Your Home Office: Get to Work with 2023’s Fresh Color Palette

World-renowned interior designers have spoken, and top paint companies have each named their “Color-of-the-Year.” We’re transitioning from soft grays and earthy moss greens to a season of bold, warm punches of highly pigmented colors. Your home office is a great place to start spicing things up and bolstering productivity at the start of this year, perhaps with an accent wall of a new blush or comforting brown.

Keys to Revitalizing your Home Office Space in Northwest Florida:

1. Add some color: The key is balancing some subtle pops of color with the organized, clean slate you want to hold onto in a home office. It can get distracting if you go overboard with too many rich, bold colors. So keeping things tasteful is critical. Hold on to the natural, neutral, and light colors you’ve loved in the recent trends. However, you can let go of so many complementary shades of beige and gray. Contrasting the neutrals with some brights can wake up a monochromatic space.
2. Keep the natural elements: Use as much natural light as possible, light, airy linen or gauze curtains, and wooden and canvas furniture. Soft rugs and a reading nook will create a look of coziness to the office space.
3. If painting, choose a neutral white or a beige for most walls and use a bright color as an accent wall for a focal point to brighten the space.
4. The organization is of utmost importance. This time of the year is perfect for gathering items that need to be stored, recycled, put away for taxes, and shredded. Use bins that are neatly labeled, bookshelves, and decorative baskets.

Colors to Add:

1. Browns will be comforting and cozy; For example, Sherwin Williams Color-of-the-Year “Redend Point.”
2. Reds will range from blushing pinks to wine and mauve.
3. Vivid shades of green will emerge, from deep and dark to tropical brights.
4. Pairing warm with cool tones: For instance, complementing bright purple with tan.
