This is the Martin Senour colors of 1968 Paint Color Chart. This curated mid-century collection has warm hues and timeless appeal. Presented in six harmonized micro-palettes that range from room enlarging pastels to deep toned accents. Here is a sample of late 1960’s color styling.
Spacemakers
Off whites that harmonize well with many furnishings. Use them in dark, dim or shaded rooms. Avoid white in too bright or sunny rooms. Stark whites look best in modern settings.
The Cheerleaders
Consider these warm, cheerful, clean and clear hues in rooms with little or no natural light. They’re good wake up colors for bedrooms and baths.
Cool + Classic
Use cool (blue) colors for the sunniest rooms. Save the most muted colors for formal rooms. Use lots of white wood trim for extra sparkle. Combine blues with greens like for cooling summer color schemes.
Woodland Hues
These best of 1968 colors are good companions for the popular Candlelight Golds. In too bright or sunny rooms cut the glare with Ultra Olive, Ultra Brown or Ultra Russet. They are good with stone, wood, brick and the Best Beiges for all informal settings.
Candlelight Golds
There are golds here for every taste and use. They provide worlds of warmth for sunless rooms.
Best Beiges
Best Beiges provide good backdrops for earth inspired furnishings. Paint a single Best Beige throughout the house for a unified effect and larger look. Extend the color effect of carpeting onto the walls by matching the two.
This trend setting palette was curated from the award winning Martin Senour colors of 1968 collection.
