In years gone by, colour trends were often loud and noticeable for example, pink and grey in the '80s and blue and yellow in the '90s. Such obvious colour statements are now a thing of the past, say the colour experts.Karen Warman, marketing manager for Resene, says the new Resene The Range fandeck reflects the change towards a more individualised approach to colour.

"Instead, they are creating more simple, comfortable interior spaces inspired by memories and everyday pleasures."Colours today are cleaner and less complicated. Palettes are tending towards more feminine hues, such as red and violet. Nature is still a strong influence, along with nostalgia, with greens, yellows and ochres featuring prominently. Intense blues are also in the spotlight." View of a living room which features wall paints from Resene.
