be True Joy. True Joy is a gorgeous yellow tone, it truly does live up to its lovely name. True Joy is the colour of sunshine. As the sun fades outside, why not bring it back into your home with the colour of the year!

Yellow is quite an intimidating colour for many people, due to how bold it is. If you want to introduce some yellow into your home but aren’t quite sure where to begin, start with room accents. Something as small as a Scatter Cushion, can really add a pop of life to your room. Our Scatter Cushion in Monet Gold is the perfect place to start. Or, accessorise with a vase, this one from Anthropologie is a very similar colour to True Joy and would be a sophisticated and delicate pop of colour for any room.  You could also add a throw to your living area. Functional for Winter and also cosy! This one by Dunelm is the perfect True Joy yellow.

You could go even bolder, with a true joy inspired, statement Sofa! At G Plan we have some beautiful and unique fabrics that match True Joy brilliantly. Our Stamford Sofa, radiates mid-century cool and comfort and looks perfect in our Chenille Yarn Fabric Liso Tang. Or, consider our vintage charmer Martha, in our soft surfaced Calor Cardomen Fabric.

Once you have added your True Joy inspiration to your living area, it’s time to think about styling. One of our favourite yellow pairings is yellow and deep blue. Rich blue hues pair perfectly with bright, warm True Joy. One of the easiest ways to pull off this pairing, is through accessories. Consider adding a blue Scatter Cushion to your Stamford in Liso Tang. Our Scatter in Plush Indigo, makes for the ultimate colour combination. Add even more colour and texture to your room with this plant pot from Hortology, to bring some aquatic serenity to your space.

Yellow also pairs excellently with deep, earthy greens. Greens bring back a sense of calm to a bright and busy yellow themed room. One of the easiest ways to incorporate green in your space, is using plants. Plants are not only great additions to your home due to their air filtering qualities, but they also look amazing. This Swiss Cheese plant from Patch is the perfect addition to any room with a yellow theme. You might also consider adding some deep green Scatter Cushions. Our Scatter Cushion in Plush Vine is the perfect deep green to compliment sunny yellow tones.

 

So there you have it, our styling tips for True Joy. Dulux’s colour of the year. The perfect shade to bring some sun into your home this Winter!
