Bright Skies Ahead

Ringing in Christmas and the New year with a dash of Bright Skies

“Out with the old and in with the new” is a reference that connects all Malaysians when it comes to 2021. For most of us, 2021 was a year of “waiting and seeing” as we reassess what really matters: family, friends, home and the world around us. However, good things come to those who wait and, in this situation, the only forward – is upward.

 

Yes, upward. The adage that once you hit rock bottom (we’re not saying you have) the only way is up – rings true. While most of us have not reached this point, we are collectively looking to move forward and upward, looking ahead to brighter skies and a more joyous new year.

Therefore, with Christmas and New Year upon us, what better way to get started than through some rigorous decorating to express ourselves and reinvent our personal spaces.

 

Yes, it is that time of the year where redecorating and rejuvenating the home takes precedence. Whether you're planning on a colour scheme full of red, green, and gold, or something a little more timeless, we have some suggestions on how to transform your living space into a room that will stand the test of time, inspired by AkzoNobel’s Colour of the Year 2022 – Bright SkiesTM and its complementary palettes.

Said to be the heart of the home, the living room is often where everyone spends most of their time. Be it with family and friends or a relaxing afternoon with a cup of coffee – the living room is the first space to set the mood and atmosphere as it is the central point of focus in your home during the holidays.

Festive

The muted red of AkzoNobel’s Santa Rosa (10YR 37/143) helps you make a statement for the holiday which sets the mood in a space where people tend to gather and interact with each other. With the festive season around the corner, additional décor piece such as a Christmas tree in the living room will definitely amplify the holiday mood.

Christmas doesn’t mean everything has to be red. Green is another prominent colour during the Christmas season. Signifying growth and renewal, green can be correlated with strengthening bonds which often times is formed in the living room. The Creme Brulee (00YY 26/220) and Pale Clover (30GY 41/173) ensures your living room remain timeless, perfect for every bonding session.

When it comes to decorating the dining room, bold colours is one way to go. The dining room is also a space where people interact and mingle over meals, which is why this room deserves equal attention as well. You can choose to go subtle with the colours and add a hint of festive touch or opt for a traditional red Christmas decor theme and go all out.
