Each year, Dulux unveils a colour that reflects the mood of the moment and inspires the way we decorate our homes. For 2027, that colour is Soulful Sage™, a soft, radiant green chosen to bring a sense of lightness, balance and optimism into everyday living.
Named the Dulux Colour of the Year 2027, Soulful Sage™ is a warm, uplifting shade designed to help create calming, restorative interiors. As more people look to their homes as a place to unwind and recharge, green continues to be a popular choice thanks to its natural, grounding qualities. Dulux describes Soulful Sage™ as a colour that can make both you and your home feel brighter, offering a fresh and positive outlook for the year ahead.
The growing influence of biophilic design continues to shape interior trends, with homeowners embracing colours that reflect the natural world. Soulful Sage™ captures this perfectly, combining the soothing qualities of green with a soft, contemporary feel. Whether used throughout a room or as an accent colour, it brings a sense of calm and connection to nature.
One of the most appealing features of Soulful Sage™ is its versatility. Create a serene, monochromatic scheme by pairing it with complementary greens, or combine it with warm neutrals and natural textures for a relaxed, modern look. The shade works beautifully across living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and dining spaces, making it an easy choice for a full-home refresh.
To showcase the versatility of Soulful Sage™, Dulux has paired its Colour of the Year 2027 with a collection of complementary palettes designed to suit a range of interior styles. From soft, glowing neutrals that create light and airy living spaces, to deeper natural greens that bring depth and tranquillity, these colour combinations make it easy to tailor the shade to your home. Whether you’re drawn to calming Scandi-inspired interiors, minimalist Japandi aesthetics or a more cocooning, nature-led scheme, Soulful Sage™ provides the perfect foundation for a fresh and uplifting look.
Green has long been associated with balance, wellbeing and our connection to the natural world, making it an increasingly popular choice for modern interiors. Research into biophilic design has highlighted the positive impact that nature-inspired spaces can have on mood and overall wellbeing, and green sits at the heart of this trend. With its soft, uplifting tone, Soulful Sage™ captures these qualities beautifully, helping to create rooms that feel calm, restorative and welcoming. Whether used in a busy family kitchen, a relaxing bedroom or a peaceful living room, this gentle green brings a sense of harmony that encourages you to slow down, unwind and enjoy your surroundings.
