Our Complete Guide to Painting Rooms in Your Home

Each room in your home has a different purpose and, therefore, requires a different approach to painting. While living rooms and kitchens are spaces for high energy and welcoming guests, areas such as the bedroom and home office require a much different feel. Paint is a major factor in shaping the way a room makes you feel. Our color consultants use their years of experience and color psychology to make sure each room looks and feels exactly the way you want it to. Here, our professional painters share just a fraction of their knowledge with you so you can start planning interior painting in the different areas of your home!

Neutral Gray

Gray is the new neutral. Long gone is beige and white is out, so go for this new, easy to work with favorite. The modern color is a great base to create a pulled-together room. Gray has replaced white as a staple color, be it barely there or deeply dark.

Pastel Green

Green is known to improve vision, due to the fact that it is the easiest color on the human eye. People used to relax in “green rooms”. There is a reason it is one of the most popular decorating colors!

Easy Blue

The color blue is known to soothe the mind and promote physical relaxation. It helps reduce blood pressure and heart rate and people tend to be more productive in blue rooms.

Bathroom Painting Ideas

The bathroom is the smallest and most private room in your home, which usually means it is easy to neglect when it comes to decorating, especially painting. However, this intimate space deserves a comfortable feel and with the help of a fresh coat of paint, your bathroom can be attractive and welcoming. Adding color to any size bathroom is a sure way to enhance the overall appearance and mood of the room. Whether you choose comforting neutrals or bold shades for your bathroom walls, choosing the right paint and texture is critical to its appearance and upkeep.

Truly any color can work well in a bathroom space. For small bathrooms, light colors and small textures can make the space seem larger. Soothing, cool colors promote relaxation while vibrant colors inspire energy. Two or more colors can be dramatic, while classic white is crisp and clean. Faux painting gives any room an elegant and luxurious feel.

 

Kitchen Painting Ideas

The heart of your home deserves colors that not only stimulate your culinary creativity but also reflect your unique style. Whether you crave a cozy, farmhouse-inspired ambiance or a sleek, modern aesthetic, choosing the right paint colors for your kitchen can set the tone for countless shared meals, conversations, and memories.

Modern Style Kitchen

Modern kitchens typically feature smooth materials with a clean and minimalistic aesthetic. Good colors for modern kitchens to consider include: Sherwin Williams Crushed Ice, Modern Grays, and off-white accents.

Cottage Style Kitchen

Pastel colors come to mind when thinking of a cottage’s paint colors. Pastel colors all share the same dreamy vibe that a cottage style embodies. Consider the colors throughout the rest of your home and choose one that makes the kitchen feel unique but cozy still.

Home Office Paint Ideas

Whether you work from home or have a home office for paying bills and working on projects, the colors of your workspace are important.
