This Paint Brand Wants You to View This Cool Green as a Neutral
HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams’ new color of the year is here, and there’s a special guest star involved!
Inspired by the societal shift toward more leisurely living, the paint brand has announced Quietude as its 2025 Color of the Year, a cool green featured in their wider collection of the year, Naturally Refined. These 10 soft, luxurious hues are meant to be incorporated into any space, whether that's the living room, office setup or your home's exterior.
"Not only are the colors in Naturally Refined accessible with creamy neutrals and muted greens, yellows and oranges, but they also help DIYers achieve an effortless elegance that makes their home feel peaceful and inviting," says Ashley Banbury, color marketing manager at HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams.
While neutrals have always been on trend because of their versatility, HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams believes we're taking a step back from more traditional whites and grays and moving towards warm, softened colors — think muted greens, yellows and oranges — that are still easy to integrate into any home.
"The soft and timeless hues in the collection inspire a sense of quiet luxury and comfort through color and can be incorporated in endless ways throughout both indoor and outdoor spaces," says Banbury.

The best part? You can actually see how these colors would look in your own home, thanks to the brand’s latest collaboration with Venus Williams’ design platform Palazzo, an AI-powered home visualization tool founded by the tennis champion alongside Raffi Holzer and Edward Lando.
“Visualization in home design is a game-changer, and our partnership with HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams will allow us to push boundaries and set a new standard in this space,” says Williams on Palazzo’s site.
As the exclusive paint partner for the platform, HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams has launched their 2025 Color Collection of the Year, Quietude included, on Palazzo. The collection's range of soft colors is the perfect start for consumers who are over the whites, grays and blacks but aren't necessarily ready to paint their living room an overly bold shade.
Now, consumers can test out any color from the collection in any room of their home. Interested in a neutral chocolate or a rusty orange? Play around with Nutshell or Spiced Cider. And if you don’t love it, wipe it away with the push of a button and try something new. The possibilities are endless.
"Palazzo is all about the story of home, and HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams is about the story of color, combining these two things together made a lot of sense from a mission standpoint for both our companies," says Stephanie Seril, head of marketing and growth at Palazzo.
