How to Find the Ideal Paint Color for Your Living Room

Has renovating your living room been on your house project to-do list for way too long? Here at CertaPro Painters, we are experts at providing professional painting advice and services. We understand just how difficult it can be to find the right color for each of your interior spaces. With the living room being a popular family gathering place, you will want to make sure you get the color right. Below are a few of our tips for choosing the perfect living room paint color.

Find Your Design Inspiration

There are many places you can look for paint color inspiration. From traditional home magazines to Pinterest, there is an unending amount of inspiration out there to choose from. When you first start to search for a living room paint color, it may be helpful to select an overall theme to match your current decor. For example, a modern farmhouse theme may opt for airy neutrals over bold and dynamic paint colors. However, if you are into ultra-modern design pops of black and red can be quite a fun addition to your space.

It all goes back to your overall design theme and vision. Once you’ve decided to invest in an interior painting service, our team would be happy to provide you with a free color consultation. This service exists to make sure you are happy with your color choice before the first coat of paint is even applied.

Consider the Era of Your Home

Do you live in a Historic home? This is one time where going more traditional in terms of paint color selection may work out in your favor. If your home is classic and timeless, going with paint colors that accentuate the natural character of your home can be simply beautiful. Maintaining a historic home can be a lot of work, but our painters have the experience to update any size or style of home in the local service area.

Create Positive Vibes Through Color

It is true that different paint colors can create different environments. Blue paint can add a soothing feel to your living room, while a cheery color like yellow can add a touch of excitement. This is just one extra element to consider when it comes to choosing the best paint color for your living room.

Consider the Flow from one Room to Another

It may be the case that your living room opens right into other rooms or is visible through wide framed room openings from the dining room or kitchen. In this case, you should make sure that your color choice harmonizes with its surrounding rooms and hallways. If your heart is set on a particular shade you may want to take the added step of painting some surrounding rooms along with it so there is a related and complementary flow between one room and the next.
