Sherwin-Williams, a 100-year-old paint company in the US, chooses Evergreen Fog (fog green) as its “Color of the Year 2022”. Evergreen Fog is described by Sherwin-Williams as a green-gray color inspired by nature. To select this color, the company’s team of color and design experts analyzed an assortment of trending colors.

“Evergreen Fog is a color that gives a space a subtle yet dramatic effect,” says Sue Wadden, Sherwin-Williams color marketing manager. “It helps us feel fresher and is a great choice for both modern interiors and exteriors.”
According to Wadden, Evergreen Fog is suitable for spaces that need a “renewable feel” such as homes, hotel rooms, restaurants and offices. Particularly for houses, homeowners can use this color for every area, from the living room to the bathroom. Evergreen Fog is easy to combine with natural materials and black or metallic colors like champagne, bronze.
