Clark+Kensington Names Vantage Point 2027 Color of the Year

Clark+Kensington has selected Vantage Point, 38B-4, as its 2027 Color of the Year.
The Ace Hardware paint brand describes the shade as a softened blue developed to work across a range of interior spaces and design styles.
Clark+Kensington worked with color-trend forecasting firm Colour Hive on the selection and the broader 2027 forecast.
Vantage Point anchors two coordinating palettes, Drift and Mellow, that expand the forecast with supporting hues.
The color and related palette selections are available through participating Ace Hardware locations and the retailer’s online Paint Studio.
