Every fall, Benjamin Moore announces its Color of the Year and Color Trends for the coming year. It is a much-anticipated announcement that helps designers and homeowners alike plan for fresh transformations of residential and commercial spaces with the power of paint. A single color or a coordinating palette can reinvent your spaces and spark an entire renovation.
The 2027 Color of the Year, Webster Green, is a rich, grounding color that can set the mood for your home and define a space with confidence. If your home has been living with safe neutrals for a while, now may be the time to switch to this rich, leafy green full of personality. For designers, the choice of this color signals a shift away from cold, sterile grays to the warmth of an organic green that feels both rooted in history and yet contemporary at the same time.
Get to Know Webster Green
Webster Green, part of the Historic Collection HC-130, is described by Benjamin Moore color specialists as “a timeless green that provides classic confidence and is not reminiscent of the past but rather feels fresh and right for today.” The green balances blue's stability with yellow's warmth, making any home feel open and inviting.
This mid-tone historic green is ideal for making a positive impact on both a home’s interior and exterior. For exteriors, this hue can instantly elevate curb appeal and is the perfect welcome color for any front door or main home color. The shade also coordinates well with natural surroundings, making it ideal for homes with abundant wooded areas and outdoor plantings. For interiors, Webster Green highlights built-in bookshelves and architectural details and pairs well with neutral-colored walls. It leaves a warm, welcoming impression on any guest or visitor.

Homes & Gardens, explains that this year’s Color of the Year and accompanying Color Trends “focus on enduring colors that bridge historical craftsmanship with relaxed, modern living.”
Color Inspiration to Complete Design
A single hue can transform a home from dark and moody to light and airy, and it can even shift the direction of a renovation project. Translating a singular color into a living, breathing space requires a look at the full design picture. At Wolfe Design Build, we don't treat paint as a last-minute finish or an afterthought. We examine how your chosen tones converse with every element in the room. Our approach carefully considers every component of a home's design, from natural and architectural lighting to custom cabinetry, millwork, hard surfaces, and fine hardware details.
This holistic approach is where the true value of working with a design build company comes to life. Rather than hiring an architect, interior designer, and general contractor separately,, a unified design build model integrates spatial planning, material selections, and construction feasibility under one roof. This strategy results in a seamless renovation process and an intentional, cohesive home where every room feels like a natural continuation of the last.
Planning Your Next Home Renovation? Let Wolfe Design Build Help You See the Big Picture
Paint often can be the atmospheric anchor of an entire living space. A thoughtful shade can redefine room proportions, influence mood, and draw focus to fine architectural details. However, choosing the right hue requires looking well beyond a paper swatch. Details like the direction and intensity of natural sunlight, room exposure throughout the day, the color temperature of your light fixtures, and how undertones interact with adjoining home finishes, can dictate whether a shade looks radiant or falls flat.
Bringing those nuanced details together is where an integrated design-build approach transforms the remodeling experience. With Wolfe’s design build model, our interior designers, project managers, and master craftspeople collaborate under one roof from the very beginning. Long before construction begins, we evaluate every creative vision against practical buildability, scheduling, and budget restrictions. This ensures that the design captured in renderings and material samples translates seamlessly into the finished home, all the way down to the final coat of trim.

Discover Our Work
For this sunroom transformation project in Swampscott, we took the space down to the studs, replacing the old fireplace and flooring, before rebuilding into this stunning new space.
We used a rich high-gloss green Benjamin Moore paint across the custom woodwork and cabinets, which instantly made a statement. This vibrant shade helped to bring new warmth and texture to the space, while enhancing overall comfort and elevating the new wood finishes.
