What's Old Is New Again

If you lived through the mid-20th century, you might remember the bold color pairing of avocado green
and mustard yellow that now screams "vintage." For those who were born during the 21st century, those
hues are making a fresh and stylish comeback.

According to Living Etc., the earthy tones of the 1970s are trending again. Think mustard yellow,
avocado green, burnt orange, chocolate brown, and deep purple. Today’s designers are reimagining these retro shades in modern ways, often by using neutral walls as a backdrop and letting the colors pop through furniture, textiles, and accents.

Even the infamous avocado bathroom of the ‘60s and ‘70s is returning, and this time with a sleek twist. Clean lines and geometric designs have replaced floral patterns. Expect to see bold greens, even on bathtubs, giving a nostalgic nod to the past with a distinctly modern vibe.
