How will window blinds colour evolve in 2020?

We are on the verge of a brand new decade. Not only do we move into a new year but a new era for interior design, colour and style. As you can imagine, the team here at Shop4Blinds are passionate about on aspect of home design – window blinds. And, we’re dedicated to bringing a range of different styles, designs and colours into your home. No matter if you’re styling a bedroom, living room or playroom, you should have window blinds that fit your needs exactly. So, with the likes of Pantone, Dulux and Behr announcing their Colours of 2020, we thought it only fitting to see how colour will change as the new year progresses. Let’s take a look at some of the key changes we’ve seen predicted.

Grey will fade out 

It seems that finally, everyone’s favourite neutral hue is making its exit. We’ve all been in those houses where grey is the focal colour in every room. And, there’s nothing wrong with that at all. Perfect for modern and classic homes alike, grey is one of those colours that stands the test of time. However, it seems that moving into a new decade is bringing with it a new focus on how colour makes you feel. Many a site has noted uncertainty in our future as being a key inspiration for the new hues hitting the market. Instead of sparse and cold tones, we’re edging more towards those that make our homes a relaxing retreat instead. 

Neutrals will become darker

There will always be space in our homes for neutrals. After all, there is no surer way to style a home than with classic hues that last. However, the general prediction in 2020 is that these neutrals will darken. Blacks come into home accessories to make a statement along with navy blues and darker browns. Window blinds show no exception – think our Black Real Wood Blinds or Banlight Duo FR Navy Roller Blinds for the perfect, opulent style. 

We will fall back in love with beige

Once deemed a boring and unimaginative option, beige is making a comeback. According to certain interior designers, this is the hue that will overtake grey. So think of it everywhere – on walls, floors, furniture and, of course, window dressings. Picture our Atlantex Asc Dark Beige Roller Blinds on soft beige walls or against richer colour floorboards. Equally, bring texture into the home too with our Devon Sand Roller Blinds

Homely colours will triumph

Think of those colours that have always been there. Safe blues, warm greens and deep yellows. The colours that give us stability in a world that is constantly changing. Those are the statement pieces we’ll be incorporating into our homes. Whether used in a timeless manner or to keep us up to date with the trends, these are the colours we’ll be using to create rooms that inspired us constantly. 

Think our Banlight Duo FR Blue Vertical Blinds, the Banlight Duo FR Lime Green or Splash Amalfi Roller Blinds – the perfect options for any room. 

Jewel colours will continue to steal our hearts

Last year, we noted that more and more people opting for dark forest greens and deep navy on statement walls. And, according to our research, this trend shows no signs of slowing down. Our obsession with luxury and building a home we’re proud of is one we’ll take with us into the new decade. See it as an evolution on from the millennial pink that once lead the way and into one that is more sophisticated and grown-up. 

Think our Splash Empire Vertical Blinds – inspired by Sapphire-tones. Or even the Splash Scarlet for hues that will surely stand out from every room style. The main goal here is to use the deepest colours around your home right – don’t flood small rooms as they’ll stop being usable. 

EVERYONE will fall in love with green

It doesn’t matter whether you’re an emerald or moss green type of person, there is no denying that 2020 will be the year for this grounding colour. Said to symbolise balance, growth and calm, green has been noted as the colour of 2020 by the main names. Dulux announced ‘Tranquil Dawn’, Behr noted ‘Back to Nature’ and Coloro has hailed ‘Neo-Mint’ as the next millenial hue. Hear us again – EVERYONE will fall in love. 

Atlantex Asc Hunter Green, Banlight Duo FR Green or Palette Lime Green – the opportunities for window blinds in hues of green are endless. And are the perfect way to create a room that stays timeless.
