Image: Pottery Barn x Sherwin-WilliamsThe partnership between Pottery Barn and Sherwin-Williams is one of those collaborations that just feels right. Designing a cohesive interior goes beyond picking the right decor—it’s about creating a color scheme that unites the space. The two brands have been joining forces each year to craft a paint palette that reflects current design trends, and the 2023 palette they’ve curated is full of calming, summer-inspired hues.
"Our new palette draws inspiration from nature," says Monica Bhargava, Pottery Barn's chief design officer. "It’s about bringing the outdoors in, while embracing a touch of color."
Bringing the outdoors into your home is one of the key design trends for 2023. This growing desire to reconnect with nature is a response to the pandemic and the time many spent indoors. While painting your home in garden-inspired hues can’t fully replace outdoor experiences, it certainly helps to bridge that gap.
Sherwin-Williams X Pottery BarnThe 2023 Sherwin-Williams and Pottery Barn Paint Palette is divided into three sections: Go-To Neutrals, Earthy Elements, and Statement Hues. The Go-To Neutrals section is the largest, offering 12 shades of warm whites, beiges, and grays. Earthy Elements, as expected, features tones directly inspired by nature, including colors like Nomadic Desert, Morning Sun, Dried Thyme, and Redend Point, the latter being Sherwin-Williams' 2023 Color of the Year. The Statement Hues section may seem bold for those who prefer neutral tones, but the rich blues, greens, and sunny yellow accents work perfectly when paired with the rest of the palette.
