Have you heard that Radiant Orchid is the color for 2014? Have you found that it may be too intense for your interior, however you still want to feel “on trend”? Well, we have found a way to tone down the saturation and pump up the style via Sherwin Williams’ color of the year, Exclusive Plum. Exclusive Plum (SW 6263) is a sophisticated violet with a balance of cool blue and feisty red with a splash of gray, pairing well with a variety of styles to create color schemes suitable for any room.
“This dusky, filtered violet is refined without being stuffy, elegant yet easy, and layered with romantic potential,” says Jackie Jordan, Sherwin-Williams director of color marketing.
Exclusive Plum has an amazing quality and can be adapted for nearly any space, whether used as an accent or for an entire room. Here are some design ideas for Exclusive Plum:
- For a cozy, masculine look, we recommend pairing this color with accents of copper and well-worn leather.
- Exclusive Plum can also be layered with gold, gray and white for an elegant, dreamy space.
- It’s great highlighted against white subway tile and chrome fixtures for a statement space.
- Pops of magenta and chartreuse can liven up Exclusive Plum for a more energetic space and when paired with creamy whites or other neutrals, the mellow yet purposeful purple can turn any space into a refreshing retreat.
