In this episode, we are discussing why neutral has come to signify elegance today, why is the world not a riot of colours it used to be, and why have Indians become afraid of colour in our homes. It is also the best time to have a conversation about colour because Asian Paints is announcing the Colour Of The Year and the decor trends for 2023 this month, as part of their annual initiative called ColourNext. We are talking to Manju Sara Rajan who is the editor-in-chief of Beautiful Homes India and Senior Advisor Design at Asian Paints ColourNext. First, she takes us through the purpose and significance of this initiative which is celebrating its 20 years. Then we also discuss simple ways of introducing bright colours into your home décor and the importance of the right lighting to balance these colours.
