When it comes to renovating your home, the colours you choose can make a powerful impact. The right shade can brighten your space and keep your property up to date with the latest design trends.

Every year brings a new suite of popular palettes to choose from, which means it’s now time to welcome a fresh selection of favourites. A good paint colour can modernise your home’s aesthetic immediately and even boost your property’s perceived value on the real estate market.

Top Trending Colours This Year

The experts predict that 2024 is all about making a statement.

This year, tone-on-tone layering is set to boom, giving homeowners the opportunity to mix and match several complimentary colours as part of a single project.

Beyond the world of textures, renovators are going bold! We’re seeing a resurgence of dark emerald and forest greens that create a dramatic atmosphere and contrast white furniture and fixtures.

Jewel tones are in this year! Many property owners are turning to rich purples and marigolds to create a sense of luxury and opulence.

Looking for something a little more subtle? Neutrals are still on trend, especially the blending of warm creams, greys, and golds with cool-toned detailing and accenting elements.

Why Colour Choices Matter

The colours you choose for your home can have a fundamental role in shaping the atmosphere your space delivers.

Some colours are naturally cool, making small spaces look bigger and offering a fresh and airy environment. Other colours are dark and moody, creating a sense of warmth and cosiness sure to offer comfort throughout the brisk winter months.

By thinking carefully about which paint colours are the best match for your property, you can create a style that suits your needs, your personality, and your home itself. This can help you (and your guests) feel more comfortable in the space, as well as highlighting your property’s key features to would-be buyers.
