It goes without saying that 2020 has been quite the year — and it’s also why Sherwin-Williams chose Urbane Bronze as their paint pick for 2021. A warm neutral with grey undertones, Urbane Bronze inspires feelings of comfort and stability — something we could all use more of during these uncertain times. “The home is now the ultimate retreat from the world, and colour is an easy and effective way to create a personal haven,” says Sue Wadden, director of colour marketing at Sherwin-Williams. “Urbane Bronze encourages you to create a sanctuary space for mindful reflection and renewal.”
Perfect Pairings
Since many of us are still spending most of our time at home, it’s important to create a space that feels balanced and calm. Urbane Bronze is the perfect neutral to ground a space, thanks to its roots in nature. Pair it with other warm neutrals — including browns, creams, blacks and various woods — to transform your home into a restful retreat.
Make an Impact
A livable neutral described as “bold but understated” by Sherwin-Williams, Urbane Bronze can be used anywhere in the home — inside or out. At our Halcyon model in Atlanta, rustic wood beams, light stone and a forest green door pop against a warm grey; while the daring hue is the focal point of this cozy living room at our Wyndfield model home in Southwestern Ontario.
