Wall color is an essential element that sets a room’s mood and serves as a backdrop for furniture and accessories. We’re excited about Behr’s color trends for 2009, which embrace eclectic interior designs and celebrate diverse cultural influences.
They’ll help you transform lackluster living spaces into chic and comfortable interiors. Luckily, wall color is one of the most inexpensive ways to update a room, so you can have fun exploring these new color palettes!

Behr Palette #1: Earthy & Exotic
- Rich, warm palette of earthy taupe and deep red tones

This color trend is designed to display the special pieces you’ve collected in your travels or to showcase accessories that are inspired by your favorite locale.

Behr Palette #2: Glamour
- Elegant, soothing palette of mossy greens and expressive browns with touches of pale ivory
- Features sleek ceramics and reflective metal accents, balanced by deep natural wood tones and fresh flowers
- Stylized furnishings…but not too “matchy matchy”
This color scheme and the mix-and-match eclecticism of the room’s furniture and décor strike the perfect balance between luxury and livability.

Behr Palette #3: Global
- Easygoing, inviting palette of grassy yellows, sandy tans, and bright whites
- Makes the most of a single focal color – deep turquoise – for bold contrast
- Neutral and natural pebbles, grass, plants, wood, and shell accessories balance the room’s intensely colored wallsWe may live in a global village, but you still want to express a unique personal style.
This palette will help you blend worldly influences with your own fresh approach to complete a one-of-a-kind interior design scheme. |
