When redecorating or renovating a room, selecting a new paint color is often the biggest challenge. If you need some inspiration, you should pay attention to the latest color trends. The following options are the most popular interior paint colors for 2018.
Seafoam Green
For a soothing look, consider using seafoam green. This color has a lightness to it that can help brighten smaller rooms and dark spaces. It is a great choice for any room in the house where you want to maintain a calm, relaxing atmosphere.
The seafoam green works well with blue and black color combinations, along with muted oranges, browns, and mustard yellow.
Muted Blue-Green
Using a muted blue-green with a matte finish is becoming a popular option for bedrooms. The muted color can easily work with a variety of styles, including Southern chic or art deco. Along with bedrooms, you may also enjoy this color in a sunroom or covered back patio.
This breezy cool color also works with a variety of secondary and accent color combinations. You can pair the muted blue-green with earth-tones, such as tans and grays. You can also use it as a backdrop for brighter colors, such as bright orange bedding or throw pillows.
Caliente Red
Caliente is a strong, vibrant shade of red. However, it is not a striking bright red that easily overpowers the room. Caliente has the perfect balance of dark and light, which makes it a versatile option that will work in any room that needs a spark of energy.
Caliente red is commonly used in dining areas and kitchens. If you are worried about the red color creating too much of an impact, you may consider using it as an accent color, and pair it with a light cream, white, or earth tone.
Ice Blue
Ice blue replaces lilac as a favorite option for kitchens and bathrooms. This refreshing color looks great in rooms that feature minimalist décor. The only drawback is that it does not pair well with a wide variety of colors. Ice blue works best with light, bright colors, including pastels and ice-cool tones.
Guacamole
Guacamole is a muted green with a hint of brown. The closest comparison is olive, which can be used in your living area, hallway, bedroom, or your study.
Guacamole works best with colors that have a similar shade. For example, a muted orange or yellow offers a good contrast to the green. Earth tones are also suitable choices. Guacamole is also a fantastic choice to pair with ice blue.
Sealskin
Sealskin is an interesting color that gives hints of brown, gray, and dark blue, depending on the lighting and furnishings. While this is a dark color, it can help keep a dark interior from feeling too chilly.
Sealskin works best in smaller spaces, where you can use lighter colors to help balance the darker tones.
The top interior paint color trends for 2018 include a lot of blue and muted colors. These fresh options may be just the colors that you were looking for. They are all easy to complement with various earth tones and creams or to contrast with bright furnishings and décor.
