Joie de Vivre

A vivacious shade of coral tinged with pink, Raspberry Blush enlivens the senses with an electric optimism.

Raspberry Blush 2008-30 strikes the right chord, setting the stage for Color Trends 2023.

Never a backdrop, Raspberry Blush is the definition of charismatic color. This unapologetic shade of red orange had us thinking: bold, bolder, boldest. This sentiment flows through the rest of the palette as we immerse ourselves in hues that make a statement. Inspired by an artist’s desire to communicate through color, shape, and sound, Color Trends 2023 was built to envelop you in vivacious color.

To commemorate this year’s selection, Benjamin Moore partnered with electro-funk duo Chromeo to underscore the upbeat and optimistic tone of the palette and the dynamic role color plays in self-expression—much like music.

Benjamin Moore x Chromeo

Chromeo’s new song, ‘Raspberry Blush’ celebrates the positivity and enjoyment of life that both color and music influence.
