Colours for Your Home 2008

Benjamin Moore's 2008 Colours for Your Home reflects an enhanced consciousness of our surroundings, a greater awareness to our sense of space, both personal and communal. Expressed in three beautiful palettes: Modern Tranquility, Organic Comfort and Pure Opulence, you can pick up Colours for Your Home today at our store.

Home is an oasis of renewal. Haven, sanctuary, refuge - home is a wellspring of replenishment, a soothing respite from modern day clamour. A gossamer palette of hushed neutral hues evokes a sense of spaciousness with its quiet suggestion of colour. Clean lines, sumptuous textures and translucent elements that capture and reflect light, bestow spaces a luminous weightlessness that is both calming and expansive.

The repetitive cycle of nature comforts through its rhythmic essence. Environmentally astute, we seek to create spaces that shelter and integrate us within the environment, rather than from it. The tactile qualities of raw silk, linen, bamboo, and stone engage our senses with an organic aesthetic. The colour palette is a celebration of nature's own; earthen hues with golden, sunlit undertones, deep, rich bark with fresh sprigs of green peppered throughout.

Deep within the earth's core lay the elements for some of its most vibrant palettes. Rich, mineral hues polished to gem-like brilliance. These are colours that make a statement, whether tucked in a wall niche or announcing their presence in a grand entrance. Equally dramatic and playful, these colours seamlessly showcase stunning architecture and room accents as easily as they can perform as a design element in their own right; a daring vision of breathtaking colour splendour.
