The 3 Hottest New Colours In Home Decor For 2020
Each year, a new crop of colours start popping up on our radar around the holiday season, making it easy to predict what the hottest shades will be for the months ahead. 2020 is shaping up to be a cozy year, with barely there pinks, '90s-inspired terracotta hues and rich mustards seen on everything from fashion accessories to paint swatches. But switching things up doesn't have to mean repainting the house or reupholstering a sofa—adding a few well-chosen accessories to a room can transform its look and make it feel fresh again. Here, we share the colours trends that will be everywhere in 2020 and the best accessories to work them into your decor on a budget.
Trend: Pale Pinks
This pale and dusty pink has stolen the spotlight from its Millennial counterpart—and it’s quickly becoming a new neutral, showing up in furniture, homewares and accessories. The proof this shade should be on your radar? Benjamin Moore named First Light as their Colour of the Year for 2020. This soft and livable pink hue is perfect to add a nice glow to a powder room or home office.
Trend: Rust Hues & Terracotta Tones
As part of the ongoing ’90s revival, terracotta, rust and rich maroon have made a huge comeback. These colours are easy to mix and match and look good in any room. To give your decor a chic twist, try pairing rust and terracotta accessories with a navy colour scheme.
Trend: Rich Mustards
Mustard hues have been popping up everywhere lately, and we expect to see more of this cheery shade over the next year. A bright pop of yellow is an easy way to give your decor a bold update, and it only take a couple of accessories to create a whole new look.
