The color red is typically used to portray passion and vibrancy, it tends to scream “Look at me! Here I am!” However, Sherwin Williams’ 2023 Color of the Year is a subdued, earthy shade of red– bordering on pink depending on who you ask– that is cozier and inviting, making it far easier to pair with things in your home than the lively hue we’re used to. Redend Point (SW9081) is a truly versatile color, working pretty much anywhere in your home– from kitchen to bedroom!
The Living Room
While still inviting and cozy, Redend Point somehow manages to avoid looking dark and suffocating when it’s used as a primary wall color. While most darker hues tend to make rooms look smaller and closed off, this beautiful color makes this living room look charming and welcoming. Coupled with the minimalist cream-colored furniture and warm natural wood, it’s a boho-chic utopia!
The Bedroom
Still not sure about coating your whole house in this amazing color? Redend Point is also the perfect shade to add as an accent color. Take this gorgeous room by Thistlewood Farms. The striped wall behind the beds helps to bring this otherwise neutral bedroom to life, while not taking away from the beautiful simplicity of the rest of the room.
The Kitchen
A recent survey of 2,000 Americans posted in the NY Post found that most American adults spend around 400 hours annually in the kitchen. That’s a lot of time to spend somewhere, especially if your kitchen is unwelcoming and just functional. Personally, I’ve always loved neutral counters and appliances paired with colorful cabinets. It adds the perfect amount of color without being overwhelming. Although Redend Point tends to lean more towards the boho/rustic aesthetic, the rose gold handles and modern bar stools help bring an air of sophistication and grace to this kitchen.
Sherwin Williams describes this autumnal hue as “minimal yet cozy… a comforting backdrop for the everyday moments that matter.” It’s a color that blends into the background while laughing around the dinner table, but still catches your eye when you walk by to grab a glass of water. If you’re looking to add some inviting warmth into your home, the 2023 Color of the Year is for you!
