Create a harmonious, joyful space with Dulux Colour of the Year

Our Buzz palette takes inspiration from nature’s extraordinary ecosystems – think beautiful meadows that are home to grasses, wildflowers, butterflies and bees. Used in our homes, the vibrant colours in this palette create a rich, energetic space that feels playful and sparks joy. 

Buzz shades are perfect for making bold statements and injecting personality into your home. Get creative with geometric shapes, create a dramatic contrast with split walls or highlight focal points in a room with clever colour-blocking. 

Try these four joyful decorating ideas using Dulux Colour of the Year 2023 Wild Wonder^TM (50YY 49/191 Winter’s Silence), and the Buzz palette.
