2022 Color of the Year

Happy New Year! It’s a time to celebrate life and lay out your priorities for the year ahead. Keeping track of your priorities and resolutions for the year can often be tough. But, if one of those priorities is adding some new color to your home, we’ve got you covered.

The Benjamin Moore Color of the Year for 2022 is … drumroll please … GREEN. Okay, let’s get more specific. Three of the biggest names in paint, Benjamin Moore, Sherwin Williams, and Behr, have all leaned into green to represent the coming year, and it’s easy to see why. Green is the color associated with open meadows, forests, ferns, and some of the best vegetables and herbs money can buy. The color represents freshness, renewal, health, and balance. Adding green to your home is an ideal way to set the tone for the coming year.

Benjamin Moore’s green is October Mist. Described as a mix of green and silver, it definitely evokes the feeling of bringing the outside in. It pairs well with neutrals, other muted greens, and a couple wildcards like rust, lavender, and navy. This color can make a room stand out.

The color that Behr chose to represent 2022 is Breezeway. This paint tone is a light and serene combination of blue and green. This minty tone can easily brighten up your space, and it pairs well with neutrals. Want to make your home feel like a beach vacation? Then, Breezeway is the color for you.

Last but certainly not least is Sherwin Williams’ pick, Evergreen Fog. This color is reminiscent of sage and is the most neutral tone on our list. It pairs particularly well with browns and beiges. Evergreen Fog is a gorgeous color in its own right, but won’t distract from your individual design taste.

Whether you're looking for a muted tone or a bright accent color, there is a green to suit your taste.
