Combining Dulux Colour of the Year with warm natural colours
We’ve created four easy-to-use palettes to help you transform your home with Dulux Colour of the Year 2021, Brave Ground. Here are some ready-made colour combinations to inspire you to mix and match the natural tones of Trust colours.
A warm, natural neutral, Dulux Colour of the Year 2021 is the perfect tone to use in combination with other colours. Bolstering and balancing, it lets other shades shine, and harmonizes perfectly with our Trust palette of toning, earth colours from all over the world.
These complementary shades – soft browns, greys and neutrals – can help create a sense of unity in a room, and bring together the different elements of any interior scheme. Softening the hard lines of a contemporary space and adding a subtle modern touch to more traditional spaces, Trust colours can help create a warm and welcoming atmosphere in any room in your home.
Here are four easy and inspirational ideas for using Brave Ground with these earthy colours…
1. Create a harmonised bedroom with a mix of soft naturals
Trust colours work together naturally, so it’s easy to combine different tones to create a space that feels connected. Here, walls painted in soft brown have been topped with Dulux Colour of the Year, Brave Ground to make a smart and cosy bedroom. An arch, also painted in Brave Ground, adds a creative touch, and cleverly defines a zone for the dressing table. Find out how to master this paint technique by watching our How to paint an arch video.

2. Try two-tone colour for an inviting living room where people will want to come together and share ideas
Using a split-wall paint effect with Trust colours gives you the chance to play with interesting colour combinations, and also makes for a warm and welcoming space. Here, walls painted in Dulux Colour of Year, Brave Ground, have been given a low border in terracotta. Accentuating the height of the room, this scheme also creates a smart and subtle backdrop for an eclectic collection of mid-century furniture.

3. Work with natural tones to create a kitchen friends and family will want to gather in
A warm, natural shade, Brave Ground is a great choice for kitchen cabinets, as it looks good with a variety of other colours and materials. Here, it frames natural wood shelves and a collection of copper, glass and ceramic accessories to create a smart and tactile contemporary kitchen.

4. Create a space to spark ideas with toning Trust colours
The Trust palette gives you the freedom to mix and match colours, knowing that they’ll work together. Here, a play of geometric shapes, painted in Brave Ground and other warm, harmonizing tones, creates a graphic and visually stimulating study wall – somewhere that’s bound to get people talking.
