Warm Neutrals are Back
Posted on March 3, 2022
Over the past several years, shades of gray have taken the paint world by storm. This cool toned neutral became widely popular due to its versatility and diverse range of undertones. It will still be seen in many homes over the next several years. However, what ever happened to warm neutrals? Our team at CertaPro Painters® of Cedarhill-Seagoville has been seeing many homeowners adding them back into their home. This trend will probably continue throughout the next decade and we love it.
In 2009, the most popular neutral paint was a beige shade that had a warm tan undertone. In contrast, in 2019 the most popular paint was gray. This is due to the fact that cool tones, such as gray, have grown to be seen as much more modern and stylish. However, if you are a beige paint lover, don’t worry! Warmer neutrals are and will continue to be slowly creeping back into more and more homes. So, which warm neutrals are considered trendy again? Keep reading to find out!
Beige – Beige is perhaps making the biggest comeback of all the warm neutrals. Specifically, dark beige. It adds depth to the room without it being too bold of a color choice. Earthy décor and the use of deep greens and whites is a theme we see in many of today’s homes. Beige walls are the perfect color to pair with earthy décor and this is probably the reason it is making such a comeback!
Brown – Cozy vibes are something we all strive for and brown walls can give us that. Brown works particularly well in smaller rooms, making them look much larger than they actually are. If you feel that every wall being painted brown is too much of a statement for you, then consider a brown accent wall. Many people overlook this color, thinking it is boring. But it is far from it! It brings friendly, earthy style into any room.
Off-White – Off-white paint is a perfect substitute for getting that all white modern look. The warm undertones make it more welcoming and better suited for our homes than just a white splashed room. You pair any bright, fun colors with off-white walls as well.
Terracotta – These warm orange shade will increase in popularity. Since earth tones are also a huge trend in home design right now, this is not surprising. Orange is such a beautiful color that bring life and warmth into the space.
