When Its Time To Paint - Stick To The Neutrals

When it’s time to rethink your home’s interior paint, it can be tempting to start looking into bolder, brighter, more daring options, especially if you’ve always walked on the more traditional side. Something totally new can be fun, maybe even pushing your color comfort zone just a bit. You know, something to get the in-laws talking...

As awesome as that can be, and as enticing as the colorful photos in home design resources can look, we have a surprising color trend to tell you about. This one is from the other end of the spectrum (almost literally).

Neutral interior paint.

WHY CHOOSE NEUTRAL INTERIOR PAINT FOR YOUR LAS VEGAS HOME?

There are four key reasons that are contributing to the popularity of this more subdued color palette, and we think you’ll like them.

  • Neutral Doesn’t Just Mean White - While white is more “hot” than ever, and available in a huge variety of options, neutrals can extend into all different colors. They’re just a more subdued, softer version of themselves. Less obtrusive, and more reserved.

  • Neutrals Are Marketable - This is especially key if your home is going on the market anytime soon! Neutral interior paint adds tangible value by being fresh and attractive, but also easily allowing potential buyers to envision themselves in the space. Bolder, louder colors can be tough to see past.

  • Brighter - Lighter paint colors bounce light rather than absorb it, making your rooms feel bigger and brighter. This is Painting Strategy 101 for smaller rooms in particular, but it works well anywhere.

  • An Ideal Backdrop - Let’s get back to talking color again. If you want to introduce something brighter and bolder, how about doing that through decorations, furniture, artwork, or drapes? This is all easy to change out, according to your taste and goals, leaving your paint to be a consistent backdrop that gets along well with any other colors you introduce.

PRO TIP:

Do you like the idea of having versatile, neutral interior paint, but still are hungry for color? How about painting just one wall a more vibrant accent color? It can be an ideal visual anchoring point, drawing attention to one specific aspect of the room.
