Introducing Cinnamon Slate 2113-40: Benjamin Moore’s Color of the Year 2025

As 2024 winds down, it’s time to consider the color and design trends for the upcoming year. Benjamin Moore is a front-runner in fashionable paint colors with Cinnamon Slate 2113-40 — Benjamin Moore’s Color of the Year 2025. The rich mix of decadent plum and velvety brown hues makes Cinnamon Slate a versatile color with a subtle, enchanting aesthetic.

Noting the undertones is essential for a cohesive aesthetic, and Cinnamon Slate’s undertones are just as appealing as the color itself. Warm neutral tones and varying textures will balance the brown and plum hues of the Color of the Year 2025. To accentuate the plum tones of Cinnamon Slate, use shades of gold and amber, as well as light wood tones.

Don’t let the depth of this color intimidate you. The understated hue offers reassuring balance and warmth without losing its invigorating appeal. Cinnamon Slate creates an inviting vibe in your entryway or living room. Elevate the appearance of rooms with wainscotting by using Cinnamon Slate on the paneling and a creamy neutral, like Benjamin Moore Glacier White OC-37, on the upper portion of the wall. The color also makes a captivating backdrop for a gallery wall.

If you want to feature Cinnamon Slate in an area of your home, consider pairing it with these shades that complement the color without stealing the spotlight:

• Cloud Cover OC-25: A versatile white with subtle gray-blue undertones that play beautifully off the cool plum tone in Cinnamon Slate.
• Porcelain 2113-60: An understated dusty lilac that infuses rooms with warmth.
• Calm OC-22: A soothing white with a barely-there hint of lavender-gray.
• Chambourd AF-645: A dramatic mahogany with violet and brown notes.

Cinnamon Slate may be the star of the Color Trends 2025 Palette, but leading roles cannot fulfill their potential with a supporting cast. The nine colors comprising the rest of the palette range from soft shades, like Benjamin Moore Tissue Pink 1163, to striking hues, like Benjamin Moore Stained Glass CSP-685. You can choose your favorites or use the entire palette throughout your home for a stylish, on-trend color scheme that will have your friends fawning over your exquisite taste.
