What Do These Popular Paint Color Trends Say about You and Your Home?

Are you painting your home but aren’t sure which color trends speak to you? Worried a trendy color you love won’t send the right message about you and your home? Want some advice about choosing a paint color for your home from expert Ann Arbor Painters?

While trends come and go, looking to them as a source of inspiration for an update to your home is a wise choice. You probably don’t want to paint your home the Pantone color of the year, but exploring color trends and the message these colors project could lead you to the ideal color for your home. Read on to learn what two current color trends, neutral and jewel tones can do for your home and what they say about you!

Neutral

If you automatically associate the neutral color palette with boring, you’re really missing out! Done without much thought, choosing neutral colors can end up feeling a little lackluster, but it doesn’t take much to help neutral colors stand out. Easily create some visual interest with contrasting neutrals and variations in texture. A few expert touches and neutral color choices for your home exterior send the message of timeless elegance.

Neutral tones send the message of permanence like marble and stone. As the resident of the home, these colors suggest you’re practical, relaxed, classic, and earthy. You can also create a more fun vibe by keeping neutral colors as your backdrop while going bold with accents and décor that you can easily change as often as you want. 

Jewel

It can feel like a risk going with bright and bold jewel tones for your home. Colors like ruby, sapphire, and emerald don’t blend in; they stand out like a beacon of light. But with a professional touch and the right tone, your house will not stick out like a sore thumb. Pair your color with simple neutrals and minimal or very well maintained landscaping to let the jewel tone shine without being overbearing. 

Send the message of creativity and confidence with your choice in a jewel tone for your home. These colors can be as elegant and classic as any neutral tone, with the added benefit of incredible depth and instant visual interest. You’ll feel inspired every time you park in your driveway with a jewel tone adorning your house. 

Let the trends of today speak to you and help you pick a color for your home that will last. At the very least, exploring trends can help you figure out what you don’t want!
