When you’re looking for inspiration, the past is often a good place to start. That’s why our Dulux brand has teamed up with 15th century UNESCO site, the Temple of Heaven in China, to launch its Oriental Aesthetic range of decorative paints. Designed to promote the importance of cultural preservation and heritage, the palette takes its inspiration from the Beijing temple’s iconic regal blue tiles. It also includes soft blues and greens, royal yellows and imperial red to help create a poetic and harmonious atmosphere ideal for contemporary homes. #AkzoNobel #PaintTheFuture #Dulux #UNESCO #UNESCOHeritageSite

An art student’s fantastical imagination has helped our “Let’s Colour” initiative go interstellar in Estonia. Angelina Paršina’s planet concept was selected from dozens of colorful design ideas to transform the basketball court at the Juuru SOS Children’s Village. More than 100 volunteers took part in the recent project, using 87 different colors supplied by our Sadolin brand. All five of the children’s rooms at the site were also redecorated with a series of murals. #AkzoNobel #LetsColour #AkzoNobelCares #Sadolin #SOSChildrenVillages #PassionForPaint #PaintTheFuture #Color #Estonia SOS Children's Villages International Photographer: Kaarel Kõvatu

Saddle up for an exceptional summer of sport! Situated close to our site in Montataire, we made sure Creil velodrome in northern France put in a medal-winning performance recently. It’s just had the honor of welcoming a certain flaming torch during the latest stage of a three-month-long journey around the country. Encircling the cycle track, around 850 liters of our Trimétal brand were used to paint a freewheeling tribute to sporting excellence. Covering more than 2,100m², the dynamic fresco performs a dual role – celebrating the streets of the local town and communicating the knuckle-clenching excitement of competitive sport. #AkzoNobel #PaintTheFuture #PassionForPaint #Trimetal #Color #Sports Ville de Creil Agglomération Creil Sud Oise

Delighted to welcome the Dutch Ambassador in Indonesia, Lambert Grijns, to our Cikarang decorative paints site. During the recent visit, he inaugurated an innovative high-speed tinting line and was given a tour of the facility, which produces Dulux products. The Netherlands is the largest European investor in Indonesia, with AkzoNobel operating four commercial and three manufacturing sites, actively contributing to the country’s economy and providing employment for more than 700 people. Our focus on education and protecting cultural heritage through our global “Let’s Colour” program also enables us to help local communities paint a brighter future. #AkzoNobel #PaintTheFuture #LetsColour #Dulux

Did you know the iconic Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam isn’t actually white, but blue? Our Sikkens brand has been protecting and beautifying the famous Dutch bridge for the past 28 years. Over time, the original blue has faded and we’re currently working alongside Van der Ende Steel Protectors Group to restore “The Swan” to its former glory. Using around 1500 liters of light blue Sikkens paint, certified painting experts need nerves of steel to abseil down the side of a 139-meter-high pylon and give the entire structure a fresh coat. Covering a total of 47,000m², the complex renovation project is expected to be completed before the end of the year. #AkzoNobel #PaintTheFuture #Sikkens #ErasmusBridge #VanDerEnde

Great work by one of our colleagues to help celebrate 25 years of Kindig-it Design – famous for its starring role in popular TV show Bitchin’ Rides. Chris Harsh, a training instructor from our Automotive Training Center in California, US, spent 80 hours working his magic to create a stunning artwork to mark the occasion. Using hundreds of layers of our vehicle refinish paint, he crafted an eye-catching depiction of the Utah landscape – where the renowned custom car restoration company founded by Dave Kindig is located. We’re proud to produce the ace car restorer’s Modern Classikk paint range, while Dave is also our Sikkens brand ambassador for North America. #AkzoNobel #PaintTheFuture #Automotive #DaveKindig
