YOLO Colorhouse Announces 2014 Color Trend Palettes

PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- For 2014, YOLO Colorhouse presents a trio of color palettes that evoke simplicity (Sketchbook & Marine Layer) and push the boundaries with bolder and vibrant hues (Color Theories). "We are seeing a contradiction in color terms for 2014," says YOLO Colorhouse co-founder Janie Lowe. "Some interiors are going back to the basics with minimal color and at the other end of the color spectrum, we see the embrace of distinct splashes of color like peacock blue and citron yellow." The new 2014 Color Trend Palettes offer many options for creating a space that evokes individual style. YOLO Colorhouse paint is available online through Home Depot.com, Amazon.com and select local retailers: http://www.yolocolorhouse.com/retail/online-purchase/. Color swatches and architectural images of the palettes are available upon request.

2014 Color Trend Palettes

The Sketchbook Palette:  Embrace the simplicity of black + white with this pared-down palette.  Similar to a charcoal drawing, visual interest is accomplished through changes in value and contrast. Without relying on color to make a statement, you can create a straightforward yet appealing interior with the basic hues of BISQUE .01, METAL .03, METAL .04 and METAL .06.

Marine Layer Palette: Evoke the casual calm of living near water by layering blue, green and grey hues. As gentle as walking through fog, these cool colors transition easily from room to room.  Wrap yourself in the comfortable hues of BISQUE .06, GLASS .02, WOOL .03 and WOOL .06.

Color Theories Palette: These colors evoke sophisticated European salons filled with vibrant discussions about poetry, philosophy and art.  As a nod to creative spirits and independent thinkers, use these colors when you want to push design boundaries with the unexpected combination of WOOL .05, BEESWAX .05, METAL .05 and WOOD .02.
