After taking an intimate look at the home – where life begins in the kitchen and breathes vitality into the other rooms – Benjamin Moore has announced its 2021 Color of the Year as Aegean Teal 2136-40.
Blending the soothing properties of blue, the renewal qualities of green, and the organic sensibility of grey, Aegean Teal 2136-40 invites us to reflect and reset from all we’ve been through this past year.
A bridge between cooler and warmer colors, this exceptional hue creates natural harmony and is rooted in the elegant, handspun textures of the home and celebrates the small, simple moments in life.
“Amid uncertainty, people yearn for stability. The colors we surround ourselves with can have a powerful impact on our emotions and wellbeing,” says AndreaMagno, Benjamin Moore Director of Color Marketing and Development.
“Aegean Teal and the corresponding Color Trends 2021 palette express a welcoming, lived-in quality that celebrated the connections and real moments that take place within the home.”
