He mea paʻakikī ke manaʻoʻiʻo e kokoke mai ana kahi makahiki hou iā mākou, akā e like me ka mea pena kiʻi aloha ʻo Sherwin-Williams, ʻaʻole hiki wale ʻo 2024 i ke ala - e lana ana ia ma luna o ke ao o ka hauʻoli a me ka manaʻolana.

Ua hoʻolaha ka brand iā Upward, kahi ʻulaʻula hina-uliuli, ʻo kā lākou koho 2024 kala o ka Makahiki i kēia lā, a ʻaʻohe mea e hōʻole ʻia he nani a mālie ka malu. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, wānana ka brand ma ka ʻaoʻao o kā lākou koho 14th Color of the Year, aia mākou a pau i kahi 2024 hauʻoli, ʻoluʻolu, a maopopo.

"Hoʻopuka ʻo Upward i ke ola i ka manaʻo mālama ʻole a me ka lā e hoʻopuka ai i ka manaʻo o ka ʻoluʻolu a me ka maluhia," wahi a Sue Wadden, ka luna o ke kālepa kala ma Sherwin-Williams, i ka Spruce. "Me kēia kala, kono mākou i nā mea kūʻai aku e hoʻomaha a hoʻokomo i kahi manaʻo hou o ka maʻalahi a me ka hiki i loko o ko lākou mau wahi - kahi mea ʻaʻole e hoʻoluhi, akā hoʻokumu i ka noʻonoʻo a me ka maluhia."

He kūpono no nā wahi hoʻomaha

Ma ke kamaʻilio ʻana me Wadden, ua noi mākou i kāna mau punahele punahele no Upward. ʻIke ʻo ia e hana ana ma nā wahi āpau āu e makemake ai i kahi pā māmā a me ka hau o ka hauʻoli a me ka hauʻoli. Manaʻo ʻo ia e hoʻāʻo iā ia ma nā keʻena kīhini no ka hōʻoluʻolu, e like me ka pop o ka waihoʻoluʻu ma kāu ʻoki a i ʻole nā ​​​​puka, a i ʻole i loko o kou lumi ʻauʻau e kūʻē i nā countertops keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo.

"Maikaʻi maoli nā Blues, ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa," wahi a Wadden. "Loaʻa i nā kānaka nā pilina maikaʻi me ka uliuli, no laila hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia i nā noi he nui. He kala ʻoluʻolu ia no nā wahi hoʻomaha, ʻo ia hoʻi nā wahi āu e pono ai e hoʻi i hope a pani i nā pale.

Kaulike ʻo ia me nā kani mahana

Hoʻomaopopo pū ʻo Wadden i ka malu e pili ana i ka periwinkle ma kona mau leo ​​lalo, e lilo ia i polū e hana nani me nā leo mahana, e like me ka 2023 Sherwin-Williams Color of the Year, Redend Point. Hoʻohui maikaʻi ʻia nā leo lāʻau mehana me ka māmā a me ka polū polū, a me nā leo ikaika e like me ka ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo. E like me ka mea i ʻike ʻia i loko o ka lumi ʻauʻau ma lalo, heluhelu maikaʻi ia i ka lepo a me ka māmā.

Akā ʻoiai ua koho ʻia ʻo Redend Point no kona mahana a me ka lepo, aia ʻo Upward e lawe mai i ka buoyancy a me ke kaumaha ʻole. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, i kāna hoʻokuʻu ʻana, ʻōlelo ka brand, "he kono ia e wehe i nā noʻonoʻo i kahi kala o ka mālie ethereal e mau nei - inā mākou e hoʻomanaʻo e nānā mau i luna."

ʻO ia ka mea mua o nā ʻano ʻano hoʻoikaika kai

Me ka lawe ʻana mai i ka positivity hou aʻe i 2024, ua haʻi mai ʻo Wadden iā mākou i kahi wānana ʻē aʻe: ʻO Piʻi ka mea ma mua o nā ʻano, no ka mea ke manaʻo nei ʻo ia e hoʻi hou i nā aesthetics kahakai i nā makahiki e hiki mai ana.

"Ke ʻike nei mākou i ka hoihoi nui ʻana i ka vibe kahakai, a ke manaʻo nei au e hoʻi hou nā mea nani o ke kahakai a me ka hale loko i ka hale mahiʻai i kēia manawa," wahi āna. "He nui ka ikehu a puni ka chic coastal chic e hoʻi mai kahi mea a mākou i noʻonoʻo ai i ko mākou koho ʻana iā Upward."

Ma waho o ke ʻano o kou hoʻohana ʻana i ka malu i kou home ponoʻī, ʻōlelo ʻo Wadden ʻo ka ʻaoʻao holoʻokoʻa o Upward e hana i kahi manaʻo hou no ka makahiki e hiki mai ana.

"He kala ʻoliʻoli maoli ia - hoʻoulu i ka hauʻoli, ka nānā ʻana i nā mea maikaʻi a me nā mea maikaʻi a pau," wahi āna. "ʻO ia ka mea a mākou e makemake ai e neʻe i mua i ka makahiki 2024, a ua kūpono ʻo Upward i ka bila."

E apo ana i ka Inspiration ma na wahi a pau

I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka hoʻomaka ʻana, ua hele ka brand i kahi ala hou e lawe i ka hue i nā mea kūʻai aku… Me ke kōkua o James Beard Award-winning French pastry chef Dominique Ansel, hiki i ka poʻe kipa i kona inoa hale palaoa ma New York City ke hoʻāʻo i kahi Upward Cronut i hoʻomākaukau ʻia e Upward SW 6239.

"I ka nānā mua ʻana, hoʻopuka ʻo Upward SW 6239 i ke ʻano kaulike a me ka māmā noʻu," wahi a Ansel. "ʻAʻole hiki iaʻu ke kali i kā mākou poʻe malihini e hoʻāʻo a wehe i ko lākou mau maka i ka ʻimi ʻana i ka hoʻoikaika ʻana a puni - ʻoiai ma kahi a lākou e manaʻo ʻole ai."
