New York Fashion Week kicks off today, but Spring/Summer 2015 color trends aren't just for the runways. The color authorities at BEHR have released their 2015 Color Trend Report, highlighting the four color palettes (and 20 brand-new paint colors) that they predict will be gracing the walls of homes across the country next year. 

NUANCED NEUTRALS

Clockwise, from left: Blue Clay T15-16; Mocha Foam T15-17; Peach Preserve T15-20 ; Snap Pea Green T15-18; Mulberry Wine T15-19

The Nuanced Neutrals collection features weathered, rustic colors including a dusty aqua and light tan ideal for walls, when paired with charcoal, copper, and citrus orange accents. 

 FROSTED PASTELS

Clockwise, from top left:  Dandelion Tea T15-9; Elusive Blue T15-8; Secret Blush T15-7; Dreamscape Gray T15-6

Keep the Frosted Pastels collection from feeling too sweet by adding zesty bright accents and dark touches of mauve or black for extra dimension.

DEEP DREAMS

Clockwise, from left: Liason T15-1; Essential Teal T15-3; Heritage Oak T15-5; Your Majesty T15-4; Seared Gray T15-2

The Deep Dreams collection includes serene and dreamy colors like teal, charcoal, and eggplant that are meant to evoke a mystical atmosphere. In a bedroom, the colors help create a relaxing feel when mixed with white trim, richly patterned textiles, and metallic gold accessories.

SOCIAL BRIGHTS 

Clockwise, from top left: Graphic Grape T15-12; Plastic Lime T15-15; Sonic Blue T15-11; Super Hero T15-14; Prime Purple T15-13; Clarified Orange T15-10

  

The Social Brights collection features energetic, eye-popping colors that help create a lively place for conversation—perfect for a dining room. Best used sparingly, you can balance out the brights with neutral shades of gray on adjoining walls, trim, or the ceiling. These six colors are also perfect for painting small decorative accessories for a pop of color on shelving displays
