What are the trending paint colors for 2021?
Modern Grays and Whites
More than 90% of interior designers swear by white paint for living rooms. I have heard many homeowners call white a dull color, however, this year calmness and serenity is the hot trend.
One of the biggest benefits of white and grey’s is that they are timeless and highly versatile, allowing for a great foundation in any interior. You can effortlessly match any color furniture or change your accent colors with each season.
Soft Muted Neutrals
You can never go wrong with neutrals, especially in 2021. Today, mint green, golden yellow, mushroom, and hazelnut are some of the hottest colors. They can create a nostalgic, calm feel when used on wood furniture, cabinetry, shelving or walls.
If you want a continuous color for the entire house, consider a muted neutral. Valspar’s color marketing manager, Sue Kim stated, “Our homes have become offices, entertainment centers, and classrooms, which means the colors, sights and sounds in our rooms have an even bigger impact on our daily lives.” Soft muted neutrals will make your home feel cozy and inviting.
Sharp Blacks
Interior designers and homeowners alike are moving towards darker colors. For instance, today, you are likely to see many home designs with ceilings that are charcoal-colored. Sharp black is a trending living room, office or dining room paint color. The rich colors look great with contrasting white, yellow or cream trim or bright furniture pieces.
Are you looking to create a quiet haven? If that is the case, you need to go with soft greens, they can have a grounding effect in homes. Since we are spending more time in our homes, soft greens will make your living room inviting.
If you prefer something a little livelier, olive green will never let you down. It is a perfect choice for a mid-century modern living spaces. Potential buyers will fall in love with the ambiance created by soft greens.
