2024 color trend themes

There’s no doubt that dark shades are going to be significant for 2024. Spanning deep greens and rich blues, these colors are collectively praised for their ability to create warming and cozy atmospheres in the home, and it’s clear that paint companies are championing this as a key trend. 

Decorating with neutrals is also proving to dominate home design in 2024 but with a revised twist. Rather than traditional beiges, we see paint companies elevate neutrals with a more exciting update, creating standout colors that act as backdrops in the home with a point of interest.

Establishing a more daring color trend for 2024, uplifting peach and terracotta tones also stand out this year, reflecting a theme of using home decor in an expressive way to create joyful and vibrant spaces.
