The colours we choose to decorate our homes are incredibly important because our homes are a physical representation of personality, as well as a personal space for comfort, security and more.
Read on to explore the colour trends for this year to make sure your home is en-vogue!
We believe that Pantone sets the... tone for the year.
This year, the Pantone colour of the year is Viva Magenta 18. Viva Magenta is a fearlessly loud and bold pink shade deriving from the red family - a colour that exudes heat, and is often seen as a symbol and metaphors for: power, passionate love, passion, adventure, and energy.
With that, we think the colour hues that will trend this year will have a warm tone to them, as shown with both Earthborn and Dulux.
Earthborn’s colour of the year for 2023, Lady Bug, is rich, warm, and earthy - making its presence known in any home.
Circling back to the richness and warmth of the hue, Lady Bug is just one of the warm and earthy tones that are set to sweep their way into the hearts and homes of all for the next year - a welcome sight following on from the far-too similar pastel tones that have dominated homes and high streets for the last few years.
Lady Bug is a beautiful burgundy, packing a deeper intensity than lighter shades of red. With its beautiful earthy brown undertones, Lady Bug exudes a classic, yet calming sophistication and warmth. If you are someone looking to prove a point, Earthborn's Lady Bug can help with that.
Dulux too have opted to add warmth with their colour of the year, Wild Wonder.
Inspired by the warm tones of harvested crops, Wild Wonder helps to bring the beauty and warmth of nature and all associated connotations into the home.
In addition to the beauty and warmth, Wild Wonder brings a positive energy into any home due to the touch of green pigment in the paint, as well as its ability to reflect light because of its warm, yellow golden tones.
Using Wild Wonder in your home
Bringing warm and natural tones into your home is easy, if you know how, especially by using PAINT Direct, we can mix Wild Wonder into any finish, including Quick Dry Satinwood, Silk and Washable and Tough Easycare with Dulux Mixed to Order - helping you to create your perfect paint colour.
Late in 2022, Dorset based paint manufacturers and trend setters, Farrow and Ball released their first set of 11 new colours in four years, of those, we think the fiery orange named Bamboozle will roll its way into homes across the country in an incredible variety of finishes.
As Farrow and Ball’s ‘most spirited red’, Bamboozle packs quite the punch that can provide joy and warmth to any home - be it traditional or modern.
We would really recommend using this Farrow and Ball’s famed Full Gloss.
Whilst we couldn’t find an official colour of the year from Crown, we can only suggest these shades to you.
