Bringing depth and energy to a space, Benjamin Moore’s 2018 Colour of the Year and accompanying Colour Trends palette demonstrate how to bring a minimalist scheme to life. Adorning the walls of a stunning mid-century modern home, the revitalising red tone that embodies Benjamin Moore’s colour of the year, Caliente, injects a confidence and playful feel into this pared back property. Complemented by a colourful yet neutral palette, the pure lines and crisp geometry of the contemporary interior are accentuated by the combination of uplifting shades.

Just a little bit of red can go a long way. Whether set against warm wood grains or statement exposed brick fireplaces, the way a red is paired with other colours and surroundings prevent the colour looking dated and instead ensure it looks energetic and modern. Incorporating a full spectrum of reds, from hints of blush to deep oxbloods, the 2018 palette offers beautiful colour pairings with a carefully curated range of colour neutrals, complementary bold hues and pale shades.

Underpinning all of the fantastic Benjamin Moore product lines is the proprietary Gennex® Waterborne colourant technology. All Benjamin Moore paints are custom mixed, giving customers access to an unrivalled palette of colours. Gennex® colourants fortify the paint to enhance colour durability for a long lasting and resilient finish. www.benjaminmoorepaint.co.uk PRESS CONTACT If you would like to receive further information, high res images or expert comment please contact Gemma Kaiser at In The White Room: gemma@inthewhiteroom.com T: 01892 511 867 IMAGE CAPTIONS 1.
