If you’re looking for inspiring interior paint ideas to take your home to the next level, the trusted design team at Builders is here to help. Check out these 6 trendy interior paint ideas.
Elevating Neutrals
Who says that a neutral color scheme has to be boring? Modern neutrals are all about bringing warmth and personality to your home rather than making it feel stark or drab. That means that with the right neutrals, you can help your living spaces feel cozy and inviting while still looking as clean and polished as those you see in advertisements. Even better, a neutral color scheme provides the perfect blank slate upon which different patterns, textures, and colors can easily be incorporated and swapped out. Not sure which neutral color would work best in your home? Don’t fret! Here are some of our favorite Valspar neutral paint colors that we know you’ll love, too:
- Polar White: Crisp, balanced, and versatile, this color can easily be used in any area of your home.
- Malted Milk: Natural, warm, and well-rounded, this color is sure to add personality to your living room, dining room, or office.
- Ebony Keys: Glossy, sophisticated, and dramatic, this color can effortlessly take your home to the next level.
Green, Green, Green
From vibrant, tropical patterns to earthy, calming details, you can expect to find the color green in all things interior design this year, and interior paint is no exception. Just take one step outdoors and you’ll see why this dynamic color has become and remained a decorating staple in recent years: it goes with everything, as proven by the beauty and versatility of nature. With this in mind, don’t be afraid to embrace the color green to suit your particular home design aspirations. Whether you choose to go with a subtle seafoam green for your bedroom, a contemporary Kelly green for an accent wall in your family room, or a moody sage green for your dining room, you can’t go wrong with using the color playfully and unapologetically in the years to come.
Monochromatic Vibes
Never underestimate the power a fresh coat of paint can have on a space. If you’d love to make a bold statement in a room but aren’t sure how to, consider making an impact by painting parts of the room all the same color. While choosing the same color to adorn the walls, trim, and ceiling of a space may sound unusual, you may be surprised by the result. When using the right color, going all-in with head-to-toe color can make an otherwise ordinary space feel inspiring, inviting, and dramatic.
Go Bold with Reds
Red is a color that hasn’t been used recently in interior design as often as more understated shades, such as blue or green, but it’s certainly making its comeback. While pale pinks and blushes have reigned supreme in years past, they’re being replaced by saturated palettes that are rich and impactful. If you think that red isn’t the color for you, think again. Rather than the primary red that typically comes to mind, the reds of modern home design are much more interesting and full-bodied. You can’t go wrong with either of these Valspar colors:
- Classic Red: Handsome and traditional, this color can help you add a bold yet welcoming touch to your living room or home office.
- Quite Red: Vibrant and energizing, your guests won’t soon forget spending time in your home when they see this color on the walls.
Prioritize Tranquility
Your home should feel like your own personal sanctuary. After all, it’s where you go to rest, relax, and entertain. Because of this, the colors, furnishings, and home decor you choose to surround yourself with can have a tremendous impact on the way you feel when you’re at home. If your living spaces aren’t already exuding the calming tranquility that you desire, it’s time to make a change. Fortunately, achieving the relaxing ambiance that you have in mind is as simple as updating the paint on your walls. Check out these Valspar paint colors that can help bring style and peacefulness to any room in your home:
- Mint Whisper: You’ll feel like you’re at a private beach resort when you incorporate this eye-catching yet relaxing shade of greenish-blue in your bedroom.
- Penelope: Subtle yet stylish, this color is the perfect mix of richness and understated elegance.
Embrace Color
While the ever-popular minimalist home decor trend of the past inspired professional interior designers and everyday homeowners alike to whitewash their living spaces in an attempt to bring understated elegance to their homes, color is making a big comeback in virtually every area of interior design. Along with adding more visual intrigue and personality to your house, painting your walls with thoughtful colors can also serve practical functions, such as making a space appear bigger, creating a focal point, or breaking up open-floor plans into distinct areas.
