Wattyl Colour Forecast 2012: Modern Sophisticate


Wattyl's "Modern Sophisticate" palette is not quite a neutral palette, but it's neutral enough to use in the most conservative setting.

It's also colourful enough to make a statement. The soft blue of Gracieux paired with Dark Amethyst is offbeat enough to catch the eye, and to refresh it. The greyed biscuit tones will come off as neutral in an office, but they'll still add a fresh, contemporary feel.

We like these colours all together in a single home or office building, drawing the eye on from one room to the next. They also look well together in a single room, picking out the architectural details in a way that could seem aggressive with bolder, less harmonious colours.
