Hottest Color Trends
This years color trends are inspired by nature. The growing concern for the earth's environment seems to be influencing the colors people are attracted to. Many people are looking for ways to bring the colors of the outdoors inside their home. Look to see more subdued shades, evoking images of a cool day at the beach or a walk through the park.
Green is the focal point for this summer's color trends. Green is the color of nature. It symbolizes growth, harmony, freshness,
and fertility. Look for softer, more botanical greens inspired by nature. You might see these colors mixed with other shades of green or even more neutral colors like tan and chocolate brown. Blending chocolate brown with a more vibrant green evokes a true representation of nature.
Blues inspired by nature also seem to be a favorite color this season. The color of sky, the color of water; these true blues from nature can be seen everywhere. Try mixing a darker blue with white or ivory to give an airy feel; or for a more dramatic effect use a lighter blue with black or chocolate brown. Blue is the color of the sky and sea. It is often associated with depth
and tranquility. Use shades of blue in rooms that you want to evoke a feeling of relaxation, such as a bedroom or bathroom.
Bringing nature-inspired colors inside your home can create a calm and peaceful appeal. Natural shades and textures are easy to work with and blend well with almost all types and styles of home decor. Bringing elements of the environment into your home can create a sense of peace and relaxation that makes any home inviting.
