Are you excited about the new year? Is part of your goal to transform your home into a little something different? Royalty Finishes is really excited to introduce you to the upcoming trends for 2016 to help get your creative juices going!

Color(s) Of The Year

Pantone, the world’s leading “color authority,” has chosen not only one but TWO colors for 2016! The colors are called Rose Quartz and Serenity, a warmer pink and a pretty periwinkle blue. The focus of this choice seems to be on creating calm and peace within your home or office. Royalty can create a spa-like look with these colors in your home or office, so you’re sure to enjoy tranquil moments throughout the day.

Sherwin-Williams paint has also introduced “Alabaster” as their color of the year. This choice of shade is a nod to warmth, simplicity, and mindfulness. Think of it as a warm, fuzzy blanket! SW offers another really great tool called “Color Forecast” that gives designers tips and inspiration.

Geometrics

You’ve seen some of our latest pieces. Geometric shapes are going to be really big in 2016! The patterns focus on consistency and fluidity, instead of the erratic movements of abstracts. While they’re both amazing to work with, geometrics create a certain challenge we enjoy! Check out our work to see what we mean!

Mixed Metals & Metallics

The new year is going a little retro! It’s all about gold, silver, and weathered brass in 2016! Adding pops of shimmer to highlight or showcase a particularly spectacular piece of are or a wall can make your room like a museum showcase. We can create a variety of looks, from subtle to bold, depending on your tastes and preferences.

Say Goodbye To Classic

Feel free to let your inner artist out! Wavy tiles, bright colors, fun patterns…designers from all over are saying to let go of neutral hues and simple patterns and go bold! If you’re intimidated by “too much too soon,” try it by adding one accent wall with a bright pop of color and an unusual texture with a few contrasting throw pillows. Either way, Royalty can help you find the right balance.

We are SO looking forward to the promise of a fresh start! Royalty Finishes wishes you the happiest of new years and we wish you love, health, and happiness in 2016!
