A 3rd Color of the Year


A 3rd color of the year, this time from Benjamin Moore Paint Company...can you guess what it is?  If you guessed Lemon Sorbet #2019-60  you were right!
Lemon Sorbet 

This color is definitely a departure from the deep saturated colors that we are seeing in some of the predictions (like Pantone's Color of the Year which is Emerald, a deep, dark green)...According to Sonu Mathew, the Senior Interior Designer at Benjamin Moore, lemon sorbet represents the "emerging pastels".  She says to mix this color with a mint, coral, pink, vanilla or blue families....hmmm....sounds calm to me...

According to the Benjamin Moore website this color is "Uplifting without being overpowering, lemon sorbet (2019-60) complements almost any color palette and provides a unifying element for diverse spaces."

At my own home, one of the guest bedrooms, has been painted this color for several years... I have always liked the "sunny-ness"  and warmth of it!  I also have liked that it DOES "go with"/blend with several other colors as mentioned above. 

What do you think?  Where could you use Lemon Sorbet?
