Versatile and easy to combine with other hues, neutral paint colors add sophistication to any space. Neutrals range from cream whites to soft pastels to classic tones. Discover the neutral that works for you. Decorating with neutral paint colors is a trend. Although neutrals seem to be a simple, straightforward hue; once you compare them, you’ll see they’re different.
All neutrals have a nuance or undertone. This means they have a hint of either blue, pink, yellow, green, tan, violet, gray, etc. It’s not always easy to see the undertone by comparing paint chips side by side, or viewing them on a computer screen. The best way to see an undertone is to place chips on a piece of white paper, use natural daylight conditions and see which color stands out.
Warm neutrals promote a cozy and safe aesthetic. Use them when you want a room to feel comfortable and intimate. Cool tones will have blue or gray undertones and help a space recede and feel expansive.
Double check your neutrals next to flooring, cabinetry, counter tops, tile, and furniture pieces before painting, to make sure they harmonize properly with your decor.
