Room Goals Inspired By Behr’s 2020 Color Of The Year

Details

Behr Paint’s 2020 Color of the Year, Back To Nature S340-4, pictured here, nods to nature while acting subtle enough to serve as a neutral.

Reminiscent of rolling hills and verdant meadows, Behr Paint’s 2020 Color of the Year encourages a deeper connection to our environment. The recently announced hue, Back To Nature S340-4, is a slightly yellow-based green meant to impart a sense of peace within the home. Incorporate what’s being billed as “nature’s favorite color” into your home by drawing inspiration from these similarly hued spaces and accent pieces.

Rather than renovate, “we painted the kitchen because the owner was afraid a new kitchen would look too modern,” designer Daniela Saliba explains, adding the space’s cabinets were originally a cherry hue. The window valance was made with an embroidered fabric from Wall Boutique. (Tour the home.)

FIT FOR A QUEEN
