Painting walls is the most simple yet vital and versatile part of your overall decorating, and it’s an inexpensive way to freshen up your home, or office.
You might even be a little surprised about the Benjamin Moore color designer’s forecasted color of the year — Vintage Wine #2116-20.
Benjamin Moore states that it was - “First seen on the fashion runways of New York, Paris, and Milan, this rich hue with a deep brown base and a hint of smoky violet is just as magnificent in the home. As an undertone in many of the latest wood finishes, leathers, and other textiles, vintage wine, and its lighter variations, will make a great paint color pick for many applications over the coming years.”
Color is back in season, and in a very big way for 2011.
UPDATED 02/03/2011 – Even the online Lifestyle-Magazine fncimag.com has recognized the heralded contribution that Benjamin Moore has made by revealing to their readers “The 18 Hottest Colors for Home Design in 2011″. They suggest that the beautiful color collection will “…dominate home decor for the next 12 months.”
Three colors that we want to make note of are:
Grape Green #20727-40: Think of the uniqueness of nature’s creation. The anticipated first, fresh taste of spring’s harvest of grapes from the vine. Grape Green is part of the Benjamin Moore Color Preview collection of 1,232 colors. Pick Grape Green as an accent color, or for those most emboldened as an entire room. It will excite and illuminate your world.
.
Royal Flush #2076-20: A color that demands to be used as a playful and vibrant fuchsia. If you want bedroom, or living room walls that refuses to just sit there… and you want your walls to punch back, then Royal Flush is your winning hand. For those who truly dare to be different consider using Royal Flush as an entry ceiling color. Royal Flush is also part of the Color Preview collection of colors.
.
Hush AF-95: So you say you’re a little overwhelmed with color right now… OK, let’s Hush things down a bit and start harmonizing the rest of the walls. Don’t call Hush just another beige though… it’s much more quiet than that. Think of it as a soft whisper that combines with your accent colors to give an entire room a respectful tone of solace. AF-95 Hush is part of the Affinity collection of colors from Benjamin Moore.
