Benjamin Moore's 2025 Color of the Year is a muted, brown-toned plum – proving 'in-between' hues are the way forward

There's been much anticipation surrounding Benjamin Moore's color trend announcement for 2025, and all is now revealed. Cinnamon Slate, an 'in-between' hue that sits somewhere between purple and brown is the brand's 2025 Color of the Year, and we're fully on board with it.

Not too saturated, Cinnamon Slate combines the warmth of plum with more neutral brown tones, an incredibly liveable paint color. Appearing to have almost a powdery look, this hue is friendly and restful, allowing you to tap into the growing purple paint trend without veering too dark or bold. In addition to its Color of the Year, Benjamin Moore has unveiled a wider color trends palette for the year ahead, a continuation of grounding and relaxing shades.
