a warm, Cathie Hong inspired color palette

How much do you love this little wallpaper moment?! I love how it adds a playful touch to an otherwise clean, collected space.

Today’s color palette evokes confidence, warmth, and the subtle richness of a home designed to be lived in. Designed by Cathie Hong, this mix of pink clay, burnished ochre, warm beige, deep green-gray, and dark moss creates a grounded yet modern mood :: bold without feeling loud, layered without feeling heavy. If you’re looking for a palette that feels cozy, intellectual, and quietly expressive, this is it!

Click the button below to download a free printable PDF of this color palette that includes values for print (CMYK) and web (HEX, RGB, HSL) - as well as the closest Pantone matches for coated and uncoated stock! It’s everything you need to recreate this color combo on your own.

Happy Friday!
