Find the perfect blue to give your home a fresh look and a calming feel.
It’s all about blue this year, and we’re loving it! After the wild year 2025 was, 2026 brings calm, cool, cosy vibes with beautiful blues – and there is a shade for every room with these hero blue colours: Free Groove, Slow Swing and Mellow Flow.
- Living room: Create a switch-off space with flowing blues
The light, airy blue – Mellow Flow makes a perfect background colour for a living room. Calming without being cold, it brings an expansive, open feel for space transformation.
- Kitchen: Cool down with mood-enhancing blues
Fluid and harmonious, blues can work particularly well in a kitchen – often a hectic and overheated space. The vibrant Free Groove brings a dash of colour to the work area; while Slow Swing – the dark blue gives the room a solid framework.
- Bedroom: Layer blues for a serene oasis
Free Groove is a shade to get lost in. Intense and resonant, it can create the perfect dreamy flow in a bedroom, especially when paired with lighter and deeper blue. Be inspired by the colours of Vincent Van Gogh’s The Starry Night and slow the pace right down for the perfect night-time retreat.
- Home office: Boost concentration with blue
Blue has been shown to improve concentration, making it the ideal colour for a home office. Here a dark blue bookshelf in Dulux Slow Swing is set against a wall painted in Free Groove™ to create a space that’s made for quiet focus.
