We tend to look at fashion when designating color trends. We’re seeing today that many people want colors that are synonymous with tranquility—colors that evoke the same feeling as being in a spa. They don’t want flashy colors, but rather something relaxing and luxurious. Our team recently worked on a project and developed a rich, neutral color story with backwashes that draw the eye without overwhelming.
I foresee the blush color taking off in the spring. In recent years, we’ve seen a lot of green and tropical colors. As this phases out, blush will take precedence as it is a complementary color and a beautiful neutral. It’s a color people naturally gravitate towards. Overall, color stories in hospitality will remain neutral but with strong pops of color. Yellow will be especially popular against blush tones and warmer browns.”
