Warm honey will be replaced by a cool pastel green shade.
Yes, even such a thing as the color of the walls in the house is subject to fashion trends. While fashion designers present their fall / winter collections, paint makers set forth interior trends for the coming year. Dulux, a premium brand of paints and varnishes, has designated a color that will dominate in 2020. It’s called The Soothing Dawn.
The hazy shade of pastel green is meant to help people feel more human.
“On the threshold of a new decade, we are thinking more and more about what makes us human, trying to understand it,” say experts from the global aesthetic center Akzo Nobel, who helped the company decide on the main color of the year.
According to experts, in society, despite the fact that everyone is always in touch with everyone, disunity is growing. People are becoming disconnected from each other, communication is moving into a virtual plane more and more, human warmth becomes less, and the influence of artificial intelligence is more and more.
“Against the background of growing technological power, we want to understand our place in society and understand how we can influence it, change it for the better,” experts say.
The neutral green hue of Calm Dawn – or Tranquil Dawn – is a nod to nature.
“It is a color that takes on the space between heaven and earth at dawn,” says Marianne Schillingford, Creative Director at Dulux. “The new decade heralds a new dawn and hazy pale greens soothe us just when we need it most.”
Of course, there is no need to repaint the house in accordance with the fashion. It is enough to add accents: to update the wall, facades on furniture in the kitchen or decorative elements. “Calm Green” is quite neutral and will easily fit into any interior – from bright to classic.
