CANADIAN HOME TRENDS & BEHR ®
®
One of the best parts of spring is making our homes feel new again . Recently , we caught up with Kimiko Willgress , a home décor enthusiast and owner of the Indie Home , an artisanal home goods store based in Halifax , NS , who completed an outdoor refresh project using BEHR PREMIUM ® Waterproofing Stain & Sealer in Cordovan Brown . Cordovan Brown is Behr Paint Company ’ s first-ever Exterior Stain Colour of the Year . This rich satisfying hue offers timeless appeal for a fresh outdoor space .
“ We were convinced our deck had reached its end , but it turned out only a few boards needed replacing ,” said Kimiko Willgress . “ Thanks to the assistance of BEHR , we were able to revive our deck . We used the BEHR PREMIUM ® Semi-Transparent Waterproofing Stain & Sealer in Cordovan Brown , to help create a timeless and sophisticated look .”
Available in solid colour and semi-transparent , BEHR PREMIUM ® Waterproofing Stain & Sealer in Cordovan Brown is versatile enough to be used by DIYers , designers , and professionals to tackle any outdoor residential or commercial project . " The results exceeded our expectations , and I ' m absolutely thrilled with how it turned out . To complement the new deck , we also gave our bench and pot a quick makeover with BEHR PREMIUM TM Spray Paint in Ashen Tan .”
An Exterior Stain Colour of the Year diversifies Behr ® colour trend forecasting and delivers on the colour leadership consumers can expect from BEHR .

Wood stains hold just as much power as paint . They offer a polished finish on decks , porches , doors and more , which can enhance the overall curb appeal .
Paint and stain can play off each other beautifully , creating a balanced colour scheme on exterior surfaces and structures . Pairing darker wood tones like Cordovan Brown with soft natural paint colours creates contrast and compatibility for any style .
