Everything old is new again, and that goes for decorating with color. While the last decade in home decor has largely been defined by white and varying shades of beige and gray, today’s designers are harking back to yesteryear with paint colors, furniture and even kitchen appliances.
Part art deco, part ‘50s suburban and part ‘60s mod, these awesome retro colors are fresh and refreshed to fit today’s tastes, says Sherwin Williams, whose wall color faves this year include shades of pink, aqua and pale or mustard yellows with accents of slate or peppery coral—great ways to set off the stark white of baseboards, crown moldings and door frames.
Big Chill, a retro appliance company launched in 2001, is finding huge success with its growing line appliances. Refrigerators, stoves and dishwashers in pink, aqua, yellow and more that bring a spirit of nostalgia to today’s kitchens, along with their high-tech efficiency.

Small kitchen appliances from crockpots to mixers and toasters are now available in a wide range of bold and retro colors. Also look for pink velvet, pale blue and teal sofas from a variety of furniture design companies as vintage furnishings make a huge comeback.
You might also find bright orange and sage green shantung side chairs, shabby-chic and pastel-colored buffets, bookshelves and other accessories. Don’t miss the lighting display in most home stores, where Tiffany lamps and vintage shades are gaining ground in sales.
A roomful of these vintage colors as part of your home decor can make you feel a little nostalgic, a little happier and a little more optimistic. What more could anyone ask for?
