2012 Color Trends

We may not be able to change the world on our own but we can take small steps, like planting a seed in a pot and helping it to grow. This theme highlights a personal connection to and awareness of how our actions affect the world around us. The need to care for our environment isn’t new, but what is growing is our desire to personally relate to nature by inviting it into our homes – even on a small scale. Inspired by the process of photosynthesis, popular colours in this group include garden greens like Sico’s Namibian Desert (6142-74), dark soil browns like Pen and Ink (6206-73) and pastel blues like Lunar Month (6009-21). By surrounding ourselves with colours that remind us of earth, water and clay, we are comforted by the notion that nature will help us if we help it.
