Earthborn Colour of the Year 2023 - Hopscotch
Hopscotch
Earthborn Colour of the Year 2024
Eco-friendly paint company, Earthborn, is excited to announce its Colour of the Year as Hopscotch – a beautifully perfect neutral.
Sophisticated and calming, Hopscotch is a warm, chalky off-white that is incredibly adaptable. Combining subtle yellow and grey undertones, it moves away from the bright, bold colours that dominated the interiors industry in 2023 and into an earthy colour palette that feels cosy and familiar.
Cathryn Saunders, Head of Creative at Earthborn:
“With earthy, warm colours starting to dominate the interiors space,
chalky neutrals are an essential part of this palette.
Extremely versatile and delicate, Hopscotch is our Colour of the Year
as it works with all room orientations, serving as the perfect
subtle backdrop for brighter colours or working in harmony with
similar neutral tones for a softer aesthetic.
Whether used across walls, ceilings, woodwork or furniture,
this warm and calming shade forms the foundation of various design
styles,bringing longevity, timeless appeal and relaxation to all spaces.”
Awarded the first UK licence of the EU Ecolabel for Indoor Paints and Varnishes, Earthborn has been at the forefront of meeting high environmental standards by selecting the right eco-conscious ingredients – from raw material extraction right through to production, distribution and disposal.

Conquering the fifth wall: Interior design expert explains why Brits should decorate their ceilings and how to master this emerging trend
An interior design expert has broken down why decorating the “fifth wall” has become a popular interior design trend, and has given their advice on how to implement this quirky design choice when decorating your living space.
The ceiling is one of the most overlooked aspects of any room in interior design. However, when used to its full potential, this hidden gem has the ability to significantly enhance a space.
To help Brits wrap their heads around this emerging trend, Cathryn Sanders, Head of Creative at eco-friendly paint company, Earthborn, has broken down why painting the ceiling has become so popular, and has shared her top tips for introducing the design choice into your home. Cathryn commented:
“Many Brits tend to ignore their ceilings when decorating their homes, but interior designers refer to it as the ‘fifth wall’ for good reason! You’ll be surprised to learn just how much treating your ceilings, just as you would any other wall in your house, can completely transform the appearance of your rooms.”
Why has decorating the fifth wall become a popular interior design trend?
“Decorating the fifth wall has become a hit with interior designers and homeowners as it makes use of a crucial yet often neglected feature in your home and gives it the attention it deserves. The concept of taking what is essentially a blank canvas and making your own mark on it is hugely appealing and leaves plenty of room to let your imagination run wild.”
“It is, therefore, no surprise that the fifth wall trend has become so popular on social media sites such as TikTok, where interior designers and amateur decorators alike are sharing their tips, expressing their creativity, and inspiring their followers to get involved.”
“On TikTok, hashtags such as #ceilingpainting and #ceilingmural are currently standing at over 8 million and 12 million views respectively, so it’s easy to see why the fifth wall trend is picking up steam in the interior design world!”
Why should homeowners take advantage of decorating the fifth wall?
“Incorporating your ceiling into the overall aesthetic of a room adds an additional dimension and layer of visual interest, taking a feature which would have otherwise faded into the background and instead making it a focal point.”
“The ceiling caters well to all design tastes, so whether you want to make a statement by going intricate and extravagant with rich patterns, textures and decorations, or bring a sense of harmony to a space through a cohesive and complementary design, there is something for everyone with this trend.
How can homeowners implement the fifth wall trend into their homes?
“With so much opportunity for experimentation, the possibilities are endless when it comes to decorating your ceiling. Materials that would typically be associated with walls and floors, such as wood panelling or tiles, make for a really unique and striking aesthetic and are a clever way to challenge expectations.”
“Similarly, wallpaper, artwork and murals have also become increasingly stylish options to decorate your ceiling with and create an air of decadence and sophistication. Faux effect wallpapers are especially great at this as they can recreate the appearance of luxury and high-end materials.”
“One of the most eye-catching ways to decorate your ceiling can be achieved with just a simple splash of paint. Whilst there is no right or wrong way to approach painting your ceiling, it can help to take into account how this will work with the overall design scheme of your room.”
“Matching the colour of your ceiling to that of the other four walls can help incorporate this feature seamlessly with the rest of the room and form a more complete design. Alternatively, make a bold statement by opting for contrasting or accent colours. This will draw the eye upwards and make your ceiling the centrepiece of your living space.”
