The 2018 Colors of the Year have been unveiled! Now, take a look at what shades leading industry brands are calling the stars of their fresh, new color palettes.

Visions of Violet

The highly anticipated Pantone 2018 Color of the Year is here, and their pick is Ultra Violet! Pantone says the color communicates originality, ingenuity, and visionary thinking that points us toward the future. Our editors have mixed feelings about it.

Essence of Empowerment

The color is both feminine and bold, which makes a perfect combo for a girl's bedroom like this one pictured where it can be friendly and fierce at the same time.

A Color That Rules

Ultra Violet is ideal for making an unexpected statement in any room, even the kitchen. Purple has historically been the color of royalty, and it can look so regal and yet hip and funky at the same time.

Dive Into the Darkness With Deep Onyx

Move over millennial pink, we're onto bigger, better and darker things. Glidden's 2018 Color of the Year is Deep Onyx better known as classic black. This most beloved neutral may be intimidating at first, but paired with crisp white furniture and metallic home accents, black walls may become a staple in creating the contemporary home of your dreams.

Paint the Town Black

If you're struggling on choosing a wall color for your space, take some advice from the Rolling Stones and "Paint It Black." Using a black like Deep Onyx from floor to ceiling is the perfect way to add contemporary style to any bedroom, without being too overpowering. The darkness of the walls paired with light wood furniture and bright decorations creates a contrast that is just to-die-for.

Create a Bold, Modern Contrast

By pairing this luxurious black accent wall with white linens, neutral fixtures and textured, coordinating throw pillows, this modern bedroom becomes a dreamy, minimalist haven. Add some greenery and faux fur for that extra dash of mid-mod flair.

Spice up Your Spaces with Caliente

According to color experts, this bright red hue is paired best with airy, peachy tones, so don't throw out your millennial pink throw pillows just yet!

Make a Bold Statement

Best used as a bold accent color, bright reds will surely shine in any space. Pair with neutrals to play it safe, or combine with other bright hues to create a fun, lively living room. For a chic, modern look, use crisp white furniture and linens to make your red walls pop.

Seeing Red

The vibrant energy of red inspires creativity and easily becomes the focal point of any room. Use this lavish shade to outfit an otherwise plain gallery wall or dress up a drab staircase for the ultimate home makeover.

Add Tropical Flair to Every Space

Whether you're outfitting an entire living room or dressing up the family bathroom, a bright blue hue is a perfect color to make a bold, fun statement in any space— no matter the size. Throw this lively turquoise on any wall to create a tropical getaway in the comfort of your own home.
