October Mist 1495 is a gently shaded sage that anchors any space and leaves room for creativity. It will encourage you to express yourself through color and color combinations.
“Make room for creativity. Evoking the silver green stem of a flower. October Mist creates a canvas for other colors and your imagination to blossom”
Benjamin Moore
Benjamin Moore choose, after Aegean Teal in 2021, this year for a soothing green tone. Green is for new beginnings, something we all need after this pandemic. Green is a healing color, as relaxing as blue but more versatile. Green is an easy color to combine. Look around you in nature or in a flower shop to see that it matches as well strong colors, pastel colors or muted tones.
Benjamin Moore’s October Mist will be the perfect color for your kitchen, this sage green tone will give you the inspiration for cooking. It is a tradition color that won’t be out of style next year. The perfect background to combine it with strong pastel colors.
When we start decorating a bathroom we think of wellbeing. Wellness became very important in our hectic life style. A relaxing weekend away in a spa is always high on the wish list. Light green tones are the perfect color for a spa. Sage green in the bathroom in combination with natural stones in beige tones would be a perfect and safe match. If you want to make your bathroom more trendy than I would suggest to combine it with a tempered dark red and dusty pink. Ideal to combine with a mat brass finish for the faucets.
Our bedroom should give us an instant feeling of relaxation. October Mist in combination with a very light wood such as beech or maple tree will create a soothing ambiance. Keep all materials natural; fine cotton for the bedlinen, a wool rug and raffia will be great as a wall covering.
Working from home? After more then a year you got yourself organized at home, knowing that life has changed and working from home can become permanent. Keep it light in colors. Green brings life in the room, in a subtle and refreshing way. If you want to combine it, keep the color combination cool. Adding other green tones and blue will do great in combination with white and light wood.
October Mist is inviting you to create an autumn ambiance with muted colors. The colors of the leaves at the trees, autumn vegetables and fruits. A color harmony that invites you to stay home, enjoy calm evenings and re-connect. The dark evenings are to listen to music, dinners around the table with friends, or to get lost in the story of a good book
Is October Mist a color for you? How would you combine it?
I love the new Benjamin Moore’s color of the year, for me it is a winner!
