“Art is the most sublime way to express the language of colors, which speak directly to the observer’s heart.” – Johannes Itten

Summer is a time for renewal, even for spaces, perhaps embracing new shades that convey freshness and vitality; don’t miss the four trends dominating the 2023 color trends.

Colors have extraordinary emotional power also because we are deeply connected to certain shades and tones; experimenting with combinations that awaken our hearts is a true privilege; the shades we present to you, are based on the beauty of nature and reflect an authentic and simple lifestyle.

This summer, let yourself be inspired by a color palette capable of opening up to new chromatic perspectives: terracotta, ochre, green, and the color of pink clay that are taking the furniture and interior design by storm. These are shades that evoke the warm light of the sun and the tranquility of the soft colors found in the surrounding nature.

Choosing the nuances for your spaces is a journey guided largely by your instinct, but it’s no coincidence that we feel particularly drawn to these types of shades, so earthy, almost carnal.

Terracotta color

Terracotta, a color that evokes ancient suggestions, takes its name from “terra cocta,” which in Latin means “baked earth.” This unique shade, which is neither limited to red nor orange, imparts a distinctive atmosphere to any room and can be used both as an accent color and as the main background in a decorative scheme. Thanks to its chromatic depth, it is ideal for north-facing rooms, adding warmth to the darkest corners and creating a cozy atmosphere.

Imagine stepping into a room that welcomes you with a warm embrace. Terracotta can envelop the walls or be used through decorative objects, creating a timeless atmosphere; its presence gives a sense of familiarity and comfort.

Ochre

Ochre is an extraordinary, elegant, and exclusive color that exudes warmth and hospitality, bringing brightness to spaces: it lies between golden yellow and very light brown, recalling the shades of the earth.

When the most frequented spaces, like the living room or kitchen, lose their appeal and vibrancy, ochre is an excellent choice to play with design elements: this golden hue will give spaces a vibrant aura, conveying a sense of sophistication and renewed vitality.

That shade of green…

Green rooms are in full bloom, and it’s time to abandon any hesitation. The shades of green have invaded Instagram feeds, are skillfully used by some of our favorite designers, and it’s not hard to see why. This versatile color exudes effervescent energy and brings the outside world into the home. Whether it’s electrifying chartreuse tones that shine in the dining room, delicate mint shades dancing on kitchen furniture, or bold emerald stripes in the bathroom, the opportunities offered by this color are endless.

Earth green, in particular, represents life itself, symbolizing growth, renewal, and transformation. It is entirely natural to desire the reassuring presence of Mother Nature within our homes.

A pink that looks like clay

Pink, with an increasingly sought-after range of colors, proves to be incredibly versatile. Although often associated with children’s rooms, in recent years it has conquered every corner of the house. Now – from delicate blush, to warm peach tones and bright pinks – it is creatively incorporated into various living spaces; the clay shade gently and romantically envelops, offering the possibility to create a table or a magical island or to immerse oneself in a night of beauty and relaxation. If you wish to dare further, you can add a pink marble slab to the shower, giving a touch of timeless elegance.
