Swinging to the opposite side of the color wheel from all those 2022 greens, Terra Rosa is a mix of terra-cotta and dusty rose—but not your mama’s dusty rose. “Terra Rosa is a connection to the past through rose-tinted glasses,” Dunne-Edwards says. “As we attempt to untangle ourselves from the emotional ties of the pandemic, we look to powerful, comforting hues that evoke a sense of strength and protection. Terra Rosa can be both a neutral and empowering statement color.”

This white easily harmonizes with a wide range of hues, including neutrals, earth tones and pastels for a charming and cozy appeal.”

While it’s not a hue for the faint of heart, Andrea Magno, Color Marketing & Development Director at Benjamin Moore, is convinced that, “People are ready to bring color back into the home, taking a step outside their color comfort zones.” Benjamin Moore says their 2023 color of the year is “the definition of charismatic color,” describing it as “a vivacious shade of coral tinged with pink” that delivers “delight and personality”.

Is it blue? Is it green? Is it both at the same time?  According to Glidden, “This ‘bluish-greenish-something-in-betweenish’ color serves up versatile vibes, making it an on-trend addition to any room. No matter if you think it looks more blue or more green, either way, it’s a vibe.”

REDEND POINT BY SHERWIN-WILLIAMS

Sherwin Williams invites you to “embrace a spirit of connection with the world around us with this soulful-yet-subtle hue.” Described as “minimal yet cozy,” Redend Point “creates a comforting backdrop for the everyday moments that matter.” This neutral shade with a faintly desert feel pairs well with other warm earthy tones anywhere in your home.
