People are passionate about colour, and the shade on your walls can say a lot about who you are. 

This is why picking the right colour can be a challenging task. And this is why we're asking for your help in choosing the 2020 Co-op Imagine Paint Colour of the Year.

Soft Pumpkin
Meet Sasha AKA Soft Pumpkin. They love the fall, foliage, and Pumpkin Spice Lattes. It’s perfect for elevating the cozy spaces in your home. This colour is meant for those who live life in the full; it’s bold and eclectic. Whether you’re using Soft Pumpkin in a cozy nook or as a feature wall, it’s sure to be noticed.

Pro Design Tips: For a spirited room, use Soft Pumpkin as a feature wall and pair it with animal prints and busy designs. For those who like Soft Pumpkin but want a delicate approach, subtly accent this colour with royal blues using a dominant neutral colour. Choose throw pillows in the same shade of royal blue with differing textures to complement.

North Hampton
Meet Nick AKA North Hampton. They love hiking in the summer, crisp walks in the fall, and snowshoeing in the winter. This colour is perfect for those who enjoy serenity and nature; it’s poised and peaceful, a comfortable reminder of life in the open air. North Hampton is the perfect backdrop for all of your houseplants.

Pro Design Tips: Accentuate North Hampton with natural wood and plenty of house plants for a modern but minimal design feel. Alternatively for a chic style, the emerald tones in this paint pairs well with monochromatic gold accents for a 90s glam aesthetic. Try a Chevron pattern in gold over a North Hampton accent wall.

Pink Flame
Meet Pat the Pink Flame. They’re charming, lively, and love to entertain as the life of the party. This colour falls on the lighter side of red, a few shades darker than your average pink making it a modern unisex colour. Whether you're a Patricia or a Patrick, this colour adds a creative element to your home. Calming yet bold, Pink Flame is a charismatic reminder to enjoy yourself.

Pro Design Tips: Use Pink Flame as a backdrop for your floral arrangements. Since it is a louder colour, it will pair well with blacks, whites, and hints of gold. Break up walls of Pink Flame with extra-large gold-framed black and white portraits. You can use natural wood to offset the vibrancy of this hue.

Walden Pond
Meet Wendy AKA Walden Pond. Wendy is a calming presence, composed and trustworthy. This colour evokes a soothing nature. Whether you’re a parent of three or the proud parent of house plants, Walden Pond is a judicious choice.

Pro Design Tips: With its calming tone, Walden Pond works well in a nursery or child's room. Since it’s a neutral colour, Walden Pond can be accented with soft oranges. Or, for a fashion-forward feel, elevate Walden Pond in your home with a mix of modern metallics — we like bronze and rose gold.
