How to Choose the Right Paint Color for Your Home

Whether you have just purchased or built a home, or have owned a property for some time but need to refresh the interior, choosing a fresh coat of paint is a great way to customize your space and bring some newfound life into each room. While many people think of the furniture that goes into each room of your property as one of the main components, the color you choose for the walls should be one of the first decisions made. While it may not seem like a drastic change, paint colors can fully transform how a room in your property feels, can affect how spacious the area looks, and help to complement other aspects you bring into your home.

However, if you are not fully aware of how different colors interact with fabrics, materials, and other colors, choosing the right canvas color for your walls may be more difficult than you expected. At CDR Contracting Inc, our professional painting contractor can help you to take a look at your space and determine the mood you are trying to set in each specific room, then provide guidance on how to fully make the space coincide with the furniture, decor, and neighboring rooms and walls. This will allow any open-concept spaces or neighboring rooms to flow nicely, eliminating the feeling of chopped-up spaces. By providing painting services throughout Buffalo, Amherst, Cheektowaga, Hamburg, Lancaster, & West Seneca, NY for the past several years, our company is also well-versed in different trends that are occurring in interior design, as well as colors that have remained popular and hold up for years to come.

Some popular residential and commercial painting colors that have been implemented are as follows:

• Blues: With several different shades, blues are often a safe bet to incorporate into bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchens, as you can choose from a large spectrum. Whether you are looking to incorporate a light blue grey for a bright and open kitchen or have a living space that could benefit from a full-bodied navy, choosing a blue color can bring an element of uniqueness without using a wildly unpopular color.
  
  
• Browns: Incorporating browns into your home is a great way to tie into other materials and furniture, as our painting contractor has expressed that shades of brown match a number of materials and fabrics beautifully. Certain brown colors can create a truly cozy feeling in lounge spaces, dens, and bedrooms. These earthy shades also do not go out of style or trend as frequently as some other choices, meaning you may be able to keep the paint color around for years to come, without feeling the need to change.
  
  
• Neutrals: Neutral paint colors like shades of white and grey may seem daunting to include in your home, as many people think they are hard to keep clean and fresh looking. However, the formulas used in quality paint brands have truly stepped up the game in creating paint that can withstand certain messes. Choosing neutral paint colors is a great way to be able to include more daring decor and furniture options, without making a space feel too busy or chaotic. Our painting contractor always suggests airing on the side of caution with a neutral paint color for first-time property owners, or those who do not feel inclined to choose a daring color palette.
