Inspired by a star: The 2024 colour of the year is an out-of-this-world hue of blue

Is it yellow? A shade of green? Or what about brown?
For all of the home decor enthusiasts out there, Benjamin Moore has announced that Blue Nova CC-860 is the colour of the year.
So what exactly is Blue Nova CC-860?
Benjamin Moore describes it as an “alluring blend of blue and violet that sparks adventure, elevates the everyday, and expands horizons.”
The colour is “inspired by the brilliance of a new star formed in space,” adds Benjamin Moore.

“The Colour Trends 2024 palette tells a story of duality– juxtaposing light against dark, warm and cool, showcasing complementary and contrasting colour pairings,” said Andrea Magno, colour marketing and development Director at Benjamin Moore, in a release.
“These contrasts invite us to break away from the ordinary to explore new places and collect colour memories that shape the hues used in our homes.”
