Home Office Colour Schemes using Dulux Colour of the Year 2024

12 September 2023

Our Colour of the Year, Sweet Embrace™ and easy-to-use palettes give you the flexibility to create any number of different schemes for a home office

With more of us working from home than ever before, creating a workspace we want to spend time in is top of the agenda. The Dulux Colour of the Year 2024, Sweet Embrace^TM, is the perfect home office paint. Why? Not only does it work beautifully on its own, adding warmth and softness to any workspace, but it also acts as a foundation colour for a host of other home office paint colours.

Around the new Dulux Colour of the Year, we’ve created three colour stories – Warm, Calm and Uplifting, so it’s easy for you to create a look that aids your concentration and sparks your creativity. Find out how you can change the mood of your workspace simply by choosing one of these home office colour schemes…

Soft and optimistic colour schemes for your home office

The best colour scheme for your home office might be just one stand-alone colour. Modern, delicate, and comforting, Sweet Embrace^TMcan bring a sense of softness to your home office all on its own. For a one-colour scheme, try taking the Dulux Colour of the Year up to the ceiling to accentuate that cosy, wraparound feel.
