90% of the time these “ colours of the year” really don’t take off too quickly. I work in cabinetry, you really get to see which colours designers are loving and working with IRL. It’s more like “ colours of the decade” VS “of the year”
Agree. Evergreen fog and urbane bronze. Don’t have them in my house but love looking at the colors.
I'd love to see your six most selected colours of the decade; now that would be cool!
@@Kellytalkoooow. Yes.
My friends' new base cabinets are in a custom color very similar to Blue Nova. It was mixed to match the backsplash tile. The counters are white quartz and the upper cabinets are stark white. Very modern coastal - there is a water view from the great room. I'll let them know that they are ahead of the curve :)
Are you kidding? Just about every new house has some form of hideous green either on the cabinets or the walls.
As always, Nick delivers. I have learned so much from his videos in my home design journey. Who else adores this amazing man?
Nick is lovely. He’s the kind of guy you’d wanna hang out with. Hug 🤗
Everybody

To me, color drenching looks like the "Landlord Special", where the owner just indiscriminately paints over everything in sight with one bucket, from ceiling to baseboards... light switches and outlets included! 😅
I’m always reminded of movie and television sets when I see color drenching. I’ve seen peacock blue everywhere in color drenched TV backgrounds.
Yes!!!
Gosh I remember that. Back in the 1970's first apartment vibe. lol
Exactly! In my rental house everything has been painted gray, just not the outlets. 😮
Reminds me of older school buildings. They’d do the same!
There is a funny scene in the 1948 movie Mr Blandings Builds His Dreamhouse, where Myrna Loy is giving specific examples for each shade of paint for the interior rooms (Robins EggBlue, Butter Yellow, etc.). She leaves, the contractor turns to the painter and says, “You got that? Red, yellow, blue, and green.”
😍
o gawd, that would be my son. I'm describing the neighbours exterior as a dark burnt orange and he says "you mean the red one" ... 😵💫
I was building a house the first time I saw that! I swear, my painting contractor thought exactly the same way. We almost came to blows.
😂I think of that movie every time I look at white paint.
Loved that movie and the painters never wrote down the colours. Lol
I "color drenched" my hallway about 20 years ago because it was a small hallway with lots of doors. I thought painting all those frames a contrasting color would make it seem busy, and also, I hate white ceilings. Who knew I was ahead of the trend? Certainly not me! 😂
Same, I also do not like white ceilings
When using a light color in a small space I think it makes sense. I painted one small bathroom sort of a ballerina pink (with glitter added because I think it is fun), I painted the walls and ceiling. It looks very nice. I painted the baseboards white, though they do need to be repainted, I made a mistake with the type of caulk I used. You were ahead of your time!
I need to paint a small wall in a tiny toilet under the stairs (removed a radiator and patched the wall and love the colour that’s in there) and it occurred to me that the ceiling is already the colour of the walls and I ought to go ahead and paint the baseboards the same… it would help with the small space.
I am planning upon painting over my white ceilings. I recently bought my Home and realized how cold and harsh stark white ceilings are.
@@lilolmecj that sounds like fun!
This is always my favourite video of the year and the fact that the "sad beige children" had a cameo made it even better!!
I actually love the teacup rose paired with antique pewter. I love all these colors. That dusty, muted quality is soft and cozy.
Hi Nick, I just wanted to say that I subscribe to about 15 interior designers, but your channel is by far my favorite. I love your taste in design, your great suggestions, how concise your videos are, but most of all I just enjoy your naturalness, acerbic humor and your heart. 😊❤️
He's fantastic!
At the same time I do recommend Alexandra Gater, and Kristen McGowan
You might also try Lone Fox, he’s amazing!
Antique pewter is gorgeous.. I’m with you, okay to be stuck in 2021 for this. Great video Nick
I'd like to paint my great room that color or one similar! Might make it feel less cavernous. It would also look good in the kitchen portion.
Antique pewter is very nice, I also like Topaz. I still have my bedroom stuck in 2021 as well, painted in aegean teal😂.
I agree I'm going to paint my kitchen and I think it will go great with my counter tops

When I saw the colour of the year I was so disappointed. I am not a fan of blue (green lover!) and I really don’t like Blue Nova, so I dismissed the entire palette. But seeing you break it down, and introduce the colours on their own, completely changed my opinion. I love the pink tones, the deep oranges and the green. Thank you for another great video, and for helping me understand the thinking behind the way the palette was conceived!
You must be thrilled with the great variety of greens in clothing. It must be hard to decide which to buy. I wasn’t ever a fan of green, but I am loving it now!
I am with you. Not a fan of blues, love the greens and the pinks. I wasn't surprised when Blue Nova was chosen. When Sherwin Williams chose Upward, it was a sign. I love the combination of pristine and antique pewter
The idea of Nick having "a few words" anything makes me laugh 😂
Edit: On another note this is my favorite video from Nick. I love learning about the sciencey side of colour

Did "Regent Green" just look like black to other people too?
On purple, my husband picked a really pale purple for our bedroom (called Globe Thistle) and a brighter warmer purple for his office (called Lavish Lavender) and they are magnificent. Purple is such an inspiring, magical color (in the right shades), and it's perked up these spaces so nicely. Would absolutely recommend. Purple doesn't have to mean jewel toned or little girl cotton candy.
I worked in a spa that had pale purple and pale yellow shades and it was sooo soothing. I can totally see this for a bedroom.
Interesting! Do you recall if those purple shades were by Pittsburgh Paints, or Sherwin-Williams or? I am seeing those color names by more than one paint company, not surprising - many thanks!
@@lizannepick1773 Pittsburgh
I love purple, so I'm glad Hazy Lilac made the list, and the purple/green combo is up there in my book too, so I appreciate you called it out!
I love the green/purple combo too! So rich looking. Doing plum and dark teal tomorrow in a bedroom. ❤
Check out to Sherwin-Williams colors… One is called solitude, and the other one is called brassy. They are an awesome combination, very bold, color consultant here
We did Ben. Moore's cinnamon slate (a brown based purple) and Creekside green in our last house. Loved it!
@@pootninny Those sound great! Thanks for the tip!

"sad beige children" 🤣 I love your commentary :)
I just refreshed all my rooms, after 22 years of living with what I did when we moved in, for $$$, and I watch HGtV and a very few good channels like this. I do not do trendy-trends. Nevertheless, I have decided that home fashions are a huge contributor to trashing the planet, as well as getting us to part with our money. Love that Nick said at the top, if you like your colors, keep them. But the ripping out of floors, one example, to put in gray (a few years ago) and now putting in light floors, after before the gray, dark floors. Well, hardwood floors used to be more of a mid-range color, and were “in fashion” in color and width, for decades. I am now boycotting hgtv.
Remember that these channels, magazines, and shows have large staff developing more projects and "to do's that people could ever start and complete. Then, they rinse/repeat the process daily, monthly, and weekly, etc. The net result is that their business model can not allow one to have more than a brief interval of equilibrium before they work on making people dissatisfied. Oscar Wilde said, "Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable we are forced to change it every six months." The turnaround time since then has been reduced considerably!
I find that watching those shows makes me more unhappy with my home. When I just keep a tidy, clean home and light some candles I am happier ❤
@@loribethartist6353absolutely, what they never say is, ‘cleaning is the best home decor/design’. I watch a cleaning channel on RUclips - super satisfying.
spot on about home fashion!
ruclips.net/video/rTq4WDrYXX0/видео.html
If you’re a designer, it doesn’t matter what you like/dislike, it’s up to your client. Of course, you can guide them… I really liked how he talked about Topaz + White Dove working with wood flooring/furnishings. Taking flooring into consideration is HUGE. Also, doing a video on what color of flooring is best for your room, lighting, etc., would be a great video, so many choices these days! I’m new to the channel, will look back to see if he’s already done that.
I don't know why purple is considered a hard colour to work with in interior design. I love purple - more specifically purple leaning mauve colours. I find them calming and one of my favorite colours to use and a good compliment with grey! We are actually redoing our bedroom and using Mauve Blush by Benjamin Moore for the walls
I love our purple bedroom and office! It makes those spaces utterly delightful.
Watch Breaking Bad. The main characters sister in law's house has all shades of purple and it is terrible (in my opinion). Proof it's hard to use purple.
@@jalehjuneomg yes! It’s horrendous!!
Mauve and grey were a 1980s color palette
Hi am wanting to do my bathroom purple walls wld grey towels units etc go with it ty
I never thought I could sit and listen to someone discuss paint colors for 16 minutes straight but here we are and it's quite interesting!
This year‘s palette also seems to complement last year‘s palette pretty well. You can pick any one of the bolder colors from the 2022 Benjamin Moore palette and combine it with the more muted colors of this year’s palette.
As someone who painted my bedroom white dove with a cinnamon accent wall a couple of months ago, I am fully on board with this updated color palette!
Loved your analysis in this one. Helpful. On the advice of the Southern Living design editor, I selected Ben Moore's "Ivory White" as the perfect warm white in every light. He was right! I "drenched" my whole house in it before I knew drenching was a thing. Thanks for your insight. You are very enjoyable.
Not a fan of color drenching . However , I do paint outlets & switches the wall color to blend in . Years ago when wallpaper was prominent , I did outlet covers & switch plates in the wallpaper ( again , to blend in ) even to the point of lining up the patterns , then a matching color on the actual outlet if needed . Obsessive ? Perhaps ... but the finished " smooth " look , no visual speed bumps , was worth it ! 🖌🎨
Yes! I hate noticeable outlets!
@@Jan-qv8ku We are kindred spirits ! 😂

The best $300 I ever spent was for a color consultant for my townhouse. She picked a light golden yellow for my living and dining rooms when she saw my MCM tourquoise pottery collection and artwork and teak and similar color furniture, and the way the light shifts over the day. I would never have figured it out by myself, but I haved loved her choice every day. Picking paint based at least partly on the things you love and will keep, and how it will look in different parts of a room in different light makes sense to me, based on how well it turned out for me.
I’m going to be moving into a townhouse soon and it’s already a light yellow, I would love to see how you decorated. What color is your couch? Xo

I painted my kitchen/living room walls “ripe olive” (darkish green) from Sherman Williams back in 2019. Ahead of my time 😊 I still love it
This is my kind of palette. I love soft, desaturated colors, and always warm neutrals. I’m always and forever a soft ivory girl. That’s been my indoor color for over 20 years…so yeah…I’m either dedicated or boring, but I love it. My shade now is less warm/buttery than it was in 2000, so it’s more creamy white…that’s updated for me! Dove White’s always popular. I just change up decor with pops of seasonal color. I will never, ever, ever…live in anything cool, and gray, especially on my walls! You’re right, Nick…this year’s palette is soft, balanced, cohesive…last year was so disjointed & jarring! Only color I liked on it was the Tofino Sunset. That might have been pretty and an interesting “color neutral” in a room…though I’d still just be admiring it from afar, in my warm ivory room. :)
**oops correction, meant “White Dove” above. “Dove White” was actually my color in 2000/ California paints. I wish I’d done White Dove when I repainted in 2019, somehow I only discovered it after we painted, and after I painstakingly perused every ivory! I think I saw it and when it wasn’t like my old Dove White, went over it. I got close with Mountain Peak White, Benjamin Moore, but White Dove does seem softer, a tad warmer.
Orange is SUCH an under-appreciated color in life, fashion and in the home!!
I agree
I guess you didn't grow up in the 70s😂

I was NEVER allowed to paint any walls when I was growing up because we rented. When I bought my first house at 28, I went nuts and painted every room a different color. I miss it 😂. Im definitely a blue girly though. I love a pretty blue on any wall, in any room
Purple can easily work. When I loved with my niece (we're near the same age) we had purple (her favorite color) and green (my favorite color) in spades. It worked beautifully. Tons of wood furniture and black matted metal accents with warm off-white walls kept it cozy but still pretty.
The comment about the Hazy Lilac being cooler and having a little bit of grey doesn't make it scream "Grimace" had me cracking up! 🤣 Please, y'all, tell me someone else caught that and knows who Grimace is (or was, since I'm pretty sure he's long retired).
I see a lot of hate for color drenching BUT I personally love it!! It feels seamless to me and I think it looks amazing with intricate crown molding. I’ll definitely be doing this in my 60’s deco condo 😍 I’m thinking with a muted sage color, gold/brass accents and a bunch of interesting vintage furniture and decor finds ❤
And it's sooooo much easier to paint! No taping! LOL

My favorite has to be the Antique Pewter. I'm a sucker for a good green. I'm looking to redo the walls in our living room and dining room - right now we have this dark wood paneling. I want to go with a slightly warm greige and I think White Dove would be a great ceiling and trim color. I would love to fit in the Antique Pewter somewhere but not sure where it would go yet.
Perhaps in a new sofa or even rich velvet accent pillows, or adjoining walls into both rooms (wall in common) if you have any sort of open floor plan
I like mixing cool and warm colors together. My new scheme after this reno is done will be warm beige and greys( imagine softer tones of Honybee and Gray together on white fabric for curtains and throw rugs) natural maple cabinets, dark granite counters, honey bamboo floors. Some family antiques in dark wood.
I love the color theory lesson content.and seeing how it plays out in design.
I actually still really like 2021 & 2022 🤭 Green is timeless, it never looks dated
When October mist was chosen it was my favorite year of palettes.
This year is just ok, last year, not so good

I love your remark. ‘ I love that for you!’. You just add soo much humour to your vlogs and that’s why we love you. Xx

Hats off to the specialists at Benjamin Moore who developed this exceptional colour palette. It is the Goldilocks of palettes: Just Right.

Somewhere I've seen a beautiful photo of a blue room with lilac curtains and it was STUNNING. I wonder if Blue Nova and Hazy Lilac would work the same way.
A childhood friend’s house was similar to hazy lilac and antique pewter and the combination always stuck with me. I love it and the mood it sets!
I’m also with you, Nick. Stuck in 2021 with the olive-y greens and warm neutrals!
I just painted my 500sq foot living room a very bold blue (I would say a bit more similar to last years starry night). The room has a vaulted ceiling with walls 10' to 16' tall. I have large chunky white trim lots of windows and a big white fireplace and a couple of big white bookshelves. I have accented with black leather and wood furniture (leaning towards the topaz warm brown) and lots of plants. So to say I am a fan of the blue and the topaz would be an understatement. I think these colours are gorgeous this year! I would actually love to submit photos or videos for Nick to critique!
I love how cohesive everything is this year and how well it could go with last year’s colors. Personally, I’m a saturated color person so I don’t like these colors but I can appreciate that people want color without the loud commitment.
I remember the trend in the 90's of huge houses with steep roofs and many roof angles. I went to some open houses and was shocked by the size compared to the "cheap" finishes. My daughter and her husband bought a house of that era and literally the kitchen cupboards fell apart. I was renting a place near by that was built in the 30's and the kitchen cupboards were great, still. They are now living in a smaller home in the DC area that was built with much care in the 70's (with horrible kitchen renovation.) It has a family size fireplace where the whole wall is covered in beautiful stone. (All of the houses there have that stone outside or inside.) Those touches make a neighborhood sing! So in the 90's size mattered. But their current house will be loved (hopefully with a kitchen renovation in the future.)
Hi Nick. I’d love to see some advice about Christmas indoor and outdoor decor. Thanks.
Colour drenching sounds like the current fashion trend of head to toe monochromatic colour. "Tints, tones and shades." Love it.
All the colors represented are lovely. I particularly like the Pristine/Topaz/Teacup Rose combination, and the Polar Sky/Blue Nova, as well. But again, they're all very pretty and an improvement, I think, over last year's choices.
I love colors of the year. Makes me want to paint.
Would love to see a room designed using hazy lilac and antique pewter. Those two colors are so refreshing to me. A nice change from the beige onslaught we have been dealing with.
I like these colors! I actually really like Honeybee. I feel like it could look really cool in a more retro space. I also like Pristine. I think peachy off whites don’t get enough love. Especially since n north-facing rooms or rooms with fewer windows, an off white with a slightly peach undertone in an eggshell finish can give the illusion of more sunlight bouncing around the room. Whereas if you painted the same room a cool-toned color or even a stark white it could look cold or sterile and a more brown toned off white could make it look dirty. (I’m also a fan of Sherwin Williams Ibis White for this reason. Painted a north-facing room this once and it immediately brightened it up.)
Totally agree!
In love with the White dove, Topaz and Antique pewter!
Woah, I must have missed the video where Nick painted his Hale Navy wall. I’m going to miss it😭😭😭
I'd love to hear you talk more in this manner about color theory & color matching. I found it so interesting the way you reviewed the colors and gave us the theory background with your opinions. I most likely will rewatch this video, but hope you make more.
I think Antique Pewter should have been THE colour of the year
Yes! It’s beautiful
I have the soft blue-gray color in my bedroom and a very soft sage all over the rest of the house (open concept)
Love your choices ! I too have the same bedroom color & also a variation of it paired w/ some soft sage green & cream thruout the house . Living in the country , I like bringing the outside colors inside - blue sky , green trees , wood tones . Soothing ... 💙💚🤎
Thank you Nick for explaining the color process so well. It's fun to look at color but nicer to know how it actually works.
I didn't know there were colors of the year, lol. Yellow is my favorite. For wall paint, I prefer a calm yellow, I don't want to have to wear sunglasses around my home. I don't get tired of it, mainly because lots of other colors go with it. :)
Years ago I painted all of my walls in a very soft butter yellow. It is a very clean, and calming colour. I agree everything goes with it.
Thanks for the shout out to purple. I think it is so sophisticated. Makes me happy and calm.
This is a wonderful video, one of your best as you explain the color and your appreciation of it. I just shared it right now. Getting better and better every day, Nick. Thanks so much.
Omg. Finally! After suffering through the grey years and not buying anything, I can once again enjoy interior design. I have Benjamin Moore paint colours everywhere in my home because they have the best colours.
I like Antique Pewter. I'm going through a sage stage with my accessories.
When you color drench do you paint the ceiling that color also?
The color drenched rooms I’ve seen do paint the ceiling in the same color, as well. The floor is the only exception.
@@DNAConsultingDetectives Thanks.
Blue Nova fan here. I really like the two blues together.
Really interesting! I’ve never thought about combining colors that way. I learned a lot 😀
For me, brown is just dark orange, like burgundy is dark red and navy is dark blue. Love the blues - Blue Nova and Polar Sky. I’m not a fan of all white walls, but Pristine looks like a color for me to consider for my walls.
Thankyou very much for this wonderful breakdown. I love your use of the colour picker it really helps demistify everything.
I just did a personal colour analysis and typed myself as a soft autumn. I decided to use this new knowledge to repaint my small house in colours that would suit me. It turns out that I’ve just anticipated the Benjamin Moore colour palette. Could not be happier.
Honeybee + Teacup Rose = strawberry lemonade
I really like this year’s colors. I love the teacup rose and polar sky are gorgeous. All, of the colors seem more sustainable over time as well. Thanks, Nick, I always love your videos!
hey Nick I love you so much! Thanks for your posts! I LOVE the new color of the year and I'm painting my bedroom with it!
I’m in love with the hazy lilac and antique pewter! 💚💜
How do you feel about painting ceilings other than white?
Would love to see a short video about the Sherwin Williams color palette.
Great video Nick. You have a way of educating in a relaxed, fun way. Love all of your videos!
Hi! Luv the colors! More warmth color! Thanks! Enjoy your weekend!
Great analysis, Nick-- one of your best videos yet.
I love topaz, especially as paired with the wood tones in the staircase photo. Laughing to myself as I used several similar colors from this pallet when decorating my living room in 2022.
Thank you, dear Nick, for sharing your well versed dialogue of the 2024 colors. I’m a warm gal in Alabama and have had three of the “new” warm shades (different names) on my walls for several years. I truly love seeing the new shades dictated each year and left curious as to how many coats of paint followers have on their walls- those who want to be on trend each year. I’m convinced to do a refresh of same colors and paint trim too. My husband will be not so thrilled when I tell him. Thanks again for keeping your viewers on trend. I adore your channel!
Thanks Nick! Learned so much from this episode. Like the pairing discussion.
I’d be interested in you own palette choices for this year- what colors would you pick - where would they ideally fit? What home decor products would you color or not - just for fun
Yes, you should release yours in tandem every year 😊
I also would love to see a video like that
I definitely would love to see a video on Nick's picks.
Always love your videos. And I love this slightly less saturated palate
I totally agree with you! These colors are very blending, calming yet very pretty color. I can use this pallet!
I'm thinking about "Color Drenching" in my family room renovation and now feel like I may have the courage to do so. I also have been looking at a cream-olive/moss color scheme so I was absolutely thrilled when Nick said he loved the Pristine-Antique Putty pairing. Whoo Hoo! Now I'm getting excited to really get going on my project!! Thanks Nick! :D
The great thing about paint is that it can make such a huge impact and if you wind up not liking something, it's easily undone. The Antique Pewter is such a beautiful color. Good luck and have fun!
Congrats on almost hitting 500K subscribers!
Amazing video as always ❤ love your channel so much
A whole room in those colors would drive me crazy very, very quickly. The best is the polar one. 😊
Thank you for this thorough and well thought out video!!
‘I love that for you, but it’s not for most people’ That made me laugh. I have no plan to repaint a smidge of my house but so enjoyed this video.
It makes me happy to see your enthusiasm about color; I could listen to you talk about color theory all day! What was that thing you touched on, "hex code" or something? I didn’t quite catch what you said. A thing you can plunk colors into and it shows them to you on the colorwheel? You said you didn't want to bore us with the details and I'm like, "please, please do!" *I would love a video on that please!* I love so many colors, it's almost excruciating to choose one, and then choose another one to go with the first one. Ugh! I definitely like this year's pallette over last year, but I do like the blues in each. I really liked 2021's pallette too. I'd love to see more content on color and how to put them together, and under what type of lighting, please, please, please! You're amazing at explaining!
Thanks Nick!
You are a fantastic teacher, I love these kind of videos!
This palette spoke to me. I’ve been using white dove a lot as I’m working my way through renovating the house. A blue similar to blue nova went on the bedroom and office walls. Polar blue went into the kids room. Accent pieces have been painted similar to topaz. All that is missing is my soft green, but the yellow has a similar feel.
Colour drenched my bedroom in Essex Green and it’s my cozy sleepy cave. 10/10 want to hibernate there over the winter. Helps in the summer too when it’s light out til nearly midnight (yay for being 53 degrees north).
I love dark bedroom colors
This is such an encouraging and thoughtful review. I have followed you off and on for a couple of years now. I appreciate how you articulate the complex subject of colour and how it makes us feel. I was not aware of the 2024 Benjamin Moore colour palette, and when I clicked on this review, I had literally just finished filling an online cart with sample sizes of Farrow and Ball wall paints I have taken forever (years) to pick out. The samples I chose align well with the good balance of warms and cools, and "just right" tonal qualities that you highlight here. While I've chosen a different brand (I came here as part of a search to find which of the Benjamin Moore whites might work well as ceiling and trim paint with the F&B walls), the insights you offer here really validate the tone and the colours I want to go with on the walls. I already have a violet-grey F&B Dove Tale in one bedroom that I am going to keep as it remains as intriguing as it was when first painted 10 years ago. You can imagine how happy I was to see that this BM palette includes something from the purple family. Thanks again for your helpful insights on the many factors that affect how humans feel about all things colour.
Love these soft colors for 2024. Colors you can live in.
I literally just bought an orange tone much like the Topaz you showed for my bedroom and a rich brown named Turkish Coffee that I fell in love with for my living room. I do prefer a more traditional paint scheme of trim being lighter than my walls and the honey bee is similar to the color I chose for my kitchen and was agonizing over what tone to use for my trim, think the white dove will compliment all of my color choices, Thank You Nick I always have fun with your way of presenting your videos.
I love this time of year! Color, color everywhere! 😊
Please, please, please, do a PSA for builders/contractors to cease and desist with the gray floors and kitchens. I am begging you. Hopefully that hazy lilac will help people.
I love these colors. I usually don’t care for “colors of the year.” Much more nature inspired. Thank you!
For me, this year's colors are much more livable than last year's, even though some of the colors are similar. I especially like Antique Pewter, it behaves almost as a neutral, doesn't it? I like when you can't clearly identify color as "grey", "green", "brown", etc., but is rather like a blend. Great video, as usual. Thank you.
Those blended colors are very moody (in a good way)
I believe Cloud White is BM's most sold colour here in Canada, mostly because it's used for cabinets, ceilings, and baseboards, but Dove White is close behind.
(I worked at BM during the Revere Pewter years.)
I did as well! I cringed at the word griege.
I love this palette! I am buying my first house and this speaks really well to the moodboards I have, especially blue nova, Antique pewter, teacup rose and pristine.
Thank you for your content. We have slate floors and have been searching for the right colours to use, maybe 2024's will be the year!
i think when an orange has the brown undertone it goes towards clay which is a natural element and goes really good with wood as another natural element.
Really love all the color wheel analysis here! You really demonstrated how coherent this palate is
