5 Color Trends in Interior Paint

For months and months, you’ve stared at the walls around you as you’ve worked from home. Perhaps you’re seeing chips or cracks in the paint, or maybe you’re just tired of the same old, drab color. It’s time to change it up, but how can you decide which color to put on the walls when there seems to be endless options? Here are some color trends in interior paint that have risen in popularity in 2021 to help you in your decision.

Soothing Blues

Don’t you love seeing a perfectly peaceful blue sky or sitting by the ocean? After such a stressful year, everyone could use some soothing, which blue is classically known for. Shades of blue, even deeper shades, create a calmer tone for the room, allowing you to turn bedrooms or other spaces into retreats from the craziness of the outside world.

Serene Pastels

If you want every room to have a relaxed feeling, you don’t have to stick with blue. You can branch out to other serene pastel colors, which are still uplifting and happy. Pastel shades of green and light neutrals can all evoke a sense of peace, making your home the perfect oasis.

A Cue from Nature

You’ve likely spent much more time inside than usual over the past year and a half. It can be refreshing to bring the outdoors into your home through shades of paint imitating nature. The best part about using a “natural” paint color is that there are so many to choose from. Other than browns and greens, there are rich yellows, blues, burnt rust, and much more!

Luxurious Aubergine and Saffron

In 2021, two specific colors make a bold statement of luxury: aubergine and saffron. Although a purplish hue, aubergine reads a lot like a neutral, which makes it usable in many different homes and settings. It would be the perfect background color to go with many kinds of prints and various textures. On the other hand, saffron has a more international and adventurous feel to it and goes well with many other colors.

Good Ol’ Neutrals

No matter what year it is, you won’t be too far off if you choose a classic neutral color for the walls. Right now, however, whites and light neutrals are ideal because of their flexibility. In other words, with a light neutral, you can change your patterns or color schemes much more easily than with a bolder shade.

Ultimately, your paint color can help set the tone for your spaces, whether you want them to feel more exciting or more relaxing. By keeping these trends in mind, you can turn your house into a comfortable home, even if the pandemic continues to keep you working there for a while longer.
