Every year the "Color of the Year" is chosen by a number of experts and while it is doubtful it will mean re-painting your whole house...you will see more things available in these hues not only in paint but accessories and furniture as well.
Pantone is time tested guide for all things color worldwide...ask anyone who is in graphic arts or ever has been ...pantone color swatches guided them through corporate logos and brochures...and their bold selection this year is Ultra Violet....No they didn't ask me....it just looks as though they have, says she who LOVES all things Purple.
It is being dubbed ....a little bit cosmic...mysterious....a hue we can embrace for the future....which makes me psychic...I have always loved it...let me count the ways.
Sherwin Williams has a different hue in mind for their Sherwin Williams Color of the Year twenty eighteen.Their choice is a shade they call Oceanside...a deep blue/green....not exactly teal. This rich jewel tone they tout as being universal in an application that can be used in any home decor style and add welcoming marine inspired thoughtfulness from mid century to contemporary furnishings.
On to the experts at Benjamin Moore for their color forecast for the coming year. A bold statement with an air of excitement....they have chosen Caliente a shade of RED that they are calling..."the signature color of a modern architectural masterpiece."
Rolling out the red carpet of this bold yet warming choice.
If you are considering selling your house, you may wish to neutrailize your choices of wall/woodwork colors and choose these vibrant jewel tones in accents on pillows, area rugs, etc. Any one of them goes well with white or natural woodwork . So glad we have said good bye to the beige and brown some people found bla and a bit depressing.
Welcome the new year with bold color choices if you wish....as accents....as compliments to the base of neutral decor you have chosen.
