2023 Color of the Year by Sherwin-Williams: Redend Point
Interior home design has seen a continued trend toward warmer neutral color tones. This movement is indicative of homeowners’ desire to invoke emotion through color rather than selecting hues for their aesthetic impact alone. Reinforcing this trend, Sherwin-Williams recently announced Redend Point SW 9081, a mid-tone neutral, as their 2023 Color of the Year. We asked Sue Wadden, director of color marketing at Sherwin-Williams, to help us examine this “soulful-yet-subtle hue” that is taking its place within a much larger movement in interior design.
What is Redend Point?
Part of the Nexus Palette in Sherwin-Williams’s 2023 Colormix Forecast, Redend Point celebrates restorative energy, well-being and kindness. “If beige could blush, this is the color it would be,” Wadden shares. Employing pink undertones that evoke a sense of tenderness and warmth, Redend Point creates an intimate backdrop that is easy to incorporate into any living space.
What Colors Pair Well with Redend Point?
While the qualities of Redend Point allow it to pair nicely with a variety of companion colors, the experts at Sherwin-Williams recommend combining the color with other neutrals to create a warm, inviting ambiance that feels both refined and energizing. There are a variety of complementary neutrals from Sherwin-Williams that pair well with The Color of The Year, including Urbane Bronze SW 7048, Pure White SW 7005, Cool Beige SW 9086, Foothills SW 7514, Hushed Auburn SW 9080, Toile Red SW 0006, Carnelian SW 7580 and Malted Milk SW 6057.
How to Style Redend Point?
From the kitchen to the primary bedroom suite, there are endless opportunities to breathe life into your luxury home with Redend Point. One way to maximize the effectiveness of the color is to pair it with design elements such as wood accents, natural textiles, clay materials, and other earthy features. By doing so, homeowners can create a grounded living space that showcases an energetic personality.
