Earthy and Rustic

Warm earth tones are comforting and inviting. Cavern Clay (SW7701) is a red-orange similar to Georgia clay that is bright, bold, and cozy all in one. Also consider Dark Clove (SW9183), a deep brown, or Ripe Olive (SW6209), a green-gray hue.

Bold and Beautiful

Make a bold statement with Indigo (SW6531), a brilliant blue that is sure to grab your guests' attention. Or Cape Verde (SW6482), a vibrant gorgeous green. Coral Reef (SW6606) and Blue Nile (SW6776) are perfect compliments.

Bright and Pretty

Queen Anne Lilac (SW0021) is a pale lavendar that gifts your living room with a cheerful, friendly feel. Delightful (SW6289) is an even brighter option as a pretty pink hue with a hint of purple that dazzles the senses.

Modern Gray

If your color palette is more reserved, there are a wide range of gray hues that will add modern elegance to your space.

Charcoal Blue (SW2739) is a dark charcoal gray with a hint of blue for those who crave neutrals mixed with color.

Shiitake (SW9173) is a lighter gray with a touch of beige that will make your space feel open and inviting.

Rock Bottom (SW7062) is a bold charcoal gray with a green tint that makes quite a statement.

Classic White

If you prefer the classic and clean appearance of white walls, there is still an abundance of options available.

Elation (SW6827) is a brilliant white that suggests blue undertones.

Other shades of white include Pure White (SW7005) and Extra White (SW7006).

These are great choices to standalone or to use as a backdrop with pops of color.

New Age Beige

Macadamia (SW6142) and Moth Wing (SW9174) are anything but bland beige paint colors. Warm, neutral tones in the living room are perfect for those who shy away from attracting attention. Instead, neutrals offer a simple, relaxing, and calming ambience.

However, if you find beige to be dull or boring, you can jazz it up with accents of reds, yellows, purples, blues, or greens. Beige complements any decor or color scheme.

Matte Black

You might have heard that black paint makes a space appear small and dark.

Using black combined with other colors can actually add depth and dimension.

A matte black accent wall can make your space appear larger when executed correctly and it pairs with a wide range of colors.
