Puerto Rico home trend color forecasts for 2015 feature soothing yet bold blues, according to experts at GLIDDEN paint, a brand of PPG Industries' architectural coatings business.
Societal and consumer trends in 2015 point to the idea of hope. Color experts selected Caribbean Sea (56BG 23/355) as the Glidden paint Color of the Year for 2015 due to its soothing, optimistic and vibrant tones.
Misty Yeomans, color marketing manager, PPG Architectural Coatings, describes the medium blue as “reminiscent of ocean waters and endless horizons,” similar to beautifully saturated Caribbean seas and cloudless skies. With hues reminiscent of mosaic stones, the color has a noticeably bohemian and laid-back coastal feel.
Yeomans recommended incorporating Caribbean Sea into the home on an accent wall or on backs of bookcases. In addition, using it on the wall at the end of a hallway can create interest, reduce the tunnel effect, and ultimately brighten up a room. The vibrant hue pairs well with complementing whites, neutrals, yellow or golden hues, or with black and white patterns for a modern and fresh look, according to Yeomans. Complementary colors can be incorporated in the form of furniture, decor items or trim paint colors.
“By incorporating vibrant, attention-grabbing blues in the home, consumers are sure to feel a sense of hope and enthusiastic optimism, resembling that of a horizon or endless waves in the ocean,” Yeomans explained.
The Glidden paint brand offers a rich tradition of innovation and color inspiration, having consistently embodied quality and performance for generations of customers. From the first latex paints developed and marketed under the Glidden brand decades ago to today’s broad assortment of versatile paints, Glidden paint makes it easy for consumers and paint contractors to turn inspiration into action and add color to people’s lives.
“Caribbean Sea, the Glidden paint Color of the Year, and more than 6,000 other colors can be found at more than 40 Glidden store locations across Puerto Rico,” said Karina Jimenez Muniz, marketing manager, PPG Architectural Coatings. “With beautiful, on-trend color palettes and a portfolio of high-quality products, the Glidden brand has a match for any painting project.”
