When it comes to colour in our homes, we often look for a neutral colour that can carry us around the space. For 2023, a new colour is joining the team and it’s a comforting and earthy hue perfect for embracing the year to come.
Welcome Sherwin-Williams Colour of the Year for 2023, Redend Point (SW 9081)!
We’re loving this colour choice for colour of the year for 2023 for so many reasons:
Comforting and Earthy
The colour itself feels like it could be a warm desert clay bringing you a sense of calm.
"Redend Point was inspired by the idea of finding beauty beyond ourselves. It is a heartening hue that invites compassion and connection into any space," said Sue Wadden, director of colour marketing at Sherwin-Williams. "The colour is a natural choice for those looking for a warm and joyful neutral in both interiors and exteriors. Redend Point is a beautiful colour, and I can't wait to see how consumers play with it and style their spaces.”
Embraces Versatility
The warmth and intrigue of Redend Point makes it ridiculously versatile. The colour embraces versatility like all good neutrals before it. It can go from walls to cupboards, to décor, to well…anything.
"Redend Point's subtle pink undertones make it easy to incorporate into any space. It delivers an enveloping warmth that instantly makes you feel at home," Wadden said. "Build on its earthiness by utilizing the hue alongside natural-looking textiles and wood accents or create a desert oasis by layering terracotta shades and clay materials."
Cozy yet Minimal
When we think of a minimalist interior, we think of sparse. Redend Point’s subtle neutrality and inviting warmth allows you to feel cozy without an excess of clutter. It’s a calm and clean neutral colour for your home décor to embrace in 2023. Interestingly, the colour experts at Sherwin-Williams are celebrating the colour as great for both our homes and communal gathering spaces in the community.
"There is no commercial setting more central to the concept of beauty beyond ourselves than community gathering spaces. Whether that is a restaurant, office or multifamily building, this hue adds the feeling of restoration that encourages connection to both ourselves and others," Wadden said.
With a colour as warm and versatile as Redend Point, how do you think you will incorporate it into your home?
