#Deep Blue

This year dramatic, inky blues will be everywhere. 2023 will be filled with rich, regal shades of dark blue. These beautiful, deep oceanic tones are great when used in a tonally immersive way – matching colors on walls, furniture, and fabrics. Blue hues also look great together and can offer a great scope for pattern mixing. This means you can easily combine some deep blue walls with a lighter shade of blue striped curtains. When it comes to where to use this color, designers suggest the living room, as it can create a calm and elegant finish to this usually busy space.

#Rich Neutrals

Oooooh, we love this trend. There is nothing more inviting than a hot cup of cocoa, or a nice caramel latte, or some maple-syrup drenched pancakes. That’s why it’s no surprise that such colors will be dominating in this new year. Rich neutrals have been all over social media lately, and it’s easy to see why. They look stunning and create a more personal and cozy atmosphere, unlike the more impersonal whites.

#Color Drenching

Color drenching will be seen in almost every room – the bedroom, the kitchen, the living room and so on. This process involves adding deep, moody tones of colors everywhere into a space. Going all in makes the space feel more dramatic, yet still warm and welcoming. It’s like getting a hug from a color. Designers recommend using a satin finish for this method. It still has a shine, but without being overwhelming.

#Citrus

2023 is not scared to go big when it comes to color choices. While neutrals will be popular, do not think that bold colors won’t make an appearance. Bright colors like citrus will e making a big impact in the home. Even small additions of this color can help bring excitement to a space without being too overwhelming. When this color is used on a specific wall or area it helps to define the space. And the best thing about this color is that it looks good matched with pretty much any other color.

#Hand Painted Murals

This year is all about personality. We are saying goodbye to matching furniture sets and basic decorations. This is because in making your home feel personal, individuality, and creativity are key. And what better way to achieve this and create an inexpensive focal point than painting your very own mural. You can use pastel hues to fill the room with uplifting energy and flowing shapes to give it a sense of fluidity.
