The Colors Work On Many Surfaces

Walls, ceilings, trim, floors, furniture, cabinets and accessories — no matter what you're painting, the colors, expertly selected for each collection, work beautifully together.

Coordination Boosts Confidence

"More and more people are becoming confident in their ability to create designer-look rooms all on their own," says Jackie. "Painting walls vibrant colors can be a way for your home to reflect your personality — and it's easy to try something new."

Inspiration Translates to Color Choices

What catches your eye? The sky, a seashell, a car, an outfit, flowers? What's your favorite place? Take note and a pattern will emerge. Notice the colors you love, and then choose the palette(s) in this collection to make your home your favorite place.

You're Not Stuck in Neutral

Each collection features neutral options, but quiet background choices don't have to mean boring spaces. You have the freedom to choose as few or as many and as calm or as bright colors as you wish. No matter how you combine them, you'll always have a perfect palette.

The Color Collections Are Design Guides

Colors within each of the eight collections work beautifully together, no matter how many or how few you select. Pull the hues into window treatments, pillows, fabrics, area rugs and accessories or update the look of furniture with a fresh coat of paint.

You Can Start Small

Paint a dresser, chairs, desk, bookcase or picture frames with a color you love, but are afraid to use in large doses. Or, experiment with a new wall color in a small space like a foyer, powder room or laundry room. Small steps into the world of color increase your confidence.

The Collections Simplify the Simple

Paint color is one of the simplest ways to change the atmosphere of a room — and to have fun with it. It doesn't take an expert to reinvigorate a room with color. Depending on the new shade(s), a room can be dramatically different or simply refreshed. Even a new coating of ivory or light gray over a white wall can make a big difference!

Perfect Ways to Use Exclusive Plum, Sherwin-Williams ' Color of 2014

Posted by Unknown Sunday, February 9, 2014 0 comments
Described as spiritual, mystical, romantic, and dramatic, Exclusive Plum is Sherwin-Williams 2014 Color of the Year! Unlike the newly declared Pantone color of the year, Radiant Orchid, Exclusive Plum is a color that a majority of us will look at and seriously consider its applicable use in our homes. Jackie Jordan, Sherwin-Williams’ director of color marketing, describes the color beautifully: “This dusky, filtered violet is refined without being stuffy, elegant yet easy, and layered with romantic potential.”


While the previous example was decidedly modern, this space shows how a similar dusty purple can work in a room that is more traditional or transitional. The hue is superelegant paired with rich tobacco browns.


If you like purple-gray but are wary of using a large dose of it, consider employing it as a small accent color. Just keep in mind that if this is the only strong hue in the room, the eye will be drawn to whatever is clad in it. Make sure you are calling attention to something you want to stand out.


To keep the hue from feeling too heavy and somber, try pairing it with plenty of warm whites or creams. A wood floor also adds warmth and contrast.


This example shows how Exclusive Plum can work as a neutral base. It pairs well with shocking greens, bold oranges, bright reds and, yes, even Radiant Orchid. Just use the vibrant hues sparingly and mix in some light neutrals  shades of white, gray or tan  to keep the space feeling light and open.


I think this color works best in bedrooms. It’s a rather heavy hue, which is good for a room in which you want to relax and rest.


Here’s another nice example of how to work with Exclusive Plum or a similar purple-gray. It’s striking in this room against the warm gray and taupe as well as the bits of greenish gold.


Rugs are another way to bring fun new colors into a room. This beauty would look fantastic in a bedroom or living room.


If you like Exclusive Plum, but perhaps not on your bedroom walls, look for bedding in it. Cool purples are thought to reduce stress, so they are perfect for bedroom textiles.


Here’s another nice set of cool grayish-purple bed linens. This hue works well as a base color to which you can add accents of almost any other color. I can visualize splashes of blue, gold, chartreuse, pink or red added here.
