2020 Behr Color of the Year: Back To Nature S340-4

Expect to see pops of warm meadow-inspired green in homes in 2020, friends!  Behr just announced their 2020 Color of the Year and it is meant to bring the soothing feelings of the outdoors in to interior spaces...

According to Behr,  “Back To Nature S340-4 is a fresh and slightly yellow-based green serves as an ideal backdrop to satisfy the desire for a soft landing at home and reflects societal trends toward embracing the outdoors as a collective and personal self-care activity. Back To Nature’s universal appeal and willingness to coexist with other hues make it a great option for adding peace and tranquility to any space.”

Yay or nay for a return to neutrals after last year's bold pop of blue?

2019 Behr Color of the Year: Blueprint, S470-5

Trend Lovers- Behr Paint just announced their 2019 Color Of The Year...

Blueprint, S470-5.  It is a strong, mid-range blue that is definitely more likable than the trending colors of years past (ahem, Ultra Violet... I am talking to you). These announcements typically foreshadow fashion and home trends for the upcoming year. 

I can see this color being a HUGE hit in home accessories, accent doors, and kitchen islands as blue has been the "belle at the ball" for awhile as it is.  Feeling blue, friends?💙
