Last year was all about reds, metallic and black. Unlike the color trends, this year has taken a more lifestyle-appropriate approach to color, falling in line with the Pantone Color of the Year: Living Coral. Here are the top color trends for 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Our homes have gone from statements to living spaces. With the demands of email, text, work, kids and more, so many homeowners are trying to get a relaxing and rejuvenating space in their home. To get you started with your color choices, here are the colors for 2019.<\/p>\n<h2>Woodlands<\/h2>\n<p>Many painters are choosing to take a nod from the woods when choosing their color palette. It might not be feasible to spend time in the wilderness, but that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t bring the colors of it indoors. Popular choices include mushroom grays and fern greens.<\/p>\n<h2>Coral for Energy<\/h2>\n<p>Pantone\u2019s color of the year has made its way to walls.

When it\u2019s paired with wooden furniture, it\u2019s like you are hanging in a cabin in the forest. It\u2019s also a shade that is intrinsically neutral, equally shared by genders.<\/p>\n<h2>Saturated Colors<\/h2>\n<p>The vivid colors of last year have been replaced by deeply saturated colors like deep green, charcoal, navy and blue. They are good ways to use dark colors in a room like a kitchen without going for traditional black or peppercorn. When using these colors, it\u2019s important to be sure the room has an abundance of natural light. Otherwise you\u2019ll face the room feeling small.<\/p>\n<h2>Barely Pink<\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019re not talking about a baby pink, this pink is so barely pink that it only offers a shade or two different than a cream colored wall. Pair it with a traditional cream or white and create a monochromatic look that is equally stylish and livable.<\/p>\n<h2>Digital Colors<\/h2>\n<p>While many homeowners are choosing to go back to nature, some are going digital. Because of the popularity of smart technology, home colors are following suit. Intensely vivid shades with high intensity are on the rise to give homes a strangely familiar feel.<\/p>\n<h2>Misty Blue<\/h2>\n<p>Blue are moving from vivid to soft, hazy blue. With gray undertones, the overall feeling of the room is serene and spa-like. Some include a touch of purple to create the calming feel.<\/p>\n<h2>Uplifting Yellow<\/h2>\n<p>Bold yellows and oranges, are giving homeowners an option to pair warm colors with the calming blues, beiges and pinks. When used as a subtle trim or accent wall, the color is the perfect match for a cool room to make it more inviting.<\/p>\n<h2>Off-Cream<\/h2>\n<p>Minimalism is in, and that goes for your color choices too. As we move to live in less clutter, colors are taking the less is more approach as well. Creams, whites, grays and other barely there colors are rising in popularity.<\/p>\n<h2>Soft Terracotta<\/h2>\n<p>The southwest is taking over the whole country. The outdoors are coming inside with the elemental color from the natural south western natural landscape. It\u2019s a warm and inviting color that creates a contemporary room.<\/p>\n<h2>Bright Citrus<\/h2>\n<p>Lime, Orange, Lemon and other citrus colors in oh-so-bright colors are making their way into people\u2019s homes and hearts. The uplifting colors match with homeowner\u2019s empowered attitudes. It\u2019s the color of \u201cI can do anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Jewel Tones<\/h2>\n<p>Jewel tones in vibrant hues are perfect for pops of color throughout your home. A vibrant emerald island, amethyst bookcase or sapphire bench creates drama in a room with little commitment.<\/p>\n<h2>Almost White<\/h2>\n<p>While all white is a go-to for a lot of painters, 2019 will be known as the year of the almost whites. These colors are subtly tinted to create a more dramatic feel in a white room that matches with any style.<\/p>\n<h2>Gray Tones<\/h2>\n<p>Gray in general is an introspective shade.
