Having studied color psychology at Pantone and being at the head of Agence Couleur Kryptonie, Marie – Chantal shares her vision of neutral colors with fabulous trend colors.

The 5 favorites of Marie-Chantal

When talking about neutral colors, most people tend to think of gray, beige and brown. Yet the two largest neutrals are in nature: green and blue! The vegetation, the sky, the oceans… But of course!

But what is a neutral? By definition, a neutral is a color that can easily highlight other colors that accompany it, without stealing the spotlight.

Here are 5 “new neutrals” that will be particularly trendy in 2019, and that will inspire you to change the gray!

1. French Vanilla

French Vanilla is a cream with a touch of yellow. This subtle presence of yellow has the power to illuminate a room by adding a sense of sun.

It is the color par excellence to enlarge a room devoid of windows, like a small bathroom, or even to intensify the light effect of a room already very bright.

Being one of the first colors that babies see, it is also a perfect shade for newborn rooms. And because creams are often associated with food, they are also great options for kitchens and dining rooms.

2. Hazelnut

Being in an economically and politically unstable period, the brown has the power to root us and secure us.

The sweetness of Noisette soothes us compared to dark brown, in addition to enlarge the room and infuse a very natural atmosphere.

Wood color, Hazelnut is the perfect neutral for a room where vegetation reigns. In short, it is a beautiful shade to relax!

3. Ballerina

Interior designers and millennials are crazy about pink now! Used in some prisons to calm prisoners, the rose exerts incredible power over our subconscious.

Besides, it is far from being an exclusively feminine color; at the time, pink was the color of baby boys and blue was the color of little girls. Today, the rose is the very symbol of the neutralization of colors and their dissociation to a specific genre.

Finally, the rose has the capacity to make more happy; because let’s be honest, we all need to see life a little pink!

4. Aqua Mint

Aqua Mint is a color with super powers because it can help anxious people to relax. Indeed, this color has a positive and relaxing impact on people who have difficulty to calm down. It is not a coincidence that it is complementary color (opposite) to red!

Aqua Mint can even go as far as lowering your blood pressure. It is a tinge of connection to the inner self, vitality, enthusiasm and change.

If stress is too important in your life, now is the time to integrate Aqua Menthe into your environment!

5. Monaco

Do you have trouble believing that a dark blue like Monaco can be a neutral? Think about denim and how a pair of jeans can match almost anything!
