Dulux Colour Awards 2012 - Entry Open

Architects, designers, specifiers and students are invited to submit their entries to the 2012 Dulux Colour Awards.

Now in its 26th year, the Dulux Colour Awards celebrate the exceptional and inspired use of colour in architecture and interior design. Previous winners include projects from Carr Design, McBride Charles Ryan, HASSELL and the 2011 Grand Prix winner Elenberg Fraser.

"Colour is a fundamental piece in the design puzzle, and this year we're encouraging professionals and students to push the envelope even further and explore new avenues and expressions of colour," said Dulux Colour Planning and Communication Manager, Andrea Lucena-Orr.

The 2012 Dulux Colour Awards are expanding from 6 to 8 categories, with the previous Residential Interior and Exterior Awards divided into 4 new categories: Single Residential Interior, Multi Residential Interior, Single Residential Exterior and Multi Residential Exterior.

These will join the existing Commercial Exterior, Commercial Interior, Sustainable Interior and Student categories.

Each category winner will receive AU$1500 in prize money and a trophy. All entries will also go in the running for the Grand Prix award, receiving AU$2,000, a trophy and a trip to an international design fair.

Entries to the 2012 Dulux Colour Awards are open now until 10 February 2012. Finalists will be announced on 27 February 2012, with the winners announced at a gala event on 28 March 2012.
