Did you know that this week is National Colour Week?

In honour of the weeklong celebration of National Colour Week, Dailyfix caught up with Ann Roselt, colour marketing manager (dream job alert!) at Plascon to talk colour trends for the year ahead.

Tailor Made
Delighting in the everyday, Tailor Made explores a quiet luxury where simple design is valued for its honest approach. Familiar objects and everyday materials are renewed using this new palette. Driving the story are the warm neutrals, with deep colours to create intimate spaces and great backdrops for furniture.

Urban Glow
Urban Glow explores an ethereal world within an urban scene, inspired by the first light of dawn over a cityscape.  A beautiful combination of a pastel coloured sky to more graphic accents of the industrial landscape.

Natural Balance
Exploring the cycle of life in the natural world, the first signs of new growth, ageing, and decaying. Natural Balance explores the importance of bringing nature into our homes, as well as other living and working spaces. People feel happier, more relaxed and are more productive when they are in close contact with nature.

Vivid Expression
Vivid Expression is a celebration of bright colours uniting in one story and reflecting a world where seasonality no longer applies. These bright tropical hues challenge our preconceptions with clashing colour combinations and artistic paint effects.

COLOUR TIP To introduce colour to your décor scheme, ask: ‘What are the colours I love to be surrounded by; what atmosphere do I want to create in the room; is the room cool or warm; is it a small or big room and is it a light or dark room?’
