The Most Popular Paint Colors of 2025: Fresh Ideas for Your New Home

When it comes to personalizing your space, few decisions have as much impact as your paint colors. Whether you’re building a new home or looking to refresh a room, staying in tune with current color trends can help your home feel modern, inviting, and uniquely yours.

At Kartchner Homes, we pay close attention to design trends so we can help you create a home that not only lasts, but looks good doing it. Here’s a look at the most popular interior paint colors of 2025 and why homeowners are loving them.

1. Warm Neutrals Are In

Move over cool grays! 2025 is all about warm, cozy neutrals. Think creamy whites, soft taupes, and sandy beiges. These versatile hues create a welcoming feel and pair beautifully with natural wood tones, brass fixtures, and other timeless elements you’ll find in Kartchner’s included features.

Top picks:

• Sherwin-Williams Natural Choice
  
• Benjamin Moore Natural Cream
  
• Behr Blank Canvas
  

2. Earthy Greens for a Calm, Grounded Vibe

Green continues to dominate paint trend lists, and for good reason. Soft, muted greens bring a touch of the outdoors inside and work beautifully in living rooms, bathrooms, and even kitchen cabinets.

Top picks:

• Sherwin-Williams Rosemary
  
• Benjamin Moore October Mist
  
• Behr Back to Nature
  

3. Dusty Blues That Never Go Out of Style

Blues have always been a staple in home design, but this year’s trend is leaning toward softer, muted blues with a touch of gray. These shades are perfect for bedrooms, bathrooms, or accent walls where you want a hint of color without overwhelming the space.

Top picks:

• Benjamin Moore Smoke
  
• Sherwin-Williams Slate Tile
  
• Behr Light French Gray
  

4. Bold Accents in Rich Charcoal or Black

While neutral walls remain popular, more homeowners are adding depth with bold accents. A dramatic charcoal or soft black makes a statement whether on an island, an interior door, or a cozy office wall.

Top picks:

• Sherwin-Williams Iron Ore
  
• Benjamin Moore Wrought Iron
  
• Behr Cracked Pepper (Color of the Year 2024)
