Every year, Pantone along with the nation's top paint companies predict which colors embody the overall themes of the New Year, ultimately deciding which colors will leave the biggest impact on our homes. This year's selection is an eclectic mix of bold colors and subtle tones meant to inspire you to embrace nature while also encouraging you to be your authentic self. The 2023 Colors of The Year are grounding, energizing, forward-thinking, yet somewhat familiar. Take a look below and start thinking about how to incorporate these trending colors into your home.
Pantone Color of the Year: Viva Magenta
Ready to enter the #Magentaverse? Vivaciously bold. Daringly electric. That's how we're choosing to describe the color you can expect to see on everything from cookware to window coverings next year. Pantone announced Viva Magenta as its 2023 Color of the Year, and the fiery fuchsia color is equally as energizing as it is stunning.

Touted as "the new animated red," Pantone describes the color as one that encourages "experimentation and self-expression without restraint." We can definitely get behind that message. Check out these window covering samples inspired by Viva Magenta.

Vibrant, bold, electric. Inspired by four major influences, including health, well being and nature, Terra Rosa is a "deep, rosy pink hue with a touch of terra-cotta influence." Think millennial pink's edgier older sister. It's the color everyone is talking about. From home decor to clothing, this rosy hue is absolutely the moment.

Pale pink hues- meet soft, cool brown in Sherwin-William's Color of the Year. The paint company describes this pinkish-brown color as "warm and intriguing, yet minimal and inviting." This soft hue is perfect for bedrooms or home offices, or as an accent color in the kitchen or living room. This soft, feminine color can help give your room a romantic feel with draperies or roman shades.

3. Canyon Ridge: Better Homes and Gardens

If you need an instant mood-lifter, Better Homes and Garden's Color of the Year is the choice for you. A bright, cheery orange with pink undertones, better known as Canyon Ridge, is similar in a sense to last year's muted green shade, Laurel Leaf. Both colors are inspired by nature, but Canyon Ridge "skews more sunbaked clay than cayenne pepper." Sunny and effervescent enough to stand on its own, it makes a great pair with cobalt blue accents. We think Canyon Ridge would pair well with Woven Wood shades for a tropical island resort feel year-round.

Glidden's Color of The Year is a gorgeous jewel-toned teal shade. "It is energizing yet grounding, and it works in literally any space," says Glidden Color Expert Ashley McCollum. This blue-green color is the perfect blend of modern and traditional style. Vining Ivy would be perfect for bedrooms as well as an accent color in a living room or office. "This teal is as adaptable as its botanical namesake and expertly intertwines bold blue and refined green to create a captivating color symbolic of deep water," says Business Wire.

Continuing the theme of grounding colors, Dutch Boy has landed on a new-age beige color as its 2023 Color of The Year. Described as a versatile neutral that brings harmony and contentment home, Rustic Beige leans toward the grey color spectrum. We suggest a Roman or Woven Wood shade with this modern, neutral color.

Rooted in the renewing power of green, it can balance with both warm and cool accents," says Senior Color Designer Ashley Banbury.
