Color trends 2023

'Color is incredibly emotive and we have deeply rooted associations with certain colors and tones of color. Layered onto this is a joyfulness when you see color and pattern mixed together in a skillful way that makes your heart sing a little. It’s experiencing something refreshing and just a little bit different or unexpected that gives us all mental lift,' says Jo Littlefair, co-founder and director of Goddard Littlefair .

Working in harmony with the latest interior design trends, read on to find out the favored color trends for this year.

1. Empowering pinks

With Viva Magenta revealed as Pantone's Color of the Year 2023, expect to see rich, deep pinks with elegant red and purple undertones used across the interior design world.

Described by Pantone as 'a shade rooted in nature descending from the red family, Viva Magenta is brave and fearless, and a pulsating color whose exuberance promotes a joyous and optimistic celebration, writing a new narrative.'

Leatrice Eiseman, executive director at the Pantone Color Institute says, 'Viva Magenta reconnects us to original matter. Invoking the forces of nature, it galvanizes our spirit, helping us to build our inner strength.'

With Benjamin Moore's Color of the Year 2023 also announced as Raspberry Blush, these empowering pinky-red shades embody a truly adventurous character and mark just how bold color trends and interior design choices are set to be in 2023.

We know decorating with pink is not for everyone, but maybe this will be the year you'll experiment with the color in your home.

2. Heritage inspired hues

Ed O'Donnell, the co-founder of Angel O'Donnell , says that 2023 will be the year of ' re-imagined heritage colors', he goes on to say, 'richly pigmented hues will create warm, soothing and inviting spaces. Deep blues, putty pinks, and rich reds with mercurial magenta undertones are some of the reimagined heritage colors we’ll be seeing a lot of.'

The return of these classic, heritage colors is not only limited to more traditional, period properties, they will be integrated into beautiful modern settings also, establishing an eclectic mix of the old and the new.

A beautiful example of this is Farrow & Ball 's recent launch of their 11 new colors. Joa Studholme, color curator for the brand describes the collection, 'these 11 new shades, which take their lead from our existing palette, have an instantly recognizable elegance. They range from easy-to-use lights to dramatic and atmospheric darks, all of which make our palette even more relevant for celebrating and sharing our homes.'

From Bamboozle, the bright red shown above, to Whirlybird, a calming pale green, and Wine Dark, an elegant midnight gray, the refreshing, rich palette establishes a delicate interplay between the traditional and the contemporary, with the colors effortlessly able to integrate into homes of all styles.

3. Go for a glorious green

The influence nature has on interior design will always be timeless, and green, a color synonymous with nature and the beauty of the natural world, remains one of the most popular colors to use in interior design in 2023.

Strong yet soothing, green room ideas can give a space an enveloping feel, but they can also sit quietly and calmly, allowing for other materials and bright accent colors to take center stage. Of all the cool colors, green is perhaps one of the most versatile.

Martin Waller, founder of Andrew Martin says, 'green is the new gray. The austerity of the gray, taupe age is over. It’s the age of all things emerald, lime, forest, pistachio, jade, and sage in everything from wall colors, fabrics, cushions, headboards, rugs, and curtains.'

When using green in your home, Judy Smith of Crown Paints advises, 'it’s all about what you pair it with. Greens with a blue base are impactful, so introducing soft tones of clay white and chalky grey in furniture and accessories, while keeping the flooring light, brights balance, and a calming feel to a scheme.’ 

4. Opt for grounding, earthy neutrals

(Image credit: Farrow & Ball)

There’s plenty of debate as to how to define ‘neutral’ colors. We tend to think of them as tones such as white, beige, grey, ivory and khaki that don’t appear on the color wheel.

In general, neutral room ideas are calming and easy to use – they work with almost every other color, but it’s important to consider how pigments are affected by light.   

‘The light in a room is a key to deciding whether to choose warm or cool tones,’ says Ruth Mottershead of Little Greene . There is a difference between warm neutrals (with a green or yellow undertone), which work well in north-facing rooms as they bounce light around, and cool ones (with a bit pink, violet or blue).'

When decorating with neutrals, texture and layering are essential. Mix warm metallics such as brass or bronze and natural wood with linen, velvet, sheepskin and chunky knits, or choose a bright accent color to create an elegant contrast.

5. Establish a cozy and cocooning space with warm browns

The return of the seventies has been influencing interior trends for 2022 and into 2023; with a palette of warm taupes, browns and caramel tones becoming immensely popular across everything from paint to upholstery.

Nick Cryer from Berkeley Place says, 'we are seeing clients move on from gray, towards darker, more dramatic shades, such as dark blues and greens and charcoal and brown, with these warm, earth-based colors reinforcing a connection to nature.' 

The nuances of decorating with brown are often underplayed but one look at Little Greene's 'Chimney Brick' shows how complex and interesting the shade can be. 

Part chocolate, part woodland and with a dash of purple grape, there is an unexpected richness that reveals itself in different ways. In North facing rooms it will create a cocooning field and in brighter spaces, it allows the opportunity to layer other shades of brown for more impact.

6. Dusky pinks and purples

Contrasting to the impactful notes of Viva Magenta, 2023 will also see the rise of a collection of romantic, dusky pinks and purples.

Trend forecasters WGSN + Coloro named 'Digital Lavender ' as their color of the year 2023, a soft and calming pastel purple that 'will connect to this focus on wellbeing, offering a sense of stability and balance. '

With Sherwin-Williams Color of the Year 2023 announced as Redend Point, a beautiful blush beige, shown above, the color perfectly embodies how more muted pinks and purples are becoming versatile and popular 'new neutrals' to use in the home.

TrendBible support this, and have also listed 'Maple Sugar' as their key color of 2023, a light and sugary pink that feels welcoming and fun, they say, 'neutral colors promote a minimalist scheme whilst accents of color in uplifting hues can be used to inject personality. A soft and warming pastel is the perfect grounding for accents of color to stand out and add clarity and individualism.'

7. Inspire optimism with bold color choices

(Image credit: Farrow & Ball)

Ruth Mottershead, creative director at Little Greene says, 'the past few years have dramatically changed people’s approach to their interiors and we are seeing consumers really finding their own sense of color confidence in their homes.'

Andy Greenall, creative director at Paint & Paper Library also supports this and says, 'both consumers and designers are turning to color combinations that add drama and intrigue to a space, with many more dramatic color pairings. '

Whether it is an impactful accent wall, a stand-out sofa, or ceiling paint ideas, for many of us, embracing bolder, more impactful color choices will only serve to make our homes feel more unique, fun, and reflective of our personalities.

8. Pair pink with orange for a harmonious scheme

‘Scale really drives how diverse you can be with color pairings: larger homes can take a looser palette; in smaller homes, it’s best to keep the colors more concise – find three colors that harmonize and use them as a common thread for continuity,' says Charu Gandhi, founder and director, Elicyon . 

'I enjoy using ivory, egg-yolk yellows with hints of navy, mixed with copper and metal accents. Old rose pink, nude and orangey tones is also a nice palette – the combination of dull shades creates a calm but sumptuous aesthetic. We’re also using pastel lilac with thistle green and soft amber, which gives a pleasing visual sense. ’ 

9. Rethink traditional color combinations

(Image credit: Kit Kemp / Simon Brown)

With 2023 seeing us taking bigger and bolder risks with color, expect to see more daring color combinations and unique color pairings across interior and color trends.

‘In this suite at the Crosby Street Hotel (above), against the orange fabric-covered walls, I used my Friendly Folk design in Melon Orange for the curtains and cushions and in Basil Green on the chairs,' says Kit Kemp, founder, Firmdale Hotels . 

'Combined with Lewis & Wood’s Tribal in Limpopo on the sofas, this playful reverse color combination adds freshness to the warm room. A solid orange trim on the curtains and cushions helps to frame the fabric, creating a sense of harmony.’ 

10. Introduce vintage yellows

Tying into the resurgence of more classic heritage colors, a vintage yellow can work wonderfully in spaces both old and new, and can create a striking and luxurious atmosphere. The right shade can have surprising longevity and add a wonderful richness to a range of schemes.

Yellow is also the shade of happiness, with many of us exploring how we can decorate with yellow to uplift our homes with a refreshing and joyful look. Much research has been done into how colors affect our mood, and yellow room ideas are renowned to inspire optimism and can create a playful, summery feel – for a more modern look, team it with charcoal and black. 

'Tigers Eye' by Zoffany shown above, is a great example of an enduring, muddy yellow, it injects an infusion of sunshine while remaining on the right side of sophistication.

11. Create calm with beautiful blues

Jane Rockett of Rockett St George says, 'color on the cool spectrum – green hues from bright to blue, through to sea blue and cobalt on to purple and lavender – bring serenity to a space, so are ideal for your living room paint ideas and bedroom color schemes. '

Blue has the quality of being both soothing and invigorating and offers plenty of design versatility. Used with crisp white, it creates a calming coastal feel, while as one block of color, it can be an enveloping breath of fresh air, as shown above.  

Of course, its natural home is with other pastels, such as barely-there lemon and delicate pink, but for a more contemporary edge, earthy shades like rust and terracotta will make this color sing.

From Benjamin Moore's Starry Night Blue, a powerful, electric blue with references to the sea and the sky, to Farrow & Ball's clean, cool blue, Kittiwake, blue room ideas continue to be both invigorating and calming.

What will be the color of 2023?

As we have explored in this piece, there are collections of new colors revealed by paint brands, and favored colors celebrated by industry experts and designers that will be popular in 2023. 

Viva Magenta is currently reigning strong as one of the most talked-about colors of the year, marking a celebration of the use of impactful and strong colors in interior design for 2023.

With a move away from classic neutrals such as gray and beige, 2023 will also see a resurgence of re-imagined neutral shades, with enduring classics inspired by nature such as green, brown and blue remaining ever-popular.

Color trends for 2023 are all about how color can make you feel. It's about using positive and uplifting tones that impact your mood every time you walk into a new room. Get brave with wall paint, take chances with statement pieces of furniture, and don't hold back. 2023 is your time to unleash your personality on your interiors. 'It's time for neutral interiors to take a backseat.' ays Tulsa-based interior designer, Justice Quinn. 'Bold colors and prints need to express themselves and 2023 is the year for it.'

At the same time, we are also seeing a spectrum of new neutrals take to the fore - think earthy browns, mushroom grey tones and beige in all its hues. 'There is something inherently human in the colors that we are attracted to now,' says Joa Studholme, Farrow & Ball’s color curator, reflecting on the upward trend in earthy neutrals. Read on for our pick of the colors that will be bucking interior design trends for the year ahead.

The biggest color trends for 2023

1. Pistachio

(Image credit: Katherine Lu. Design: Carter Williamson)

Pistachio is packing a punch at the moment, with the trend for deep, forest greens moving paler into delicate sage greens and this gentle tone of pistachio. Its retro connotations make it a happy and positive shade, and strips this green of any coldness. 'We have seen a movement to green within recent years. Dark green has been the star of the show, but a further transition to softer, gentle greens like pistachio will be the next evolution of this trend,' says paint expert of British paint company, Little Greene , Ruth Mottershead. 'Pistachio provides soft sophistication - it contains complex pigmentation, significantly more than just blue and yellow, adding to its allure.'

We love the color as it is used here by Carter Williamson Architects , perfect in the bedroom, bringing softness and serenity to the space, and warmed up with a classic pink and green combination.

2. Mushroom grey

Keep your eyes peeled for mushroom grey making waves in 2023. A warmer counterpart to traditional grey, with warm undertones, it's one of the colors that's trending, with its roots in nature.

'2023 will be the year of the earth-tones,' says Romina Tina Fontana, principal at Quebec-based interior design firm, Fontana & Company . 'In particular, look for mushroom grey to dominate. The movement towards organic hues reflects a collective yearning for calm, quiet and cozy environments. In particular, an earth-tone living room can soothe the soul unlike anything else.'

Stirabout by Farrow & Ball

One of Farrow & Ball's 11 new shades for 2022, Stirabout has a mushroom feel to it. Inspired by the porridge the color of a homely bowl of nurturing porridge, Stirabout is an earthy tone with just a hint of grey.

3. Rust

We love rust for its combination of earthiness and decadence, harking back to the dominance of jewel-tone colors we saw trending last year. 'Rust red has the values of three colors put together, the strength of red, the stability of brown, and the energy of orange, is capable to softens the space making it cozy and welcoming.' says Tecla Tangora of Labscape Architecture and Design , the firm behind this project where a rust colored curtain cuts through what otherwise would be a simple and minimalist living room. The result is a warm living room that is beckoning and inviting.

4. Silver and gold

Look to materials as well as paint to bring color into your home, and embrace the opulence brought by a touch of silver and gold. Look to brass or nickel accessories, glass light fixtures or even stainless steel in the kitchen. With a natural sheen, these materials can reflect and augment other colors in the room and add that touch of luxury that we're looking for in our lives.

5. Jade

Touches of this jewel tone are popping up in interiors across the world. Pale blues and greens inspired by the natural color of the gem itself are increasingly popular and can be applied to both tranquil and striking aesthetics depending on how it is used. 

'Jade works well as the lead color in a modern bedroom or bathroom,' comments Ruth Webber, the Creative Director at Bert & May . 'It has an air of coastal chic and pairs well with neutrals and terracotta for an understated scheme.'

6. Honeyed tones

(Image credit: Bert and May)

'We have noticed a growing popularity for muted, pastel colors,' states Clara Ewart, interior designer, and Head of Design at Kitesgrove. 'Soft pastels are versatile and easy to incorporate in a myriad of schemes. Earthy yellow and orange tones are not only easy to style but feel incredibly current.'

Injecting small pops of the color initially can help build confidence before adding it to the wall. In modern bathrooms and kitchens, matching tonal shades on the tiles and walls brings cohesion to the space. 

7. Lavender

(Image credit: Mylands)

Our love for purple is back again, with paint brand Mylands claiming that searches for lilac is up by 33 percent on its website, not to mention WGSN’s prediction of Digital Lavender being the color of the year for 2023. 

Seen across fashion and interiors, shades of purple have previously been associated with wealth and royalty and, while many might associate it with a traditional interior scheme, designers are incorporating it into fresh, contemporary aesthetics bringing a new dynamic to the color.

8. Magenta pink

(Image credit: Covet House)

Some are calling it ‘Barbiecore’, but hot pinks have been working their way back into homes for a while, with our love for maximalist interiors increasing and social media instilling confidence into homeowners to experiment more with their color choices. This slow increase in interest culminated in Pantone's Color of the Year going to bright magenta. 

This shade makes a strong statement when used as the main color in a room, but if you aren’t sure about using it on the walls, try it on smaller areas such as woodwork, kitchen cabinetry or even a front door to introduce characterful color without dominating the space. In terms of accessories and decor, go for a sofa cushion in the color or a bright bedspread to add a little intrigue to a room.

9. Green and orange combined

(Image credit: Colors of Arley)

Green has been a firm favorite in the home for several years, however, there are certain shades which are increasing in popularity such as pine, pistachio, and all the colors that go with sage greens. While green works well on its own, pairing it with orange is bringing interior schemes to life and adding a playfully retro feel to the space. 

As seen in this kitchen, with fabrics by Colors of Arley , this color combination injects energy and brings fun, happiness and vitality to the home. 'Don’t forget to refer to the 60-30-10 rule when you’re decorating to ensure you achieve balance,' advises Louisa Tratalos, the founder of Colors of Arley. 'For example, opt for 60% of the room in green, 30% in your chosen orange and 10% in an accent, such as a soft cream to allow the main colors to do the talking.'

10. Warm beige

Our love for neutrals has returned, especially in bedroom trends, as it helps create a restful ambiance and a sanctuary to escape in. Warm and earthy creams work well paired with soft terracotta or deep red tones, adding depth to the room. 

Remember, with neutral schemes, layers of texture bring tactility and interest to create a distinguished feel within the space. 

11. Dark chocolate brown

(Image credit: Edward Bulmer)

Yes, brown is back. And it’s looking better than ever! With brown often perceived as drab or boring, designers and stylists are helping us to view the color in a new light. Bringing an earthy, yet sophisticated, tone to any interior, brown living rooms are full of drama. 

“Being polychromatic, brown goes with everything but in deeper hues it is particularly good at flattering beautiful, well-drawn patterns. I would even suggest that more people will find how useful brown is as a wall paint in support of clever colors in the artworks and furnishings,” says Edward Bulmer when discussing the brands own color, London Brown . “It puts everything else in a good light. It is strong and warm but somehow respectful to other colors regardless of weight or shade. I love its sophistication and I feel it might just be time for deep browns to enjoy a well-deserved resurgence!”

12. Deep red

(Image credit: Graphenstone)

Deep, earthy reds are having a revival thanks to the intensity of hues from paint experts such as Graphenstone . A brand new color for the brand, the Carnelian shade by Graphenstone has an opulence which elevates any interior and works exceptionally well with period features and detailing.  

Paired here with two different colors: Old Lilac for a soothing and comforting atmosphere or Cerulean Blue for a bolder, vivid, and striking statement. When combined with complementing colors, reds such as this work well in a variety of spaces and rooms. 

13. Paprika

The terracotta trend morphs into paprika, and we are glad it’s here to stay. This year, think of vibrant versions of the color to really make your home stand out. 

Blending different shades of paprika together creates a beautifully tonal look and, when set against neutral fabrics and linens, it comes together in a cohesive, sophisticated aesthetic. Caravan 453 by Paint & Paper Library is a gorgeous option for this style and brings the room to life. 

14. Sunlit Yellows with Black Accents

(Image credit: Little Greene)

With yellows firmly on trend for 2023, pairing brighter tones of the color with black accents in a monochromatic style is a great way to embrace the look.  

Colors such as yellow are helping to bring joy and happiness into the heart of the home. Matt black fixtures, fittings and furniture allows the color to pop, as shown here with Giallo 337 by Little Greene .  

15. Warm summery tones

(Image credit: Annie Sloan)

There has been a rise in uplifting shades this year (unsurprisingly). Yellows, tangerines, pale purples and baby pinks, which once may have sounded a bit saccharine are all seeping into interiors in a very sophisticated, grown-up way. In their more muted forms there are in fact surprisingly liveable shades even when used on four walls. 

'There are several colors that stand out to me, when I think of upcoming trends for 2022, and these include pinks, oranges, lavenders, purples, and greens.' says designer and master of color Yinka Ilori .  'Many of us have struggled to experience a proper summer, or to go on holiday this year, so people are tending to opt for richer tones that inject positivity and warmth into their homes - bringing that summer feeling inside. As an artist, I’ve always loved color and I’m glad to see how people are using it more and more to enrich their home environments.'

16. Rich blues

Blue comes into color trends every year, just taking a slightly different form. It's such a grounding, a familiar color that there's so surprise we are drawn to it year after year, and this year it's deep blues that are looking to be the most on-trend. And it's about really embracing the darker shades, not just bringing it into a neutral space with furniture, or a feature wall but going all over with an inky shade to create a dramatic and cocooning room.

'The boldness and warmth found in blue will continue to be prominent in our homes. Darker colors form a much better background for paintings and artworks than white, which art galleries and museums have discovered.' says Martin Waller, Founder of Andrew Martin . 'Having painted a room blue, it may take time to accustom yourself to the look. You're likely to be horrified. People find it difficult to cope with change. Leave it for a week and your feelings will alter. I suspect you won't hate it and if you do, repainting isn't that difficult. If you are still hesitant, start your transformation in a cloakroom or small bedroom, since richer colors work well in such spaces, despite the accepted wisdom that white paint makes a room seem larger.'

17. Deep jewel shades

(Image credit: Little Greene)

Dark and stormy is still up there when it comes to color trends. This time used
on staircases, feature windows or woodwork to bring elegant definition to a space. A deep plum or black with a red undertone makes for a warmer and more striking alternative to the popular deep charcoal greys and blue-blacks. It adds warmth to cooler palettes, and pairs beautifully with pink and nude tones. 

18. Baby pinks paired with teal greens

The unusual color pairing that is hot pink and forest green is unmissable seen everywhere right now across walls, homeware and even daringly kitchens like this viral kitchen combination. Green and pink are complementary colors as they sit opposite each other on the traditional color wheel and enhance each other and are far less contrasting than green and red.

19. Neutral stone hues

'The neutral trend continues subtly away from cold greys and traditional creams, towards warmer neutral stone tones. This trend is all about creating warm cocooning spaces that feel intimate, inviting and familiar with consumers embracing warmer, more natural colors.' explains Ruth Mottershead, Creative Director at Little Greene.

'Earthy, stonier tones alongside soft welcoming greens are becoming increasingly popular, providing a restful alternative to cooler choices. These gentle neutrals can be used in all areas of the home adding warmth as well as a sophisticated, complementary canvas for fabrics, wallcoverings, and furnishings from all genres. '

20. Bold hued furniture

(Image credit: Future / Damien Russel)

If bright colors spark joy for you - but going bold on the walls feels too much - choose strong colors on furniture pieces instead. This is a really easy way to create impact without color overpowering the space. 

A color that we love right now, and is back a sure comeback this year, is a primary red. It's bright but the clean notes in the red makes it feel vintage and therefore timeless amongst modern interiors.

The search for color solutions is intended to solve not only the task of approaching fashion trends. It is important for each person to express their own preferences and create an atmosphere of comfort and coziness while observing the norms of aesthetics and harmony.

Modern interior often involves an organic combination of color elements typical of different styles. The subsequent operations practiced in the improvement of any premises depend on this, for example:

  1. Layout with installation of partitions, coordinated transfer of walls;
  2. Zoning of the surrounding space by different methods;
  3. Selection of furniture, decoration, lighting, textiles.

The variant of decorating a room in one particular style is gradually going out of fashion. Designers prefer projects with an organic combination of elements from different stylistic trends.

The elegant sound of the sand palette looks noble, restrained and cozy. nine0077
  3. Cream tone, which is preferred by people who value classics, comfort, balance, can dominate the space, but will require darker neighboring accents, such as bronze or chestnut.

An important role is played by personal preferences and ideas about comfort and coziness.
