To create the proper balance between tranquility and excitement, mix and match colors from Pantone's spring and summer 2022 color trend predictions.

 

Colors that pop

Color trends for 2022

Pantone's trend report's classic colors of red, yellow, and blue, create a lively, vintage mood. Make a bold statement with a vibrant red that connects us to the spontaneity of a spring garden or add a ray of hope with yellow that connects us to the spontaneity of a spring garden. The two warmer tones are tempered by a dazzling royal blue, which creates a lovely balance.

Easy-to-swap-in accessories and accent furniture will bring these lively hues to life against a backdrop of crisp white walls.

 

Neutrals

Color trends for 2022

Chocolate brown, sandy beige, and mild grey are classic neutrals that never go out of style. Walls or furnishings in familiar tones that convey the soothing comfort of a warm, inviting beach or a creamy coffee color create a pleasant, inviting atmosphere in living rooms and entryways.

Apply dark grey to walls for a moodier vibe in bedrooms and other relaxing places or go for the clean simplicity of White to lighten things up.

 

Delightful Pastels

Color trends for 2022

Accent colors in soft, sweet pastels are charmingly playful. Pink from Pantone adds cozy warmth to bedrooms and living rooms, while bright blue looks crisp and refreshing in bathrooms and kitchens.

To avoid a too saccharine impact, use them in areas that receive a lot of natural light and combine plenty of natural textures such as woven textiles and wood furniture.

 

Nature Inspired

Color trends for 2022

Nature-inspired colors of blue and green are also included in the palette forecast. To portray a sense of serenity and quiet, a cold, mid-tone blue replicates the color of frozen water. It's an excellent choice for creating a relaxing atmosphere in a living room or bedroom.

To highlight a focus on wellbeing, a soft, muted green was chosen, which works well in health-focused locations like kitchens, gym areas, or restrooms. Use a deep teal on the walls or cabinetry for added drama.
