Wallpaper Brand
Introduces New Hue

GRAHAM & BROWN HAS REVEALED its 2021 Wallpaper of the
Year - Timepiece - and Color of the Year - Epoch. Timepiece is a
bold representation of the company's archive prints dating from
now back to 1946. One of the patterns is called Original, which
was the first wallpaper the brand produced, and it features a
geometric framework with layers of floral designs woven in a
jewel-toned color palette. The company's Color of the Year - Epoch - is a shade of luxurious plum that complements the trend of
happier, healthier homes. Abby Hesketh, product manager and
paint & color specialist at Graham & Brown, suggests using Epoch for a feature wall partnered with lighter hues of lavender and
heather or pairing it with equally vivid colors for added drama.
