Warm Eucalyptus
Sometimes a color gives you a warm feeling inside. And out. This year, that color is our 2026 Color of the Year — naturally restorative and serene Warm Eucalyptus.
WHY IT’S TRENDING
Among the trend drivers that inspired this color choice is that of mindful living — slowing down time and injecting restorative design to appreciate small moments. Color that is restful to the eye is restful to the soul.
In the coming year, we will redefine our notion of neutral hues. Going beyond the classified color term, neutral refers to colors that set a grounding and inviting mood with the warmth that calms our senses.
– Sue Kim, Valspar® Director of Color Marketing
HOW TO STYLE
Our home is working harder than ever to support a multi-generational, multi-species, hybrid hub of living, working and entertaining. Indoor and outdoor boundaries continue to blur, which will emphasize the nature-inspired, restorative colors while curating personal styles. When styling, think organically, with ceramics, wood, bio-based, sandy, gilded gold, etc.
COORDINATING COLORS
Bring on the gray influences. Subtle Degas Blue is warmed by undercurrents of green and calmed by subtle gray. Deep-brown Groundbreaking is a cozy hue with a gray undertone. Together with Warm Eucalyptus, they bridge the natural world from ground to sky.
