Behr Reveals 2020 Color Trends Palette

Behr Paint has unveiled its 2020 Color Trends Palette: a balanced mix of grounding shades, energizing bright colors, deep accent hues and atmospheric pastels, developed for both residential and commercial applications. This new palette of 15 approachable colors, told in three stories—Worldhood, Restore and Atmospheric is small compared to the recent palettes releases by Pantone and Sherwin-Williams for 2020.

According to Behr, the colors reflect consumers’ longing for more well-rounded lives. “2020 marks the start of a new decade, and with that comes a desire for balance—both at home and at work,” Erika Woelfel, vice president of color and creative services at Behr.

Worldhood 


These rich hues offer depth and brightness, providing a rooted and connected experience while deepening the overall warmth of a space. “Colors within Worldhood create an inviting environment, perfect for the hospitality industry,” says Woelfel. “Customers of restaurants, hotels and other businesses will feel drawn to the rustic tones inspired by exotic travels that reflect natural rugged landscapes.”
