Paint manufacturers select 2023 colors of the year

Prepare for red to reign supreme in 2023 – or, at least, variations of the powerful color. The color experts at New Jer-
sey-based Pantone, which is considered the international authority on color trends, recently selected a hue called Viva
Magenta to serve as its 2023 Color of the Year. Meanwhile, at least a few of the nation’s biggest paint manufacturers have
followed suit and chosen red-tinged shades as their top colors for the next 12 months.

Pantone describes the vibrant Viva Magenta as being “brave
and fearless, a pulsating color whose exuberance pro-
motes optimism and joy. Powerful and empowering, it is
an animated red that encourages experimentation and
self-expression without restraint; an electrifying, bound-
aryless shade that is manifestly `out there’ and is a stand-
out statement. Audacious, witty and inclusive of all … Viva
Magenta welcomes anyone and everyone with the same re-
bellious spirit.”

Nicole Arnold is a fan of the
color. The Frisco resident
founded Carrollton-based
Nicole Arnold Interiors (nain-
teriors.com) 15 years ago.
The successful firm has de-
signed the interior spaces of
luxury homes and commer-
cial buildings throughout
Dallas-Fort Worth and the
nation.

14   FRISCOSTYLE.COM BEHR’S BLANK CANVAS

No portion of this article may be reproduced without express written permission of Style Publishing Group, LLC. © 2022 • All rights reserved.

She calls Viva Magenta “a great color” for use in accent pieces such pillows, draperies and rugs because “it’s going to make
a statement.” Although she likely would not paint the walls of an entire room with this color, Arnold says, “You could (use)
this in a butler’s pantry or in a bar (on) the cabinetry. … It really can bring some personality. Just use it in smaller scale —
don’t go crazy with it.”

Raspberry Blush, paint manufacturer Benjamin Moore’s top pick for 2023, is described by the company as “a saturated
red-orange that … is unapologetic in its boldness as it encourages a confident color statement.”

“This is actually really nice,” says Arnold, calling the hue a “muddy color that I think will pair nicely with high contrast —
white (or) black.” An accent wall or even a ceiling painted this color “would be fun.” She suggests using it to transform
small cabinetry in a bathroom or a butler’s pantry or possibly a petite piece of standalone furniture, such as an end table.

Meanwhile, paint company Sherwin Williams
went with a more subdued red-inspired hue,
called Redend Point, which it describes as “a
calming blush-beige that inspires expanded
horizons and eye-opening discoveries.”

Sue Wadden, director of color marketing at
Sherwin-Williams, says the color was inspired
“by the idea of finding beauty beyond ourselves. It
is a heartening hue that invites compassion and connection into any
space.”

Arnold isn’t so sure. She says Redend Point is her least favorite of the
2023 color of the year choices that she analyzed at the request of
Frisco STYLE.

“If you’re not careful with this color, it can get very pinky or fleshy look- BENJAMIN MOORE’S RASPBERRY BLUSH

ing, so you have to use this sparingly,” possibly as an accent piece or in tandem with brighter colors, she says. “It reminds

me a little bit of terra cotta, but it’s not even that brown. It’s just a tough one.”

Her sentiments are similar about Valspar’s Southern Road, which is described as “a muted clay” that embraces “the life of
contentment we seek in living with what we have.”

“I would save it maybe for an isolated piece of furniture,” Arnold says. “It seems very dated.”

PPG AND GLIDDEN’S VINING IVY
SHERWIN-WILLIAMS’ REDEND POINT

As it has in years past, Valspar choose a dozen “trend-worthy” hues and crowned those its colors
of the year. Of the lot, Arnold praised a shade called Everglade Deck, which the company describes
as “a deep midnight blue, used as an elegant calming shade to restore our mind, body and home.”

“It’s very dramatic and it can be used on feature walls (and) cabinetry,” she says. “You could paint a wall or the
entire room in this, but it would have to be done carefully and selectively with the right furnishings to make it not
look like a black hole.”

Everglade Deck is quite similar to Vining Ivy, this year’s selection from Glidden and its parent company PPG. Citing con-
sumers’ search for simplicity “in this post-COVID era … Vining Ivy embodies this vibe perfectly. It is energizing yet ground-
ing,” according to Glidden Color Expert Ashley McCollum.

Arnold calls Vining Ivy “a really neat bluey-green” that boasts “a muddier tone. … It is a nice bright” color that won’t over-
power a room. “It’s so easy on the eyes. … It can bring a lot of moodiness to a room, which is a growing trend these days.”

Another moody paint color of the year that Arnold favors is HGTV Home’s Darkroom.

“This I love,” she says of the “warm charcoal” (read: black) shade. “I think there’s tons of mileage with this color. There are
people out there who love a black room and … it can be a very dramatic room. As long as there are plenty of windows in
the room, you’re OK. … Blacks can be really dark, so this is a nice way for someone to dip their toe in the water (by using)
an almost-black” paint color.

At the opposite end of the spectrum is Blank Canvas by Behr Paint Company, which it describes as “a hopeful and welcom-
ing warm white.” Erika Woelfel, vice president of color and creative, says the shade “offers a clean and inviting blank slate
that allows individuality and creativity to flow freely.”

Early experiences

Growing up in the West Texas city of Odessa, Shreve was a
staff photographer for his high school’s yearbook. Following
college, he had a successful career as a certified public
accountant and currently owns and operates a technology
company based in McKinney where he now resides after
two decades spent calling Frisco home.

In 2005, he revisited his love of photography and soon
began traveling the world in pursuit of images (Shreve
prefers not to use the word “photos” to describe his work).

Throughout his life, he has photographed a variety of
subjects but says he “really developed a passion for
landscape and wildlife.” (Shreve’s work can be viewed at
shrevefineart.com.)

Certain elements are necessary to call an image
photographic art, he says. “It needs to be regal. It needs to
be grateful. It needs to be timeless. It needs to be hopeful.
It needs to be remote and be uplifting. Those are the six
components that I look for before I even get the camera out
of the bag.”

Getting the shot

Shreve frequently charters helicopters, which
provide an ideal vantage point from which to
capture images.
While wearing a four-point harness and a tether,
“I’ve shot over New York City literally sitting on
the seat with all of the doors off the helicopter
shooting above the Freedom Tower,” he says. “I’ve
shot in New Zealand out of a helicopter. I’ve shot
over the Great Barrier Reef out of a helicopter. …
That’s probably my favorite thing to do is shoot
aerials out of helicopters. It’s very exhilarating.
The moment you take off, it’s quite a rush.”
Shreve typically travels two to three times
annually. This year, he plans to visit Greenland
for the first time and revisit Iceland. Eventually,
he hopes to photograph the western coasts of
Australia and South America. The trips “require a
lot of planning.”
