PPG announces SICO™ paint by PPG's 2024 Color of the Year – Satin (6112-31). This modern, yellow hue balances the power of a primary color with the subtlety of a neutral, making it the perfect representation of consumers’ optimism for a future highlighted by transformative creativity and change after years clouded with uncertainty and instability.
Yellow Base Grounded in Beige Undertone
“
As a society, we’re carrying the lessons of introspection and the importance of calm into the future. Coupled with a renewed sense of excitement for the endless possibilities of the future, consumers’ preferences are shifting away from stark, cool shades and looking to colors that invigorate a space,” said Martin Fuchs, PPG senior marketing manager, SICO™ paint brand.
“
Satin is the perfect representation of these sentiments with its cheerful yellow base grounded in a calming beige undertone,” added Fuchs.
Satin is a warm, honey-beige tone that is strong enough to stand alone as the chief color in almost any design palette, yet soft enough to work as a supporting hue to both warm and cool-toned shades. Its versatility makes it a great option as an all-over wall color, bringing the feeling of a warm welcome to any space or as an accent color, where it shines as a spirited focal point of a room.
Designing with this dynamic tone can be as easy as using it to accent existing decor or considering an unconventional surface for application. SICO™ paint experts recommend these tips for introducing this color into the home:
- Paint Satin on all four walls of a room to create a calm and welcoming space or consider using it as the ultimate accent color on the ceiling or focal point of a room
- Incorporate Satin into the kitchen as a statement-making cabinetry color that pairs perfectly with warm- and cool-toned countertops
- Pair Satin with chestnut brown accents to set the stage for an ultra-cozy environment, or keep things bright by pairing it with white accents or wood trim
- Satin can bring an energizing lift to a home’s exterior when used as an all-over color. This friendly yellow makes front doors pop as an accent color to cooler-toned exterior palettes
