As the leading global colour authority, AkzoNobel is committed in making the world a more colourful place to live. To that extent, Dulux – AkzoNobel’s leading decorative paint brand – has been identifying a Colour of the Year (COTY) for the past 16 years to showcase the correlation between colour’s and one’s everyday life. This year, Dulux’s Colour of the Year is Spiced Honey.
Its warm amber tones, Spiced Honey (also known as Crème Brulee OOYY 26/220) is best described as versatile, sophisticated and timeless. Depending on the palettes the colour is complemented with, Spiced Honey can induce a sense of calmness, cosiness and burst of energy, and so on will give one’s household a spruce of life this Chinese New Year.
Master Kenny Hoo, founder of Good Feng Shui, explained that Feng Shui offers a variety of easy and practical tips to improve life. One such way is to use the right colours in a home – by painting a certain wall with a certain colour, good fortune can amplified while harmful elements can be negated.
Spiced Honey can be complemented with four different colour palettes, each with its own name. ‘A Space To think’ adds sophistication to a room; ‘A Space To Dream’ adds warmth and encourages rest and reflection; ‘A Space To Love’ can be used to make everyone feel at home and ‘A Space To Act’ adds energy to boost productivity.
