Besides fashion houses, color trends are the fate of those who want to make modern home renovations. Moreover, according to psychologists, correctly selected colors determine the mood and even the state of health at home.
As leading designers say, the general direction of 2021 includes colors that create a calm, light and natural atmosphere in the room. What colors we’re talking about, read below.
Many companies have bright hues in their offices that go beyond white, black, and gray. But which of them are the trendiest in 2021? The main is blue. Any of its shades are popular: from bright to deeper ones. In psychology, blue means reliability, organization, and unhurried decision-making. Blue accents in the workspace are very helpful if a person is prone to mood swings, burnout, and inability to concentrate on important tasks.
In addition to blue, green is very well-loved by designers. It has a positive effect on the nervous system, vision, and tune in to work.
Designers also recommend keeping the interior in basic shades – gray, neutral beige, khaki. But you also shouldn't forget about fashionable colors – honey, lemon, and samba and add them through decor items or wall color in specific areas.
Interior paint maker Dulux has named brown-beige Brave Ground as the lead color for 2021 interiors. And although many expected something more cheerful and bright after the pandemic, designers advise to duly appreciate this color – a neutral warm shade is associated with peace of mind, calmness, and confidence.
As a rule, this earthy beige shade goes well with companion paints and natural materials in the interior.
Pantone experts sing the odes to Illuminating Yellow and Ultimate Gray. According to experts, the brightness and cheerfulness of the former go harmoniously with the strength and tranquility of the latter. This combination makes it easy to create a perfect design: against the background of gray walls, paintings in yellow shades look good, and warm yellow textiles greatly complement the room.
In 2021, authentic earthy shades of sea, sky, sand, and greenery are considered fashionable. Firstly, they are harmoniously combined with each other, and secondly – with the trendy Brave Ground color. Natural wood, living plants, ceramic figurines and dishes, textiles made from natural fabrics, custom-shaped pillows, as well as decorative rich mustard or indigo pillows will make a perfect extra decoration.
Warm neutral gray and brown shades will bring harmony and comfort to the house as well. These paints are favorably combined with rich materials such as velvet, gold, marble, copper.
By the way, the Urbane Bronze color, proposed by the American manufacturer of paints and varnishes, fits perfectly into this palette. According to the company's experts, it helps to create a sense of a protected space.
Benjamin Moore proposes to pay attention to cold shades, namely Aegean Teal – a dull, dusty turquoise. It can be used as a base color for a living room, bedroom, bathroom, nursery, kitchen, and as accents.
Rustic colors are perfectly combined with it: pale pink, dark red, pale yellow, pink-coral, orange, green-turquoise, violet-blue, regatta, lavender, gray, silver, gold, brown.
And this means that you can not limit yourself in decor: the room should be decorated with all kinds of delicate pastel furniture, wooden dishes, wonderful throw pillows, or a photo pillow with flowers, mirrors framed in gilding, as well as modular paintings in the rustic style.
Farrow&Ball chose the luxurious Preference Red #297, which is a mix of red and pink. This combination will look super cool in the bedroom and living room.
The company also relies on warm brown – Broccoli Brown #108 and Callaghan #214. Such shades will remind you of the scorched soils of Spain, fill the house with warmth, and add coziness.
This palette also includes Dulux Fertile Soil 10YY 30/106 and Jotun Desert Pink 12120.
The trends set this year are almost classics. The renovation made in the shades listed will make your home a haven of tranquility and comfort. But of course, to use the color trends in the interior of 2021, it’s not necessary to start a large-scale renovation. You can bring current trends more simply and economically, for example, by decorating the wall with paintings in trendy colors, laying bright carpets on the floor, or buying interior items that match the Pantone.
However, no matter what unusual solutions the market offers, you need to remember: the interior is a comfortable space for its inhabitants. So the main trend of any year is the interior in colors that don’t contradict your personal tastes.
