2013 Color Forecast

Color forecasters are a mix between designers and sociologists. They understand what trends will be hot in the year to come. The forecast for the upcoming year will be neutral colors with a pop of a bold color. The neutral colors will either be shades of grey or shades of brown, and the pops of bold colors will be reds, blues, or greens. With the many shades of a neutral color in a room, it creates a monochromatic scheme. The color forecasters are inspired by many different things; including fashion and other countries.


This board shows a monochromatic color scheme that uses neutral colors with a pop of color (blue).
