Comfort colours

Resene consultant Rebecca Long previews the smoky, sunset colours of 2020, perfect for your home sanctuary.

Spicy terracottas, enduring blues, soothing neutrals and ornate golds are some of the glorious hues in Resene’s The Range Fashion Colours 2020. Colours are becoming smokier and we’re seeing a continued rise in sunset hues.

Resene Cleopatra Rich, ornate, timeless and regal, the gold of Resene Cleopatra will provide a warm, inviting backdrop on the dullest days. Full of personality, it celebrates our continued desire to express our individuality. Resene Cleopatra is the perfect vibrant hue to inject into a custom geometric mural, half-and-half wall or even your front door.

Resene Fast Forward With an increase in fast-paced lifestyles, we’re seeking further comfort from our homes. Brooding, deep-sea blues such as Resene Fast Forward allow us to feel grounded and are perfect hues to build a timeless sanctuary. Resene Fast Forward is supremely versatile and always delivers a contemporary look.

Resene Sunbaked A timeless, weathered terracotta that embraces the heat of summer. Its spicy, rust hue pairs beautifully with the popular greenery trend and adds warmth and class. Up-cycle mismatched furniture with Resene Sunbaked and introduce plush, comfortable fabrics for the ultimate summer reading nook.

Resene Sea Fog This versatile white with a hint of grey is best used with the smoky, muted tones of today. Rebelling against bright whites, it gives a fresh approach without appearing too stark. Resene Sea Fog helps create a restorative space that soothes the senses and the mind.

Resene Just Dance and Resene Smoulder Resene Just Dance was a popular choice in 2019 and that will continue into 2020. Its gentle blend of mango and apricot pairs effortlessly with the warmer, sun-kissed neutrals of the season. Contrast with deep, sophisticated ruby reds such as Resene Smoulder for a decadent approach.
