The HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams’ 2025 Color Of The Year Is Inspired By Simplicity

It seems fitting that the 2025 Color Of The Year nods to a simple, slow way of life—something Southerners have mastered with moseys up the farm path, swinging on the porch amid an evening breeze, and one of our favorite sayings: “Sit and stay awhile.”

Meet Quietude (HGSW6212) from HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams.

This dreamy, soft sage green with a slight blue undertone—one of ten shades in the 2025 Color Collection of the Year, Naturally Refined—captures calm and timeless design with myriad possibilities. We can see the cool shade perfectly complementing a nursery; a fun, patterned powder bath; or a welcoming entry. Quietude is the slow-down shade of serenity we’re ready to incorporate all-around—on and off the walls—in 2025.

The rest of the Naturally Refined designer-curated collection, available only at Lowe’s, plays up those same slow sentiments with subtle and muted colors that combine nicely together for any room or home project. They include:

• Convivial Yellow (HGSW6393), a light yellow with elegant warm tones
• Sequin (HGSW6394), a brightening and uplifting shade with a goldenrod influence
• Nomadic Desert (HGSW6107), a warm tan with a blushed undertone
• Nutshell (HGSW6040), a neutral chocolate brown
• Spiced Cider (HGSW7702), a naturally inspired rust tone
• Snowbound (HGSW7004), a sophisticated clean white with a warm undertone
• Stucco (HGSW7569), an elegant neutral that embodies the luxury of linen
• Delft (HGSW9134), a mid-tone blue with a neutral undertone
• Rocky River (HGSW6215), a deep green that walks the line of moss and emerald

“The ‘Naturally Refined’ Color Collection embraces the desire for simplicity and slower living,” said Ashley Banbury, color marketing manager at HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams. “Thoughtfully curated with longevity in mind, each shade emanates elements of timeless design and quiet luxury to help support a living space that feels meaningful. Within the collection, the softened sage green Quietude stands out as the 2025 Color of the Year and sets the stage for a quiet space to promote relaxation.”

All of the Naturally Refined paint chips can now be ordered online, and, while supplies last, MyLowe’s Rewards members can register to get a free half-pint sample of Quietude. (Registration is open August 12-15, and paint must be picked up in-store August 16-18.)

In addition, HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams is giving customers another option to take the guesswork out of choosing a paint color through a new partnership with AI-powered home visualization tool Palazzo. Palazzo, which was co-founded by tennis champion Venus Williams, allows you to visualize a color in your own space; just upload a photo and let Palazzo’s cutting-edge technology do the rest. Currently, the collaboration exclusively highlights colors from the 2025 Color Collection of the Year, but will later include all nine permanent collections. (If you’re hoping to try out 2024’s Color of the Year, Persimmon, your time is coming!)

How will you incorporate Quietude into your home?
