Colour picking for your home redecoration – there’s an app for that from Dulux

Dulux Colour app for iPhone

Having just redecorated at home and spent many days debating the simple choice of which “black” and “white” paints to choose – I pity anyone actually trying to choose an actual colour scheme and working out what it might look like.  Dulux have launched a new app to help you along your decorating way.

The Dulux Colour app is quite simple.  Capture or browse your colour then visualise it.

Capturing the colour is the best bit – imagine walking into a display home and seeing a feature wall that you love the colour of.  Open the app, Capture and your camera viewfinder is now covered in dots which pick the colour and then you can view the Dulux name for that colour.

Visualising that colour then gets cool – Dulux have a huge range of exterior and interior photos in a huge range of homes which you then simply click on and that colour you’ve chosen is shown in that photo.

It’s very cool!

If you’re paint and colour shopping right now – grab the app and give it a go!
