Tap into your inner artist with
a fabulous wall mural. ‘Take your
inspiration from a favourite
design in the room – it could
be a print, ornament or cushion
- and use the colour picking tool
in the free Dulux Visualizer app,
which lets you see colours on
the wall and explore shades in
your motif,’ says Dulux creative
director Marianne Shillingford.
‘For a striking geometric design,
all you need is masking tape
and a small foam roller.’
PROJECT DETAILS A focal point in
fashion designer Alice Temperley’s
house, this large-scale floral motif
not only adds a burst of colour
and pattern but also leads the eye
upwards, drawing attention to the
room’s impressive double height.
