NATURAL HARMONY Benjamin Moore defines its Color Trends 2021 palette as a comforting and uplifting group of 12 hues rooted in the handspun textures of the home.
lue is one of my favorite colors and I believe there are ways to incorporate it into every home. Lucky for me Aegean Teal 2136-40 has been named Benjamin Moore’s color of the year for 2021, an intriguing blue-green that creates natural harmony and encourages reflection. “The colors we surround ourselves with can have a powerful impact on our emotions and wellbeing,” says Andrea Magno, Benjamin Moore’s director of color marketing and development. “The Color Trends 2021 palette expresses a welcoming, lived-in quality that celebrates the connections and real moments that take place within the home.” Color on the walls can be tricky if you’re trying to sell, but in the right hue and location it can draw the eye and attention of prospective buyers. My pre-listing process includes a review and recommendation on how to incorporate a seller’s existing colors or find a way to neutralize them if they are too bold and may lessen the value. In addition to Aegean Teal, you can find the entire palette on my Instagram page. I’m in love with how it looks in this kitchen with copper accents and as way to add a punch of color in your home office. Comment with your favorites! n

Our Wish Tree event was a success!
I
nspired by the popular book “Wishtree” written by Katherine Applegate, the Baird & Warner Mission: Community team hosted an interactive art event last month outside our office at 210 W. Northwest Highway, where friends and neighbors came together to place a ribbon symbolizing their good wishes and intentions. The whole team was thrilled with the results: our vision came to life with a focus around the word “Community” interwoven in yellow in the center of the display. Surrounding it were hundreds of colorful ribbons placed by area residents. It was both inspirational and emotional for me to read the wishes—many were hoping for peace, health, and success while others wished for basics like jobs or a place to live. The book Wishtree is a story about inclusivity and community—important tenets of the B&W Mission: Community program. The overall objective of Mission: Community is to provide an ongoing program of goodwill and support to both residents and local organizations. Follow me on Instagram and Facebook to be alerted to future community events and how you can participate. n
