Up and coming color trends!!

What is the up and coming color trends? According to Pantone, there are 4 color palettes that are emerging strong. So what are they?


1. Ephemeral. We are going to see a lot of pastels.  There is a move towards softer colors. The world has become a much more stressful place. People are looking for a way to destress, and color is one way to achieve that. Rooms that are painted in pastels have a quiet, calming, relax effect. Pastels will be seen in just about everything, from fashion, to accessories, to appliances.

2. Bijou. Think jewel tones, amethyst, violet. Metallic finishes, think sheen, iridescent, pearlized finishes. This is just about finishes and the material being used will have a great impact on the finish.

3. Footloose. This is a palette about nature. It's about kicking back, relaxing and bring the garden indoors. Think flower colors, blue, green, yellow, orange, taupes.

Sunlight Heritage Homes

4. Mix Bag. Technology today has made the world a smaller place. Cultures are blending. Think bright bold colors. This isn't just a trend, this is life and it's here to stay. Global eclectic mix. A good global mix is almost unidentifiable. You shouldn't be able to identify the culture.

What do you think of this up and coming color trend? Can you see yourself doing any of these palettes? Which one is your favorite? One thing for sure, people are being bolder then ever. Gone are the days when you would buy furniture and keep it 20-30 years, like our parents and grandparents did. We have become a disposable generation, which may not be a bad thing when it comes to design and color! It keeps our design young and fresh and I like that!!
