It’s that time of year again — finding out what the major color associations are predicting will be the biggest colors of the year in home merchandising and design! This year, I reported on the 2010 Color Trends for the Home Workshop blog. This past December, I did quickly post about Pantone’s choice but make sure you click on over to Home Workshop for the full report, which includes additional color predictions by the Paint Quality Institute and the Color Marketing Group. BTW, how did last year’s Color Trends prove for you? Mimosa, the beautiful bright yellow, was supposed to be a big color…
Thanks for the explanations and the area each group focuses on – very imformative. Color is so emotional and an aspect that can drive so many decisions. Just ask any of our clients.
This is very informative and inspiring Regina and I do like your professional approach to the subject
Thank You…
I think that turquoise will do well this year, but never was a fan of yellow nor did I see it used as much as predicted…
As turquoise contains both elements of warm and cool colors, it is universally wearable and adds a fun punch to any interior color scheme.
Thank you, Art & AHF for your kind comments. Lisa, I agree with you — didn’t see much use of the Mimosa yellow (such a happy color) but am fully prepared to use turqouise a lot this year. Looking forward to it…
Loved yellow before the ‘09 trend report, love it now. Almost every room of my home has some shade of yellow, and it’s wonderful! Had several clients last year to request a color scheme including yellow, and working with someone now who wants a yellow kitchen. Maybe it’s a West Coast thing…sunny. :)
