NEW PAINT<br />
STYLES<br />
ABOVE Contrasting colors on<br />
molding and other features can<br />
brighten a room.<br />
One of the best ways to freshen up a home is with a new coat of paint. It<br />
doesn’t have to be white (or ecru or cream or eggshell or any of the other<br />
whites out there). A pop of color makes for a happy home, and paint<br />
companies are already making predictions for what will be hot in 2019.<br />
Sherwin-Williams announced its predictions for 2019 with its Colormix<br />
Color Forecast. The forty-two colors are organized into six palettes, from<br />
the Wanderer—earthy colors that echo the adobe homes and sun-drenched<br />
canyons of the Southwest—to the Naturalist, with its garden-inspired greens<br />
and mushroom tones. One thing that connects all the palettes? Versatile<br />
neutrals connect with a splash of bright color to liven up your surroundings.<br />
Pantone Color Institute recently issued seventy-two colors it believes will<br />
trend in 2019. Two palettes the institute believes will be a hit are the Cravings<br />
palette, a series of warm, deep purples, reds and oranges, and Classico, with<br />
golds, deep jewel tones and neutrals that will never go out of style.<br />
Once you have your color palette ready, consider painting your ceiling.<br />
Sure, you’ve been told color on the ceiling will make the room feel smaller—<br />
but done correctly, it can add drama and energy to a room. Use a contrasting<br />
color if you have crown molding or other features, or paint the ceiling the<br />
same color as the walls to envelop the room—but do this with a more neutral<br />
color, or risk feeling stifled.<br />
