2019's Trendiest Paint Colors Are Sure to Transform Any Space

Dove gray may be the best way to soften a space, but for 2019, lilac gray should be your new go-to for a modern alternative. It's no secret that gray can be a bit drab, and the addition of a lilac hue works to make standard grays warmer, cheerier, and just a little bit more fun. The best part: it's subtle enough to still act as a neutral.

We know what you're thinking: hunter green walls haven't been cool since the '90s. However, in 2019, deep green colors ranging from muted to moody are the best way to instill a room with the healing power of nature (as well as make a totally bold statement). Hunter green works best in large, well-lit spaces, as its intensity tends to be too dramatic for smaller room.

Silver mist is far from ordinary when it comes to wall colors, but it's still subtle enough that it doesn't overpower a room. Like muted pastels, silver mist is a much more interesting neutral than standard beiges and whites. Also, rather than evoke rainy days, this soft, delicate hue actually works brilliantly to brighten a space, and it's sure to put both you and your guests at ease.

For those looking for a pop of color, deep mustard is a rich and beautiful alternative to a more gaudy gold. Whether you choose a shade that is muted or a little moodier, deep mustard works to make any space sunny and bright (even if the thought of painting any wall in your house yellow scares you to your very core).

Again, we know what you're thinking: aren't moody teenagers the only ones who paint their walls any shade of black? Believe it or not, charcoal is the trendiest dominant dark neutral in the market right now, and rather than make your space dark, it will give any room an aura of mystery and calmness. Like an overcast sky on a cool Winter day, charcoal walls have a way of making everything feel a little more cozy.
