Paul Tremain kids room with Simply Refresh Proud Peacock

My Colour Story: Dad uses Simply Refresh to transform his kids’ playroom in a flash

Meet Paul Tremain, dad turned decorator, thanks to the new Dulux Simply Refresh range.

Paul was keen to turn the upstairs of his home into a cool and creative playroom for the whole family to enjoy. “We really wanted to make the most of the large area and paint a vibrant, fun and colourful room for the kids”.

So, like many busy parents who are picking up their paint brushes at the moment, Paul had the clever idea of creating a feature wall.

It’s a simple, but super impactful way to add colour to a space. And with Simply Refresh Feature Wall, made from our thick and creamy one-coat formula, it’s never been easier or quicker to achieve the look you want first time.

Which Feature Wall colour did Paul pick for the playroom?

There are 15 gorgeous, eye-catching colours choose from within the Simply Refresh Feature Wall range. If you can’t settle on a shade, it might be a good idea to sample a few before you start painting, just like Paul did.

“We got a few tester pots and tried out four different shades, but landed on Proud Peacock”.

This modern green edges towards teal, which gives it a really lively feel and makes it a great choice for injecting some joy into a playroom. Plus, such a statement shade, provides the perfect backdrop for playful furnishings and the kids’ toys.

“The colour works so well. Everything just pops off it so brilliantly”

Would Paul pick Dulux Simply Refresh again?

Paul was reluctant to call in the professionals to get the job done, and now he doesn’t need to! He soon found out how fast and fun it is to create a feature wall with Simply Refresh – and all it takes is one coat of paint.

“What you really notice is how thick it is, it goes on really easy. It’s fast and good quality – exactly what you want as a busy parent!”
