What are the popular paint colors now?
All our walls are an off-white right now, so we have a clean slate to work with. I tend to like more neutral colors such as beiges and greys, but I am open to anything right now.
Re: What are the popular paint colors now?
The color you pick should be something you love, not whats popular. Also take into consideration the use of the room, natural light, trim colors, furniture colors, etc.
I have used Kilim Beige from Sherwin Williams. It's a nice neutral color but a bit on the light side. I'm a big fan of greys. You can go warm or cool tones.
I think you need consider of your house decoration style,include the furniture in your house ,then try to choose other special color ,popular color do not stand for it's suitable
I use Kilim Beige all the time! I tend to use it as a spray out or base color.
I also suggest going with colors that appeal to you. Pick a color from a piece of artwork or throw pillow. Use colors that make you happy but don't be afraid to step out of the beige/tan/grey box!
If you are selling, go with basic colors in main, harder to paint areas and add pop to smaller rooms-that way it will jazz it up but if buyers aren't in to your color selections, repainting doesn't seem overwhelming,
Right now I really enjoy Smoke Embers from Benjamin Moore:
