Of course, Benjamin Moore COTY is THE one that I most look forward to. I wouldn’t be lying if I told you that it is written in my calendar with an alarm so I don’t miss the announcement. I get that excited. Like a little kid at Christmas.

Benjamin Moore Blue Nova

825 / CC860

Traditional style is trending. FINALLY. Benjamin Moore captured this by warming up blue. Blue Nova is a mid-tone that leans toward violet giving it a warmth that elevates this sumptuous hue while also has endlessly classic appeal.

Psychology of Color

Color creates specific moods and atmosphere to a home. Each hue is chosen carefully to set the particular mood that is desired.

Blue-Violet in color psychology creates the experience of calm, control, tranquility and intelligence.

It is perfectly suited for bathrooms, bedrooms, and shared living spaces, a blue-violet hue, such as Blue Nova, effortlessly infuses a sense of serenity wherever it graces. The richer tone exudes an air of understated strength.

Color Palette 2024

Yes, Benjamin Moore is just a bit extra. Not only do they have a COTY every year, but they also introduce a color palette to harmoniously collaborate with the main event.

Hands down, this is one of the best color palettes I’ve seen in quite a while. I hope you agree.

Pro-Tip

“Inspiration for your space can come from many sources. It can come from a fabric that you couldn’t take your eyes off of, a classic painting, or a room you saw on the web”

And that is exactly where I began to search for inspiration for my Color Palette+ schemes. I have a few of my favorites to show you. I must say this is one of my favorite things to do once the color and palettes are unveiled.
