Caliente, by Benjamin Moore 

Are you looking for something strong, radiant, and full of energy? Look no further than Benjamin Moore’s 2018 color of the year: Caliente. According to Ellen O’Neil, of Benjamin Moore & Co.: “Caliente is the signature color of a modern architectural masterpiece; a lush carpet rolled out for a grand arrival; the assured backdrop for a book-lined library; a powerful first impression on a glossy front door. The eye can’t help but follow its bold strokes.”

Hawthorn Rose is as if pink grew up, went to university, and is now a career-driven business woman taking the world by storm. According to Pantone Color Institute executive director, Leatrice Eiseman, “Pink has developed more power than ever before.”

Overjoy, by Sherwin Williams 

Cheerful, warm, and not taking itself too seriously, are three ways in which to accurately describe Overjoy, a hue from the “connectivity” color pallet by Sherwin Williams. The warmth in the hue makes it one that pairs well with wood accents and earthy tones.
