Selecting a new color of paint for one's home is a daunting task, which is why [Behr's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hidden-gem) 'Color in Action' [pop-up fuses technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/changeroomcolor) with customer service to aid consumers in this long-term decision.

The pop-up was inspired by the paint brand's color of the year, dubbed 'Blueprint.' The walls of the pop-up were painted this gorgeous blue tone and designed with products found at home hardware. While walking around the space's interior, guests were able to admire the new color, while shop through interior design pieces curated by [The Home Depot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skelly).

The collaborative effort was both interactive and immersive while offering consumers a more convenient and inspirational way to re-design one's home.
