KitchenAid has just launched its 2026 Color of the Year, an invigoratingly refreshing spearmint green hue, and I can already confidently say that I'm a fan. Since 2018, the kitchen appliance brand has been bringing a bit of color to this notoriously gray month with the annual COTY announcement. It's not just a great way to introduce some new shades to the range either; it also acts as a cultural marker, tracking the way trends shift from year to year.
And if their choice of a butter yellow shade last year is anything to go by, we're willing to bet that you'll be seeing a whole lot more of this spearmint color in the upcoming months — and I, for one, am not complaining.
