Choosing the right paint color is a crucial part of any project and often the most difficult. When your clients have difficulty choosing from an endless number of options, they turn to you for guidance. At Behr, we strive to make color selection easier. And it’s part of our mission to bring the best color specification tools in the industry to design professionals like you.

What is the BEHR DESIGNER COLLECTION?
The BEHR DESIGNER COLLECTION is a hyper-curated color palette that includes 30 top white, neutral and accent colors most recommended by designers. This organized, carefully curated collection features classic hues to make it easy for designers and architects to take on any client project. Whether a family room refresh, a bathroom remodel, or a commercial property renovation, the colors in the BEHR DESIGNER COLLECTION palette are tried-and-true, on-point, and on-trend.
What colors are in the BEHR DESIGNER COLLECTION?
The 30 colors included in the BEHR DESIGNER COLLECTION palette represent a combination of new and existing BEHR® colors. We chose the existing colors based on our most popular sellers. For example, our iconic Cracked Pepper, an almost black with deeply-hidden blue undertones; the light and airy Dove; and the warm, fresh cream feeling of Cameo White, serve as anchors to the rest of the palette.
Walls: GRATIFYING GRAY DC-008
Trim & Rail: WHITE 52
Since the new colors are popular industry-wide, design professionals can now suggest a wider selection of BEHR colors for clients who want classic colors that work with the latest trends. The ten new options include colors like Whipped Cream, a timeless cool white reminiscent of fresh cotton sheets hanging on the line; Gratifying Gray, a gray-blue for anywhere you want to support an elegant style; and Even Better Beige, a versatile neutral that imparts a warm feeling wherever it’s used.
How will the BEHR DESIGNER COLLECTION serve both residential and commercial applications?
The BEHR DESIGNER COLLECTION palette includes proven colors curated for every environment type–both residential and commercial–and are suitable for interior and exterior applications. For instance, envision a master bathroom with Winter White walls and Dark Everglade on the cabinetry. Or, picture the striking appearance of an office building with a Midnight Blue and Dove exterior that opens up to a lobby painted Cracked Pepper and Winter White.
