Sherwin-Williams has declared the 2019 Color of the Year to be Cavern Clay SW 7701. Described as a “warm terracotta color, with ancient, elemental roots,” Cavern Clay is an earthy throwback to mid-century modern aesthetics. This robust color of the year draws on deserts, canyons, beaches, and sun-washed late afternoons for inspiration. Designed to bring the rich elements of the outdoors inside, this delightfully playful hue is perfect for warming up any space.

Are you ready to incorporate this color of the year into your 2019 home decor designs? Read on for five ways to bring this nature inducing tone into your home.

Decorate with Home Accents

Not ready to make a full commitment? Try out the 2019 color of the year by finding area rugs, throw pillows, or blankets that incorporate Cavern Clay into the design. Try to look for pieces that play with desert and elemental inspired patterns. This shade works well with complimenting materials such as simple wood grain and leathers, so don’t be afraid to mix and match textures to create dimension.

Paint An Accent Wall

Painting one wall with Cavern Clay adds a classy design feature and makes a beautiful statement in any living space. Pair it with a complementary color in a creamy white or beige to really make it pop. To draw even more attention to a pretty accent wall, add a few pieces of mid-century era art.

Brighten Up Furniture

Just as painting an accent wall in this color creates an eye-catching detail, another way to make a statement is with your furniture. An accent chair in this shade adds a pretty pop of color in a room boasting a neutral design. Not ready to swap out your furniture just yet? No problem! Slide a slipcover over existing furniture to test it out.

Spruce Up The Kids Room

Cavern Clay is a playful and warm color to add to your child’s room or playroom. Create an outdoor theme with woodland animals, camping toys, and a fun patterned bedspread to tie it all together. Don’t limit yourself to painting walls one solid color, either. Instead, add a unique twist with a striped or chevron pattern to insert a dynamic element to the space.
