There seems to be a number of changes taking place in color families, and combinations of color. Blue has taken the throne away from green as one of the year's hottest color palettes. Blue fits into the category of calming colors that cool and refresh the spirit. Blues that are associated with the colors of water are definitely on the rise. The ocean is the new frontier for living and life-sustaining food, water and medicine.
Water is the final evolution of nature's influence on the world's color palettes.
Blue and yellow combinations,while not new, continue to be the leading bedding color combination. Basil, thyme, curry. Golds are on the rise, and russets continue to be important. Red has arrived on the scene in an array of shades and hues. Several of the new reds are Australian in influence.
