Discover how you can predict the hottest colours in design in 2023 with Dulux Academy Lead, Creative Consultant and interior designer Cora Collins.

The use of colour has always been an essential piece of any successful brand strategy or design product because it goes far beyond mere aesthetics. The right colour choice impacts customers’ experience, sales and profits. While the general rules of colour usage in design are easy to remember, current and future trends can be harder to predict. 

During the workshop, Cora Collins will give you insights into the process of colour trends and forecasting to market to new and existing clients and identify the colour trends of 2023 which will further allow you to successfully advise, please and attract your customers.

This 60-minute online workshop is ideal for any design professional interested in the use of colour in branding, design, interior design and built environment and anyone who works with colour in their daily roles.

It will cover:

  • Colour through time snapshot

users in 2023, creating comfortable, inviting spaces, inspiring designs and boosting value in every sector.
