In-store colour wall
If you’re unsure what you’re looking for, our in-store colour walls can be a great place to start. Carrying a selection of our most popular and most loved paint colours, colour walls can be found at your local Bunnings store as well as Dulux paint stockists.
Colour walls feature warm colours on the left with cool tones on the right, and the more vibrant hues at the top. If it's whites and neutrals you're looking for, you may find a separate panel showcasing our most popular white and neutral shades.
Colour chips
Our triple-colour chips feature monochromatic schemes designed to help you determine the right shade or create a cohesive palette for your space.
Chip 1 is an example of tonal variations of one colour, whereas chip 2 showcases the same colour in three different strengths. For each option, you might consider using the top or middle colour as a feature wall, and using the bottom as the primary wall colour or trim throughout the rest of the room you plan to paint.
