Color is a powerful design tool. It can be used to easily change the mood of a room without any major renovations—either by painting a room or adding furniture and accents. Here are some of the industry leaders’ picks for colors that are on trend this year.

blue

No color is more timeless than blue. This year is all about the dramatic shades, like navy and royal blue. These strong shades represent dependability, hopefulness, and trust. For a bold look, SherwinWilliams’ Naval makes a statement in a kitchen. If you’re after a relaxing oasis, try a classic blue paired with white.

green

Bring the outdoors in with shades of green. Muted, earthy greens, like Behr’s Back to Nature, represent renewal and create a calming environment—perfect for a relaxing living room. More vibrant shades, like chartreuse, are known for increasing energy and creative thinking, great accent color for an office.

pink

Blush tones have become a new neutral. Light pink is fresh and uplifting, and creates a modern space. Benjamin Moore’s First Light is inspired by the beauty and optimism of a sunrise. More rosy shades of pink become especially luxe when paired with gold or jewel toned accents.
