February Color of the Month: Terra Rosa (DE5096)

Why Terra Rosa is February’s Color of the Month?

You might be familiar with our 2023 Color of the Year, Terra Rosa (DE5096), but did you know this perfectly lovely shade of pink is also our February Color of the Month? All things Barbiecore and pink are in the zeitgeist right now, and this rosy shade of the color pink is the perfect hue for all lovers and dreamers as we come upon the Valentine’s Day holiday this February. 

Pink is known to elicit feelings of calm and optimism, and this February Color of the Month is a particularly soothing shade of pink. This pink paint color offers a feeling of balance. If pink represents the love associated with Valentine's Day, then this color is sophisticated, deep, wistful—looking past ostentatious acts of romance in favor of the romance found in savoring the everyday small pleasures. Terra Rosa, with its terra cotta influence, is far from overly saccharine, which is why this shade of pink pairs perfectly with other neutrals such as Antique Paper (DE6218) and Porous Stone (DE6220)

Why Rosy Pinks Are Perfect for 2023

Rosy pinks are perfect for 2023 and fit within a larger design movement trending over the last number of years. Terra Rosa is a part of our 2023 Color + Design Story, Life In Poetry, a color palette that is all about embracing the slow movement and appreciation of handcrafted skills and products of a bygone era—colors that evoke quaint, old seaside retreats, for example. Trending design aesthetics such as Cottagecore, Coastal Grandma, and Grandmillenial embrace this kind application of rosy pinks. These simpler pinks cultivate an aesthetic that feels lived-in and worldly, perfectly captured in a paint can.
