Visions of Violet

Visions of Violet The highly anticipated Pantone 2018 Shade of the Year is here, and also their pick is Ultra Violet! Pantone says the colour (18-3838) communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future. Our editors have mixed feelings relating to it.



Essence of Empowerment The color is both feminine and bold, which produces a perfect combo for a girl's bedroom such as this one envisioned where it (and she) can be friendly and fierce at the exact same moment.



A Shade That Rules Ultra Violet is ideal for making an unexpected statement in almost any area, even the kitchen. Purple has historically become the colour of royalty, and it may seem so regal and stylish and amazing at precisely the same time.



Dive Into the Darkness With Deep Onyx Proceed over millennial pink, we are onto bigger, better and darker things. Glidden's 2018 Color of the Year is Deep Onyx (00NN 07/000)-- better called classic black. This most beloved neutral could be intimidating at first, but paired with crisp white furniture and metallic house accents, black walls might become a staple in creating the modern home of your dreams.



Paint the Town Black If you're struggling on picking a wall color for your space, take some advice from the Rolling Stones and "Paint It Black" Using a black such as Deep Onyx from floor to ceiling is the perfect way to add modern style to any bedroom, without being too overpowering. The darkness of the walls paired with light wood furniture and bright decorations creates a contrast that is just to-die-for.



Create a Bold, Modern Contrast By pairing this lavish black accent wall with white linens, neutral fittings and tiled, coordinating throw pillows, this contemporary bedroom becomes a dreamy, minimalist harbor. Add some greenery and faux fur for that excess dash of mid-mod flair.



Spice up Your Spaces with Caliente Another bold accession to the 2018 Shade of the Year family is Benjamin Moore's radiant, lush Caliente (AF-290). According to colour experts, this bright red colour is paired best with visionary, peachy tones, so don't throw your millennial pink throw pillows just yet!



Create a Bold Statement Best used as a daring accent color, bright reds will surely shine in almost any space. Pair with neutrals to play it safe, or blend with other bright hues to create a fun, lively living space. For a chic, modern look, use crisp white linens and furniture to make your red walls pop.



Seeing Red The energy of crimson inspires imagination and easily becomes the focal point of any room. Utilize this lavish color to ensemble an otherwise plain gallery wall or dress up a drab staircase to your ultimate home makeover.



Turn Wanderlust Into Decor With Oceanside Described by its creators as, "a complicated, deep color that offers a sense of the familiar with a hint of the unknown," Sherwin Williams' Oceanside (SW 6496) is the true colour of wanderlust. Inspired by ideas of experiences in far-off areas and fantasies of tropical vacations, this rich, blue-green colour is destined to become a star in 2018.



Insert Orientation Flair to Every Space Whether you are outfitting an entire living space or dressing up the family bathroom, a bright blue color is a perfect colour to make a bold, fun statement in any space-- no matter the size. Throw this vibrant turquoise on any wall to make a tropical getaway in the comfort of your own home.



A Picture-Perfect Accent Shade If covering an entire room with a bright blue is a little too over-the-top to your taste, this charming shade also creates a perfect accent shade. Add a colorful front doorway to liven up your home's entryway, or perhaps paint some old furniture to create a colorful contrast in rooms that are otherwise plain.



Live in the Moment Taking a step back from the daring and moving more into the serene, Behr's From the Moment (T18-15) adds some coastal calmness into the 2018 Shade of the Year family. According to the color experts, "this comfortable color evokes a feeling of sanctuary and relaxation amid our busy, always-on lives."



A Perfect Fit For Every Space Whether you desire a beachy escape or a rustic farmhouse look, this light blue color can match any flavor. Paired finest with crisp whites and neutrals, this comfy spruce blue is an excellent choice for virtually any space. Throw in some greenery to include even more freshness to the general appearance.



Versatility and Tranquility Paired with black wood furniture, light linens and crisp house accents, a calming blue can flip a dingy bedroom to the perfect tranquil hideaway. A complete mixture of soft green and blue, this colour is just as much versatile as it's cool and calm.
