Entries are now open for the 2025 Dulux Colour Awards. Architects, interior designers, specifiers and design students from Australia and New Zealand are invited to submit recent projects that demonstrate an exceptional use of colour across seven categories.
Projects must have been completed between 1 September 2023 and 31 December 2024 and cannot have been previously entered into the awards.
Prizes are awarded across categories of commercial interior for workplace and retail; commercial interior for public and hospitality venues; commercial and multi-residential exterior; residential interior; single residential exterior; temporary or installation design; and students.
A panel of industry experts will be judging the 2025 competition entrants based on the criteria of innovation, expression and execution of colour. This year’s panel includes Andrew Parr (SJB), Kim Bridgland (Edition Office), Rachel Luchetti (Luchetti Krelle), Kerstin Thompson (KTA), Alex McLeod (At.Space) and Andrea Lucena-Orr (Dulux).
Andrew Parr explains that the Dulux Colour Awards provide an exciting opportunity to witness and assess some of the most inspiring and innovative techniques being employed by the best of the best to push the boundaries of colour in architecture and design.
“The creative use of colour is such an integral aspect of design, particularly when a project has multiple constraints, and I’m eager to see how this year’s entrants have embraced it to enhance function and form across residential and commercial spaces,” adds Parr.
Finalists will have the opportunity to be judged for the coveted Australian Grand Prix and New Zealand Grand Prix titles. Entries are open until Friday 21 February 2025. Winners will be announced at a ceremony on Thursday 28 May 2025.
