As we approach the end of 2021, we begin to anticipate the upcoming mood for interiors. With color being one of the integral foundations of design, Benjamin Moore releases its annual Color Trends Palette, including a featured color. This October, the paint company deems October Mist as the color for 2022. The serene yet dynamic hue offers a multitude of possibilities. Reminiscent of the silver-green of a stem, the muted sage provides a rich naturalness to any space. Andrea Magno, director of color marketing and development at Benjamin Moore, emphasizes the versatility of October Mist. It can either present more green or gray depending on the context, representing the transitory stage the world is currently experiencing.
