October Mist in Andalusian interiors
The 2022 palette holds up remarkably well in Costa del Sol homes. October Mist 1495 — the year's hero — is a soft sage that absorbs the strong Mediterranean light without going chalky. We've seen it work beautifully in open-plan living rooms paired with travertine floors and natural-fibre furnishings. For a more layered scheme, combine it with the rest of the 14-shade palette: pale neutrals on the upper levels, deeper accents in the studies. Visit our boutique at Calle Dublín 21 to see the full Color Trends 2022 collection swatched, or explore the current year's palette for the latest direction.
Pairing 2022 trend colours with classic finishes
The Color Trends 2022 collection rewards thoughtful layering. October Mist 1495 — the soft sage at the centre of the palette — anchors well when paired with a warm classic neutral like Edgecomb Gray HC-173 on adjacent walls. For trim and millwork, we recommend Simply White OC-117 in Advance® semi-gloss, which stays crisp under strong Mediterranean light and resists yellowing across the typical 5-7 year repainting cycle. Add depth in studies and libraries with Iced Cube Silver 2121-50 or a saturated North Sea Green 645 for a moody contrast.
For execution, Aura® matte is the right call on main walls — its pigment depth and washability suit Costa del Sol family homes. Aura Bath & Spa keeps the same colour discipline in kitchens and bathrooms. Visit our boutique at Calle Dublín 21 to see the full Green family swatched against the 2022 trend palette, plus paint-can samples so you can take the colour home and verify it in your specific light before specifying for a full project.
