For 2021, instead of selecting a colour that’s cheerful and positive (as so many assumed it would to rouse one and all and to act as a beacon, a sign that better times are to come), Dulux has kept things hushed and very much neutral. Reassuring, says Dulux; melancholic and brown, say the critics.
Brave Ground is a warm neutral. It’s a variation of brown, with grey in its undertones but also a hint of red, which is what helps it to toe the line between a modern shade and a more traditional one so that it may be at ease in a plethora of home contexts.
Reassuring, balancing and bolstering is what Dulux promises Brave Ground will offer a room, as well as a sense of tranquility amidst turbulence and versatility amongst other shades, creating a palette that is about ease and elegance.
