The Top Color Trends for 2020

One of the simplest ways to refresh your space is by switching up the color palette, and we’re here to show you some of 2020’s trendiest tones.

Whether you’re into cool, muted colors, deep jewel tones, or surprising pops of brightness, we’ve compiled some of our favorite interior design color trends to help you shake up your space. Keep reading to see which popular colors are on our radar for 2020.

Forest Green

This chic shade of dark green provides the perfect balance of earthiness and glamour, making it suitable for spaces of any style. Try bold paint against crisp, white trim or create a statement wall with deep green wallpaper.

If you’d rather incorporate the trend sparingly, use as an accent color against a neutral backdrop to add just the right amount of drama.

Rusty Orange

A delightfully spicy complement to neutral shades such as brown, gray, and cream, rusty orange provides an eye-catching pop of color without overpowering the rest of the room.

Incorporate the color with a single statement piece or small accents throughout the room – we love the look of a rusty sofa or ottoman against a neutral backdrop, and throws, vases, and table lamps add just the right amount of brightness.

To make an even bolder statement, try rusty orange wallpaper with neutral furniture and décor.

Sage

This season’s most popular neutral colors are a bit of a departure from traditional hues such as brown, gray, and white. This subtle shade of green is a little on the gray side, providing a fresh pop of greenery without adding too much brightness.

We love the white-on-sage look; green accents in a mostly-white room keep the space from looking too sterile, while white furniture and décor against a sage wall look totally chic.

Thanks to the cool undertones of sage, it also looks right at home alongside shades of blue and purple.

Mustard

’70s-inspired shades continue to trend in 2020, and this updated answer to vintage “harvest gold” is perfect for adding sunny cheer to your space. Deeper and more muted than true yellow or canary, this shade strikes the perfect balance between bright and unassuming.

Mustard provides a bold pop of color when used in accent pieces, but is also neutral enough to use on the walls. Combine with shades of white and gray for a well-balanced look, or make a bold statement by pairing it with trending tones such as navy or forest green.

Classic Blue

As Pantone’s 2020 Color of the Year, this enduring dusky blue proves that the basics never go out of style.

Both bold and familiar, this versatile shade can serve as a pop of color in light, neutral spaces, or as a subtle backdrop for contrasting accent colors.

Add a striking blue accent chair to a minimalist white living room for a modern look, or take your space in a slightly nautical direction by pairing with shades of red, white, or orange.
