Marianne Shillingford, the Creative Director of Dulux in the UK, said: \u201cRight now, people want to feel revitalised and enjoy the freedoms that are returning to them, to look out and bring in new ideas. What better inspiration can we take than the endless skies around us? It is widely known that nature makes us feel better and taking steps to bring the outside in enhances our sense of wellbeing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reflecting the limitless skies around us, Bright Skies is a colour that works with a host of other shades \u2013 from soft neutrals to joyful brights. It\u2019s a really adaptable colour which is perfect for small spaces, brightening up a living room alcove, or used on the ceiling. Dulux hope that decorating our homes with this colour will make us feel joyful, uplifted, optimistic and free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
