In Olympic Paints’ (Pittsburgh, Pa) fall 2011 color trend forecast, cool, clean and crisp greens, blues and oranges will bring a hint of autumn into the decorating mix.

The company says blue shades that are “both clean and playful,” like Brilliant Blue B52-6 and Frivolous A56-5 are trending up.

Also “happy, optimistic pinks” and “clean greens” have gained momentum. Green Gloss A64-6 and Panama Rose A36-5 are cited as examples of the mood.

Bold reds with an orange undertone and hue such as Sunset Skyline A31-6, and “bright clean yellows” in the vein of Forsythia Blossom B11-3 are also making a statement, the company says.

Finally, the company says it has detected a trend toward “clean oranges,” such as Autumn Harvest A21-6 and soft “introverted” colors that are muted, warm and hazy, as conveyed in Tin Lizzie D42-4, a “purple-grayish” color.
