Dulux Colour Of The Year - Spiced Honey

Dulux has announced its colour of the year for 2019 and it is the rich and gorgeous SPICED HONEY. This cosy caramel tone will compliment a wide variety of modern and traditional homes. The honey background hues of this colour choice work equally well with simple and neutral colour tones as well and bold and pastel toned colours to create a focal point within your chosen room.

For a simple and classic interior design then partner spiced honey with elegant cream and beige hues that will create a light and cosy feel that can be further accentuated with some cream and gold metallic wallpaper for a chic and luxurious finish. For a more traditional rustic interior partner spiced honey with heritage red and green tones and place a tartan or plaid wallpaper on a main feature wall for added highland inspired detail. If you love a pop of colour in your home interior, then spiced honey will look wonderful paired with a selection of dusky pastel colours such as blush, peach, blue and mint that look great with a bold floral wallpaper. More vintage style homes will look amazing with a spiced honey, orange and mustard colour palette that can be paired with bold geometric wallpapers for added detail.

Spiced honey makes a great colour choice for upholstery and fabrics as it provides a hint of colour that is elegant and subtle. Velvet curtains and cushions will look great in a spiced honey tone and can be teamed with gold embellishments, tassels and embroidery for an opulent period style interior design. You could also upholster a classic armchair or chaise lounge in a spiced honey coloured velvet fabric for added luxury within your home. Include some gold chandeliers, a cream shag pile rug and some gold vases and ornaments for an eye-catching interior finish. For a bold and funky retro finish then selected spiced honey brown and mustard cotton curtains and cushions in vintage patterns and place on a vintage style leather sofa to create a perfect balance of style and comfort. These can be teamed with retro lamps, rugs and ornaments to complete your look.

Cream painted furniture makes a great partner to a spiced honey interior colour palette and will look great in smaller or more compact rooms of the home. The light yet cosy exterior creates a perfect balance of illumination and warmth. For a traditional interior design then opt for classic oak furniture items that will complement the rich honey tones of the backdrop and create the perfect place to curl up and relax. If opulent and flamboyant interior design is more to your taste, then why not go for some gold leaf furniture in a French carved design that is sure to create maximum visual impact within the room, providing you with the ultimate in glamour and opulence.
