Introducing...Very Peri! How do you describe Very Peri? It's a dynamic blue with violet-red undertones. Pantone describes it as blending the faithfulness and constancy of blue with the energy and excitement of red. While Pantone concentrates on an all-encompassing color trend, paint companies who determine "Colors of the Year" use the same criteria geared towards home interiors. Playing on last years "calm me down and help me feel secure" colors, it's unanimous! Green is THE home decor color of 2022! Green is a calming color and represents regrowth. With that in mind, let's look at colors the major paint companies say will be everywhere next year. |
Guacamole by Glidden Just like our favorite appetizer, Guacamole is relaxing and refreshing. It brings an organic energy to any space. Olive Spring by PPG This is a crisp, earthy color that mimics nature's resiliency and can blend into any environment. Breezeway by Behr Like a breath of fresh air, Breezeway is a cool, Evergreen Fog by Sherwin-Williams Combine green and gray with a hint of blue and you get a versatile and calming hue. It's simple and sophisticated. October Mist by Benjamin Moore October Mist is a muted shade of sage green that can carry a look with drawing too much attention to itself. |
