2023 Global Color Trends Forecast

Resilience, the need for connection and inspiration from nature were recurring themes at the Global Color Workshop. This annual event brings together more than 30 global color stylists from the automotive, consumer electronics, aerospace, and home paint and stain industries. Over the course of several days, the stylists analyze the runway, lifestyles, demographics, geographies, global events and cross-cultural societal inspirations to determine what colors will resonate and represent that year, including the 2023 Color of the year. 


The mid-tone neutral was designed to evoke feelings of rest and relaxation.

One of the easiest ways to elevate the look of your home without going through a remodel is by refreshing it with a coat of paint. But with so many colors to choose from, how do you select one that's right for you, while still staying up to date with today's trends? Sherwin Williams just made the choice easier: The paint brand has announced its 2023 color of the year, Redend Point, a mid-tone neutral that walks the line between blush and beige.

The color is a new-age neutral that aims to bring nature indoors—and it's versatile enough to complement a range of décor styles and furnishing choices. And while it can serve as a grounding anchor in a room, Redend Point feels cozier and more inviting than traditional white or eggshell, making it the ultimate choice for people who love the classics, but are craving something new.

"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 color marketing at Sherwin-Williams in a press release. "The color is a natural choice for those looking for a warm and joyful neutral in both interiors and exteriors. I can't wait to see how consumers play with it and style their spaces."

Doing so is easy, thanks to Redend Point's subtle pink undertones; these notes blend well with a mix of shades, especially those that feel nature-derived. "Build on its earthiness by utilizing the hue alongside natural-looking textiles and wood accents—or create a desert oasis by layering terra-cotta shades and clay materials," says Wadden.

The color is part of Sherwin Williams' colormix forecast, which features 40 trending colors across four curated palettes that are all inspired by the natural interweaving of people and their spaces. In the coming year, the brand expects to see more shades like Redend Point—include natural clays, sunbaked sands, restful neutrals, and powdery pastels—dominate design trend reports.

It’s time to look at the color trends for 2023. The colors we use in our homes strongly reflect our personalities and style. While some people gravitate towards timeless and classic paint colors others want to go a bit bolder by adding vibrant color tones to their homes.

Each year, the color experts from all the leading paint brands in the world chose their Color of the Year and publish their Color Forecast. Often choosing one trending color accompanied by a color palette with hues that perfectly compliment the Color of the Year.  

These trending paint colors don’t only show up as wall colors in our homes. But they are visible in every art form,  from fashion to graphic design and even technology. This year we see richer color tones compared to last years color trends, but we’re still getting color inspiration from nature.

The Nordroom’s Color Trend for 2023: (Warm) Yellow

As editor of The Nordroom, I see many beautifully styled homes and trending interior design. The time we live in at the moment is rather uncertain. And this is reflected in the interior design and colors we choose to surround ourselves with. And for 2023 I see strong gravitation toward warm colors, especially warm yellow tones.

Yellow – as any color – comes in many different color shades. From the very light pastel yellow to a deep ochre yellow. And it’s the warm yellow tones that are popping up more frequently in homes around the world.

These deep and rich colors add a warm and slightly earthy tone to a room. A warm yellow is also very versatile. In modern homes, it adds warmth and color. And for period homes it enhances the historic feeling of the home as it’s a shade that has been used in homes for centuries.
