Paint Color Trends To Try in 2023

January 8, 2023 | Design Tips, Market News, Paint Color Trends To Try in 2023

One of the bigger trends in 2023 is the use of color. Homes in Chesterfield VA are likely to take on more than just accent colors this year, with a variety of earthy colors filling walls throughout homes. If you’re in the stage of picking colors at our design center, consider trying some of this year’s color trends.

While plants have been gaining in popularity as part of a home’s decor in recent years, the color green has been showing up, as well. In previous years, bright and jewel-like shades have been the go-to, but this year, the trend is for warm greens and moss-inspired shades. These are elegant, welcoming greens that look rich and serve as a great backdrop to the wood and natural materials that are also on trend in home decor.

If you’re still not sold on green, but you like the idea of a bolder paint color, navy blue is seeing a resurgence. It’s perfect for a range of wood tones in furniture, as well as brighter pops of color in everything from sofas and chairs to bedding. Navy blue works well in a bedroom, where darker colors add to the cozy feel of a bedroom, but it can just as easily work in a living room with plenty of windows and some colorful accent pieces, such as a side chair in a shade of mustard yellow.

Speaking of mustard yellow, that’s another color you’re likely to see on walls. Think expensive mustard, not the ballpark hotdog mustard. Look for warm shades, which can still be light and refreshing. Once again, this is a shade that will go well with a variety of wood types and the natural textiles that are popular.

As you’ve probably noticed, warm, earthy colors are definitely on trend for 2023. Even red is making an appearance, this time as a soft, aged red, like weathered brick or clay. Again, the key is to think warm, earthy, comforting and understated. With these kinds of colors for your walls, it’s no surprise that your neutral colors should echo the warm, earthy feeling. Rather than crisp whites, consider warmer, creamy shades of white and other warm, light neutrals.

People are starting to play with more color in their homes in Chesterfield VA, but those colors are still warm and inviting so your home feels comforting. Don’t be afraid to explore some of the paint color trends for 2023. You may find a stylish new way to let your personality shine through your brand new home.
