Marianne Shillingford, Creative Director at Dulux, says: \u201cWhat is so wonderful about\u00a0Sweet Embrace\u2122\u00a0is its soothing subtlety. While being a beautiful standalone colour, it\u2019s a hue that matches perfectly with so many other shades so\u00a0you\u00a0can use it as a backdrop to build a totally individual space upon. A shade as versatile as\u00a0Sweet Embrace\u2122\u00a0encourages us to get creative and fashion spaces that allow occupants to feel completely at home.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhile being a beautiful standalone colour, it’s a hue that perfectly combines with so many other shades making it a cheerleader in colour form,\u201d adds Marianne. \u201cIt’s the perfect modern neutral that you can use with confidence, knowing it will unite each element from furnishings to artwork whilst creating a gently uplifting atmosphere.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Truly versatile,\u00a0Sweet Embrace\u2122\u00a0\u00a0is a\u00a0warm and delicate hue\u00a0that\u00a0adds sweetness to a decorative scheme without being saccharine.\u00a0It’s also a metameric colour, meaning it changes tone with the light \u2013 in morning light it appears crisp, becoming a more blush pink during bright daylight and more violet in the evening. Subtle and sophisticated, it\u00a0brings\u00a0warmth to north-facing spaces and softness to sunlit rooms.
