All of a sudden colors are supposed to be “dusty”. Dusty colors. Which means that they aren’t clear colors, but “dusty”, and have lost some of their brilliance.
Those colors seem to have spread to everywhere in interior design. Particularly for textiles. I noticed it when I recently bought a new table-cloth for the kitchen-table. The color on it is called dusty blue.
It could as well be called dirty colors… or? Dusty colors?
I actually like the dusty blue table-cloth I bought for the kitchen-table (or I wouldn’t have bought it). The material is oilcloth. Had to change the very colorful one with flowers I’ve had for some time as that one didn’t go well with my new carpet. This one does.
Some of those dusty color shades are nice, but… I wouldn’t want to have too many dusty colors around. They are so dulled-down…
