Benjamin Moore’s 2023 Color of the Year – Raspberry Blush

“People are completely ready to carry color again into the dwelling, taking a action outside their colour comfort zones,” states Andrea Magno, shade marketing and growth director at Benjamin Moore, in a press release about the announcement. “Raspberry Blush (2008-30) and the Coloration Traits 2023 palette empower the use of assertion hues that supply delight and individuality while transforming rooms for extraordinary results.”

The rest of the aforementioned Shade Tendencies palette (pictured underneath) also skews fairly colourful and loaded, from Wenge (AF-180), a chocolate with black and violet undertones, which I could see dwelling in a more historic home, to North Sea Inexperienced (2053-30), a deep, soothing, but modern day teal with a minimal little bit of grey in the combine. The latter of all those shades would seem to be where environmentally friendly hues are headed, away from the earthy sages and ferns that have been trending recently and back again to a far more aquatic supply of inspiration.

You will not locate a white in the blend this 12 months, possibly the closest coloration is New Age (1444), a whisper-comfortable purple-grey. Even nevertheless the palette only contains eight colours, pared down from other years, you can truly feel a sense of pleasure and the momentum of maximalism in its design and style ethos.

In celebration of this year’s COTY announcement, Benjamin Moore enlisted electro-funk duo Chromeo to riff on what this shade may well appear like in track sort. You can pay attention to Chromeo’s song “Raspberry Blush” on Spotify and download other playlists encouraged by Benjamin Moore’s 2023 palette there, much too.
