This just in: Lowe's House of Curators launches with interior designer and fashion icon Iris Apfel to celebrate Lowe's 100th birthday this year. The retailer tapped Apfel — known for her instantly recognizable, eclectic, and colorful style — to help consumers drive bold décor items that mirror her unique aesthetic, making it the perfect time to freshen up any outdated spaces.
Featured in Apfel's curations will be Lowe's first-ever Centennial Color Palette, which stares back at quintessential hues from each decade to inspire consumers to use the colors in new and modern ways.
Whether your taste gravitates towards the vibrant blues and reds of the 1920s or the relaxed earth tones of the 1970s, this palette will highlight fresh ways to incorporate legendary color into home design.
Beyond giving each color new life, Apfel also curated her palette for additional inspiration. Available in four different curations, each style mixes texture, color, and pattern across paint, textile, and furnishings to develop bold looks in every space.
So whether you're hoping to swap out old outdoor furniture or breathe new life into your bathroom, here are four Iris Apfel-approved ways to do so.
1. Bring Palm Beach to your backyard
Transport yourself to an outdoor oasis filled with lush tropical plants, sun-warmed patio vibes, and opulent pops of color, inspired by Iris's time in Palm Beach.
2. Indulge in Modern Maximalism
Embrace Apfel’s mindset that 'more is more and less is a bore' by incorporating small details with big personality into each space.
3. Create a statement powder room
Express yourself confidently by mixing colors, textures, and patterns with statement pieces fit for every space, from eclectic furniture to Iris’s signature paint palette.
4. Choose a bold Centennial Color Palette
As a way to commemorate Iris and Lowe’s 100th birthdays, this all-new limited-edition paint palette will celebrate key colors that have shown up in iconic ways over the decades, from the 1920s to the 2010s.
