Planning a home renovation in 2022? If you are looking for some colors to try, and don’t feel like the color of the year – Very Peri, or earthy tones but want something different for an accent, here are the most popular other colors for 2022.
Sunny Yellow
In 2022, we’ll relish brighter colors that herald a return to normality. The sunny and uncomplicated yellow is perfect for embracing this – whilst bold, it never feels garish or overpowering. Named after the distinctive color of the leather slippers worn by men in Morocco – babouche, this shade of yellow can be described as ‘subdued sunshine.’ Despite its bold hue, it’s not overly bright or overpowering, making it perfect for a larger room, where its cheerfulness will intensify. In terms of décor, opt for more minimalist companions, such as simplistic line drawings, or unobtrusive bright shades. This buttery yellow can help to brighten a space with limited natural light, and when you consider the color wheel, this particular shade would sit well with a pale blue or a soft pink/red.

Green
In lockdown, many of us spent much of our time reconnecting with our gardens and falling back in love with nature. This shade complements plants, whether art-depicted, or real, and would work well to promote a sense of wellbeing within the home. Beautiful and soothing greens and especially soft pale greens are perfect to style your space and make it very welcoming and inviting. This color can be applied to your home decor along with going for biophilic design, which is another hot trend for home decor – this way you will create a very comfortable ambience.

Deep Aubergine
We are loving the mixed use of almost black hues. Instead of always using traditional black, we like to add a twist by utilizing colors such as a deep and dark aubergine. The use of dark hues can be incorporated into interiors anywhere from dark terrazzo floors to dark walls. This monochromatic design element incorporates a sensuous sophistication when blended with neutral furnishings and textiles adding a bold, yet classic aesthetic to any design. Voila, these are the trendiest colors for 2022, besides warm neutrals, earthy tones and periwinkle, mix them all up or go for some of them to make your home styling super trendy and edgy!
