See what paint colors, wood tones, metal finishes and other materials coordinate best with the 2022 Color of the Year.

Director of Color Marketing Sue Wadden and her fellow color experts at Sherwin-Williams knew green was going to be an important color for 2022. But they wanted to pick the perfect green for the Sherwin-Williams Color of the Year. “We didn’t want it to be too dark or something you’d necessarily relegate to a cabinet or a piece of furniture or an accent wall,” she says. “We wanted it to be a color you could put on all four walls — and have it look really beautiful.”

Evergreen Fog SW 9130 (215-C4) stood out as the winning hue. “It’s not in your face,” Wadden says. “It’s a little more subtle, a little more recessive and a little more relatable.” And although Evergreen Fog’s neutral undertone makes it adaptable, the color is at its best when paired with the right colors, finishes and materials. Here are Wadden’s recommendations.
