Benjamin Moore is venturing into uncharted territory by announcing their Color of the Year 2024 Blue Nova 825. This captivating shade combines the allure of blue with a subtle hint of violet, exuding a cosmic aura that ignites a sense of adventure and entices you to embark on new experiences.
How was Blue Nova chosen as the Color of the Year 2024?
This galaxy-inspired hue was revealed during a live-stream press conference at Blue Origin’s orbital launch site in Cape Canaveral, Florida. Benjamin Moore’s color marketing and development team members, Andrea Magno and Sharon Grech, shed light on their choice of Blue Nova. They described it as a well-balanced mid-tone, offering a sense of reassurance without being overly dark or too light.
Blue Nova pairs beautifully with neutrals, granting the freedom to experiment with color. You can pair this grounding blue with vibrant, contrasting colors like orange to create an otherworldly atmosphere. Consider using Blue Nova on the ceiling in a dining room or throughout a small powder bathroom for a bold statement.
What colors are part of the Color Trends 2024?
In addition to the Color of the Year, Benjamin Moore unveiled its 2024 color trends palette, featuring ten captivating colors inspired by the night sky. These hues seamlessly blend traditional and modern aesthetics, with options ranging from the ever-popular White Dove and Honeybee to Teacup Rose and Hazy Lilac. The palette invites endless possibilities, whether revamping your bedroom or envisioning a new home office.
The Color Trends 2024 Palette weaves a narrative of duality, a dance between light and dark, warmth and coolness while highlighting complementary and contrasting color pairings. The palette reinterprets familiar complements by delving into the interplay on the color wheel. It contrasts refreshingly, making embracing more vibrant colors in your living spaces easier. Blue Nova 825 pairs exceptionally well with its contrasting palette counterpart, Topaz 070.
In the previous year, Benjamin Moore’s choice for the Color of the Year was Raspberry Blush, selected for 2023. Blue Nova and the Color Trends 2024 palette present a splendid blend of gentle and bold shades, following in the footsteps of last year’s choice.
The color trend is moving away from the softer, more natural hues of 2021 and 2022 and uses bolder colors like Raspberry Blush 2008-30 in 2023. Blue Nova 825 and the other colors in the Color Trends 2024 palette strike a harmonious balance between soft and bold shades, resulting in well-rounded mid-tone hues.
