Introducing the 2022 Benjamin Moore Color of the Year
Every year the team at Benjamin Moore pours over 3,500 paint samples to select one color that somehow captures the moment’s mood — the Color of the Year. 2022 is no different. However, the process to choose the color was. Restricted travel and lockdown made the Benjamin Moore team scrappy, hunker down and search inward.
