Thinking about freshening up your home’s paint color?

This article from Better Homes and Gardens gives up the secret color trend predictions! According to the article “Paint manufacturers and color experts have shared their predictions on the color trends to come in 2020, and the wide range of forecasted shades has something for everyone.”

Heres our top predictions from the article:

Rich Earth Tones

Nature-inspired shades reminiscent of the changing seasons will influence home color selections in 2020, paint manufacturers predict. As homeowners look for more ways to unplug, velvety earth tones, such as chestnut, burgundy, and deep olive green, offer a soothing organic element to indoor spaces.

Soothing Pastels

Soft pastel paint colors, such as pale pinks, greens, and blues, will continue to trend in the year ahead. These calming hues can bring harmony to a space and soothe overstimulated eyes. Look for pastel colors with gray undertones, which help diffuse the color saturation and make these hues softer on the eye.

Moody Blues

Sue Wadden, director of color marketing at Sherwin-Williams, notes that the use of color in design is shifting from a focus on the overall look to an emphasis on how the space makes you feel. "People want to feel grounded and inspired to pursue their mental, physical and emotional well-being," she says.  As the world's most relaxing color, blue is ideal for your bedroom, living room, or another area of your home where you're looking to create a calming escape.
