The world of interior design is constantly evolving, but some colors transcend fleeting trends to become timeless classics. Benjamin Moore's Color of the Year 2025, Cinnamon Slate 2113-40, is one such hue—a sophisticated blend that promises to bring enduring style and modern sensibility to homes across the country.

Cinnamon Slate 2113-40 is far more than just another neutral. This nuanced color represents a delicate mix of heathered plum and velvety brown, creating a sophisticated hue that brings smooth familiarity to any design.
