The year 2020 will mark the beginning of a new decade, a new dawn. In an increasingly hectic world, there is a desire for meaning and kindness. So, inspired by the colors of the morning sky, Dulux color experts have created an inspiring new shade, Tranquil Dawn.
This versatile color seems to change according to the tones that it’s used with – it can work in different ways in a warm, neutral, soft or bright palette. This new shade sits somewhere between green, blue and grey – the beauty of a morning sky.
The versatile Tranquil Dawn seems to subtly shift its tone depending on the shades that it is combined with. When used with a sandy tone, it creates a relaxed and nurturing space for focusing on wellbeing and positive interactions. Comforting fabrics, cushions and throws, warm woods and mood-boosting indoor plants complete this light and airy look.

How to use it

This kitchen features a cool, confident look where black cabinets, contrasting white tabletops and a vibrant yellow wall stand out against a calmer strip of Tranquil Dawn. In this mix, the Color of the Year takes on an pastel effect, bringing a greater depth to the look. The mood is upbeat and sunny.


This bedroom is the perfect antidote to hectic modern living, as the everyday hustle has been pared back to the beautifully simple essentials. Walls are painted in Tranquil Dawn, which takes on a minimalist interior design effect when combined with a wall and ceiling painted in the same tone, acting as a frame and canopy to the bed. A room for rest and renewal.

In this warm and creative living room, rich and saturated green colours, including leaf green and teal, combine to create an intense mood. Tranquil Dawn takes on a calming role in this palette, providing a pale contrast shade that brings balance to the look. This room offers a way to reconnect with the past but in an up-to-date setting, creating a cosy and inspiring atmosphere.
