This choice reinforces that green is having its moment. October Mist was chosen as the color of the year from the color trends palette for 2022. This palette includes a range of 14 colors varying from whimsical, meditative and eclectic. But, one overarching theme of the color palettes is the strong prominence of green.
While October Mist is a mid-tone within the palette 2022s color palette also offers deep tones such as Gloucester Sage and lighter tones like Morning Dew. These colors all offer a versatile and natural element for your space and can be incorporated into almost any room.
Green hues are known for being a relatable color that everyone has a connection with. In color psychology green can produce strong emotions and associations with nature.
This can produce positive emotional responses. Such as feelings of growth, abundance, refreshment, peace and security.
With so many shades and hues it provides an extremely flexible color and can act as a neutral to replace the greys and whites that have been very present in recent years. That is why this year we will be going green with our color choices and bringing in more natural elements into our spaces.
