Design & Staging
Written By Carly McGill

Nothing can bring your space together quite like the right coat of paint. The paint colour of a room and colour palette of your home can help create a warm and welcoming environment. The right colour can help tie together the other elements of your home, from the flooring and cabinets, to countertops, furniture and even the fixtures. But the question remains, which paint colour is best for your home?

While choosing the right paint colour really does depend on your personal preferences and unique elements of your home, these options can help you get started on the right foot!

Neutral

Neutral paint colours are a great choice for many homeowners. In fact, many opt for a neutral palette to provide their home or room with a blank canvas that is easier to work with long-term.

If you’re looking for a neutral paint colour, here are some of our favourite options:

If you are planning to paint a wall that has a deep or dark colour, you may need to use a primer and be prepared to apply several coats of paint. This will help to ensure that the previous colour is completely covered and that your final result is exactly what you are looking for!

Colourful

Let your personality and true character shine with a colourful paint colour! What really draws us to using a colourful option is the versatility and endless possibilities. Some may choose to add an accent wall, paint the cupboards in their kitchen or simply brighten a space that was otherwise dull.
