Whether you rely on Benjamin Moore, Behr or Sherwin-Williams for your “Official Color Of 2020” content, the world of interior design is releasing its new set of neutrals for the new decade. This year, designers are pushing trends that elevate spaces to make them warm, upbeat and personable. While adding different colors into your home can sound daunting, it doesn’t automatically mean getting your hands dirty and picking up a brush. Here are some ways to test out 2020 color trends without investing in a can of paint.
FIRST LIGHT
With a soft feel and rosy finish, Benjamin Moore’s First Light 2102-70 promises to brighten rooms with a timeless feel. This uplifting color may feel feminine — it is pink after all — but thanks to its calming and understated hue, it acts as a neutralizer when paired with other rich colors. Add a touch of First Light into your home with a pair of plush accent chairs or a new duvet to feel the energy it provides, similar to the radiating shine of dawn that revitalizes each new day.
BACK TO NATURE
Also drawing inspiration from our environment, Behr’s Back To Nature S340-4 is an updated neutral with a calming vibe. This light green gives off that indoor-outdoor living feel, which has become even more popular as of late, all while providing a foundation for a natural palate. Whether you update a home cornerstone like your kitchen table with a light green version or find some Back-To-Nature-esque throw pillows for your leather couch, it’s an easy color to complement what already works in your home.
NAVAL
Navy can be a powerful color, so it’s no surprise Sherwin-Williams is embracing the impactful hue with Naval SSW 6244. The cool, grounding color gives off a mature confidence while still providing a clean slate to play off of. If painting a bold accent wall sounds like a chore, embrace this shade by investing in a navy art deco-inspired tufted couch for your formal living room. With gold accents and pops of warmer colors, like First Light and Back To Nature, these smaller additions can help your home’s aesthetic flow together.
