Benjamin Moore Introduces Its 2020 Color of the Year

October 11, 2019

Benjamin Moore revealed its Color of the Year 2020 as First Light 210270 – a soft, rosy hue blooming with potential. With a new decade on the horizon, the industry leader took a fresh approach to mark this milestone. An approach that both embraces and transcends color to reexamine the concept of the home as we know it, while exploring how it will continue to evolve over the next 10 years. With celebrations in both New York City and Toronto, this much-anticipated  luminary momendrew leading interior designers, architects, painting contractors, media and influencers to experience the unveiling.

We selected First Light 210270 as our Color of the Year 2020 to represent a new dawn of idealism, design and living,” said Andrea Magno, Benjamin Moore Director of Color Marketing and Development. “First Light 210270 reflects a new definition of the home – a shift in mindset from the material to satisfying the core needs in life: community, comfort, security, selfexpression, authenticity and ultimately, optimism.

This modern definition of dwelling replaces long-standing post-war ideals, shining light on a new era of design rooted in fluidity for the multigenerational, multifunctional and different states of mind now found under one roof. Ten harmonious hues have been selected to guide us into the next 10 years and beyond, the Benjamin Moore Color Trends 2020 palette features:

First Light 210270
White Heron OC57
Crystalline AF-485
Windmill Wings 206760
Buxton Blue HC-149
Golden Straw 215250
Thunder AF685
Cushing Green HC-125
Oxford Gray 212840
Blue Danube 206230

The Color Trends 2020 palette plays an integral role in supporting these core human ideals,” said Magno. Color is powerful but highly subjective, especially through the lens of different generations, relationships and moods. But from the saturated to bright and airy, all are easy to live with and easy to love–whether they stand alone, in a strong pair, or all cohabitate.
