A LOOK AT THE COLOURS OF THE YEAR FOR 2018

A LOOK AT THE COLOURS OF THE YEAR FOR 2018

The month is almost over and we are getting into the full swing of 2018. Let’s take a look at the colours of the year!

Ultra Violet

Pantone colour of the year is Ultra Violet 18-3838. This pretty purple is not everybody’s first thought, but this unexpected colour definitely stands out. This colour is unique and thoughtful, symbolizing empowerment and royalty. Whether it is used for a girls room or a dramatic backdrop in your living room, this daring colour is ready to make a statement! 

Caliente Red

Benjamin Moore had a different take on the 2018 colour of the year. Caliente (AF-290) is bold, bright and fun. Red has always been a colour that makes a statement and we are seeing it pop this year. Pairing it with neutral furniture or letting it stand out on its own, Caliente adds the perfect punch! 

Oceanside Blue

Sherwin-William’s take on this year’s colour is Oceanside SW6496. This calming colour is full of depth and vibrancy and adds a feeling of serenity to any room. Being a bit more muted, this colour of the year is a bit easier to use, but still carries its own. Whether in toss pillows, accent furniture or walls, this colour will make your home a place to relax in. 

Caliente, Ultra violet, Oceanside, the possibilities are endless! Spice up your home this year and add one of these 2018 colours to your life!
