Cordovan Brown, the first-ever Exterior Wood Stain Color of the Year from Behr Paint Company, is a profoundly pleasing hue with timeless appeal for a fresh outdoor environment—just in time for spring.
The wood stain transforms both on its own and when combined with beige, gray, and warm whites, such as Behr’s 2023 Paint Color of the Year, Blank Canvas.
Cordovan Brown is a timeless wood stain that may be utilized by DIYers, designers, and experts on any outdoor residential or commercial project. The deep color goes well with a variety of architectural types, from traditional to modern.
“Our goal is to make the color selection process easier, so projects can get done quicker,” said Jodi Allen, Behr’s Global Chief Marketing Officer. “Announcing our first-ever exterior stain color of the year diversifies our color trend forecasting and delivers on the color leadership consumers can expect from Behr.”
The 2023 Exterior Stain Color of the Year is available exclusively at The Home Depot in a variety of BEHR products, including the #1 rated exterior stain, according to a leading independent consumer publication, BEHR PREMIUM Semi-Transparent Waterproofing Exterior Stain, BEHR PREMIUM ADVANCED DECKOVER, BEHR Solid Color House & Fence Wood Stain, and BEHR DECKPLUS.
“We believe that wood stains have the same impact as paint. They provide a polished appearance on decks, porches, doors, and other surfaces, which can improve the overall curb appeal “Erika Woelfel, Behr’s Vice President of Color & Creative Services, agreed. “Paint and stain may work nicely together to create a harmonious color scheme on exterior surfaces and structures. When deeper wood tones, such as Cordovan Brown, are combined with soft natural paint colors, they provide contrast and compatibility for any design.”
