The overall top color for this year is Vintage Wine, confirmed by Benjamin Moore and shown here in this photo.
Benjamin Moore also presents their 2011 color palette which offers bright earth tones.
Another color featured this year is a rich yellowish green which ICI Dulux celebrates here.
Finally, Pantone offers it's color of the year. First it is shown in fashion, but decor follows fashion so you're likely to see this bright Honeysuckle appearing in accents, linens, draperies and more soon.
These colors are certainly showing a transition from the deeper golds and red earth tones of a few years back, adding more clarity to the colors and more vivid shades.
Vintage is really a good color. It is really eye pleasing one. It definitely gives a fabulous look to the painted area. I have visited 2011 color palette also. It is quite interesting. All the other declarations of color are also interesting that you have shared here.

Does it also apply to the exterior, particularly the roofing? I think the color palette for this year is more elegant than last year's. Our house in Omaha, NE was all tinged-neutral with bright colors like green and yellow (my wife's love for interiors) as we followed Pantone's 2010 color directions.

With the influx of top designer colors, the homeowner gains a lot of options on which color to use next, but there is still the question of "Will this color look harmonious to my furniture or my roofing?" beating our heads. That's why, it is best to take your time or find a friend that knows color harmony, so you won't regret your decision when you had it painted by your contractor, and in my case, I did what I've stated above when working on my home in Vancouver.

I agree, vintage is just such a classy traditional color, it gives this woody luxury to it that I just can't place my finger on.

Cool! I've been looking forward to remodel some of the rooms in our house here in Minneapolis. I'll be asking for the help of the remodeling and designing experts for this project. That's a nice color, by the way. I love the color name, too! Vintage Wine, huh. I guess I'll be using that color for one of the rooms.

Vintage wine color gives a cozy feeling in that room. With proper blend and accent, a room can be turned into a classy one. Having a top-of- the- line interior doesn't necessarily need expensive furniture. It just takes a skilled and creative person to make a room as sophisticated as this one.

I agree, vintage look is very unusual. :)

When it comes to decorating make a new difference to it there is no limitation when it comes to put a new ambiance n your home. Finding the perfect color that will suit in your home theme is not quite tough to think that you can't have a certain ambiance or result if your decorating color do not vary in your home decor.

Unless you are one of the few fortunate ones who have managed to land a spacious loft style apartment you are probably starting out in a tiny apartment because it’s the only thing you can afford. There are ways to decorate your small apartment and prevent the space from feeling claustrophobic and cramped.

I love the color selection in the photo. Some people are afraid to go with such bold colors, but the ones who do are almost always satisfied with their decision every time they step into the room!

Wow! Vintage colors for your furniture sound nice. It can give your house a classic look; well that depends on what kind of furniture. Maybe changing the colors in my house is good once in a while, since I was thinking of changing them, anyways.

And that surely counts! Pretty much classic look! I would say, that choice of color is great, very trendy and attractive. Truly, your work is worth appreciating!

The painter used earthy colors, which made it more relaxing to look at. Most colors coordinate with the earth tone, so this is a good choice.

I'm speechless for your ceiling. It shines like a diamond! What's the color of your roof? I painted mine with white 'coz I'm going green!
Posted by: Lino Kosters | November 28, 2011 at 09:07 AM
It looks classy. I'm thinking about remodeling my house, and this can be a great color for my living room. I wonder what color they are considering for roofs. :)
