Trending Hues That Will Upgrade Your Rooms This Year

A refined, greyed sage is atmospheric and easy to live with — a true colour chameleon that shifts with natural light. Use the hue in a living room to inject a calming energy, or try it in a narrow hallway to create a feeling of expansiveness.

Artist’s White

Finding the perfect white is a designer obsession. A true bright white, Ultra Pure White is a clean slate — pair it with white oak floors and millwork, or use it as a gallery- like backdrop for colourful art and objets.

Chestnut Revival

Earthy browns are having a renaissance after years of being muscled out by grey. For a warm, enveloping effect, try colour drenching a room in a chestnut hue. Elderton, Graham & Brown’s 2025 Colour of the Year, is inspired by the chocolatey leaves of an elder tree in fall and provides an elegant backdrop for wood furniture.
