It’s a big week in the design world—in addition to their Color of the Year 2025 announcement this week, Benjamin Moore released their 2025 Color Trends Palette, a curation of 10 paint shades that reflect a combination of what’s currently popular in design and some forecasting.

"Cinnamon Slate is an inviting hue that offers enduring style and modern sensibility," says Andrea Magno, Color Marketing & Development Director at Benjamin Moore. "Its depth and richness bring an air of approachability and sense of comfort throughout the home, making it a new favorite for years to come."

Benjamin Moore has released its annual Color of the Year for 2025, and it's actually a rich, earthy tone perfect for autumn and beyond. The color, which is expected to be all the rage in 2025, is called Cinnamon Slate,

The Montvale-based paint, color and coatings brand said its Cinnamon Slate shade offers an “adaptable yet distinct” hue that can bring “a soothing familiarity and balance to any design.”

Paint manufacturer Benjamin Moore has named Cinnamon Slate its Color of the Year. The "mix of heathered plum and velvety brown" is a distinctly modern hue with a complex personality—both elegant and relaxed at the same time.
