Transform your walls with Dulux Colour of the Year 2021, Brave Ground and one of our easy-to-use colour combinations. The blues, greens and greys of the Earth palette work naturally together and give any room a comforting connection to the world outside.


 

Brave Ground, Dulux Colour of the Year 2021, is a warm, natural neutral that creates a firm foundation for any interior scheme. Bolstering and balancing, it’s a colour that echoes the fabric of the earth – soil, clay, stone, making even an urban space feel rooted and part of the natural world.

Brave Ground is also a colour that lets other shades shine, and it works naturally with Earth colours of blue, grey and green. Used in combination, these tones create a calming, restorative feel that’s easy on the eye and that works in a modern or traditional setting.

Whether you choose to focus on one or two colors or get creative with an easy-to-achieve paint technique, this palette is perfect for giving any room a fresh new look. Here are four easy and inspiring ways to use it…
