Introducing Behr’s Exterior Stain Colour of the Year: Cedar – a warm, earthy, and versatile hue inspired by the natural tones of cedarwood. Aptly named, Cedar captures the essence of nature with its rich, rustic appeal for a sophisticated and timeless aesthetic. With its light wood tone, Cedar complements a wide range of architectural styles – from contemporary and minimalist to farmhouse and mid-century modern. Its warmth enhances home exteriors for a welcoming and elevated look.

Cedar is unveiled alongside Behr's second annual Curb Appeal Collection, a curated selection of 45 on-trend exterior paints, stains, and spray paints designed to elevate the look of your home. The Curb Appeal Collection takes the guesswork out of choosing exterior colours – whether you’re planning a full home refresh or tackling smaller projects like painting your front door or window trim.
