Australia’s favourite colours

The Dulux Colour Awards announced this week applauded the use of bright colours and patterns across all categories, but what colour do most Australians choose when painting their homes?

According to the Dulux website, our favourite colours are in fact, all shades of white – ‘Antique White USA’ is still number one favourite, followed by ‘Natural White’ and ‘Hog Bristle’.

In fact, in their remarks on the winning entry in the Single Residential Interior category (Queen St Residence by Edwards Moore Projects), the judges commented on the “injection of personality into the residence by … the use of bright yellow trims, which wash the white walls with colour”.
