How Social Media Influences Paint Trends
Social media significantly influences popular interior design styles, including paint colors. Whether we get inspiration from the latest episode of Design Star or our favorite designer’s IG reel of their One Room Challenge, trends are often established through a screen.
With social media, you’re not only reaching a broader audience, but you’re also establishing a collaborative community of designers. You get a behind-the-scenes look at some of the rising and seasoned stars in the business. That glimpse into the design process has a ripple effect that creates trends.
What Your Paint Color Picks Say About You
Design aesthetic is more than just trends. You’re often drawn to color palettes that reflect your personality and tastes. So, what do your favorite paint colors say about you?
Soft, Warm Shades
If you’re into soft, warm shades like Sherwin-Williams’ Redend Point, Better Homes & Garden’s Canyon Ridge, or Valspar’s Southern Road, you’re likely a welcoming and cheerful person. You like to make people feel cozy like your space embodies the feeling of a hug.
Styling tip: If this is you, try using Redend Point, Canyon Ridge, or Southern Road to accent built-ins and add mixed patterns to create a comforting vibe.
Soft, Cool Hues
Valspar’s Gentle Violet, Blue Arrow, and Rising Tide are soft, cool colors reminiscent of wide-open outdoor spaces. If you love these colors, you value your alone time, where you can relax in the calm space that is your home.
Styling tip: To balance out the coolness of these hues, try to incorporate earthy tones like orange or brown into your furniture or accessories.
Jewel Tones
If the brightness of Viva Magenta, Raspberry Blush, Spanish Moss, and Vining Ivy call to you, you like to make a statement. With these bold colors adorning your walls, you’re an outgoing and confident force making your own way in the world.
Styling tip: Use jewel tones with neutrals or similarly intense colors to create a seamless look and avoid visual noise.
Neutral Tones
Neutral fans will likely gravitate toward Behr’s Blank Canvas and Dutch Boy’s Rustic Greige. If those appeal to you, you’re practical and cool under pressure. There’s fun to be had with neutrals, too, because they give you room to play with color throughout your accessories and furnishings.
Styling tip: If you don’t want to add splashes of color, you can try using contrast to create dimension in your space. Incorporate different shades within the same color family, like a cream sofa with a deep brown leather chair.
