2014 Dulux Colour Awards finalists announced

After reviewing 197 entries from the who’s who in the Australasian design community, judges for the 2014 Dulux Colour Awards have selected 76 finalists.
Now in its 28th year, the awards recognise the imaginative use of colour by architects and interior designers to redefine the spaces they have created and reward their inspirational thinking across nine categories, with the best of the category winners going on to be awarded the Grand Prix prize.
Much like other years, the Commercial Interior category was the most popular this year, with 20 finalists selected.
Dulux Colour Planning and Communication Manager Andrea Lucena-Orr said 2014 was another inspirational year with submissions reflecting key commercial and residential trends. “Volumes of bright yellow, orange, blue and green dominated the Commercial Interior entries. Submissions strongly referenced the 80s with a fantastic mix of bold, clashing colours and geometric shapes, with entrants experimenting with use of colour for ceilings and door frames,” said Andrea.
“The use of block colour was prominent in both the Single Residential Exterior and Single Residential Interior categories. For the Single Residential Interior category red, green and grey were popular colours. Single Residential Exterior entries used colour as a strong focal feature,” she added.
Winners will be announced at a gala event in Melbourne on Thursday 27 March, 2014.
