2021 SW Color of The Year
It all begins with an idea.
Sherwin Williams - Urbane Bronze
We saw grey paint hit the trends a few years ago - every apartment, commercial building, retail store, etc. was painted a shade of grey as it was the new “classic”. I still dont think grey paint is out per-say, but this year, we are seeing a return to warmth. These neutrals that we have become accustomed to lack the warm under tones that helps a space feel balanced. Sherwin Williams caught onto this trend too and has announced their 2021 color of the year - Urbane Bronze.
This dark Bronze tone looks like a charcoal, near black, in space but when you look at it next to a true black, you realize just how warm it truly is. As human beings, we all crave warmth and comfort - its part of how we are hardwired. Whether we notice it or not, we naturally gravitate towards spaces that make us feel welcome, comforted and at home.

Benjamin Moore announced their color of the year and it is Aegean Teal 2136-40. It is a really beautiful muted teal with just a hint of green. Instead of telling you to use it, I am going to let these inspiration boards do the talking!
