Here’s a recap of the moods of Color Trend 2018 before we launch Color Trend 2019 which is waiting in the wings.

Although there are certain colors that define a period, like the pastels of the 50s or the psychedelic colors of the 60s, I would argue that color is a personal choice. For me there is no such thing as colors going out of style. There are however trending colors, largely influenced by the social, political and economic landscapes of a certain time period.

The Moods of Color Trend 2018

Since 2015, Boysen has been launching four color palettes per year, usually with six colors per palette. A color palette has a defined mood or personality, which is also true for Color Trend 2018’s BE YOU, BE SEEN, BE HERE and BE YOU.

See the videos below to get a look and feel of each palette’s mood.
