Pantone, the world's leading color expert, has selected the rich and vibrant [Ultra Violet](https://www.pantone.com/color-of-the-year-2018) as the color for 2018. While there's a lot that goes into the color choice, by looking at current trends and making statements about the state of things possibly to come, Color of the Year choices are meant primarily to inspire and inform choices in decor, fashion, advertising, and the visual world around us. This doesn't always translate to the best color choice for your home, however. That's where the paint companies come in. " [Click here to read the rest of this article.](https://info.neals.com/hottest-interior-colors-of-2018-making-bold-statements) ### 4.

With a huge amount of styles, colors, materials, and installation options, tile can make just as good of a backdrop as it can a focal point. In a bathroom, your choice of tile can have a bigger impact than in a larger space like a kitchen, so it's important to consider all the options available within your budget and style. Here are the 2018 bathroom tile trends to consider that are key in planning your bathroom renovation."
