2017 Color of the Year



The the new color from Benjamin Moore, Shadow 2117-30



It is rich, with a slight purple undertone.  Reminds me of a color found in nature.  In the sky, or rocks, or flowers.


How would you use it?

 In a foyer, with artwork hanging against it?
Maybe in a powder room, with a gold framed mirror.

 It would be stunning in a bedroom, with neutral bedding, 
and shabby chic furnishings.

Our homes say alot about who we are.     At this time of year, we make changes to accommodate our holiday furnishings.  We might do something big, like repaint a room, or just add some accessories to freshen things up.
