Moody Blues

Calm and clear, this moody blue paint colour pulls its hues from the world around us. Look for a deep, dreamy blue that reminds you of the sky at dusk or the depths of the ocean. (Yep, we’re getting poetic over here.)

Bet on Brown

Yep, we’re going to say it: brown is the new black. A deep, rich brown paint colour gives a similar sophisticated feel as black paint — but with warmth. Behr’s Wild Mustang (N240-6) has a lovely gold undertone that pairs beautifully with soft yellows and creams.

Organic Textures

In 2024, one painting trend we’re going to see is the rise of organic, textured walls — either by adding plaster and painting or letting the original underneath material shine through. Here, we can still see the grain of the shiplap ceiling and the peaks and troughs of the brick.

Dark(er) Materials

Neutrals are always going to have their place in the pantheon of paint colours, but for 2024, they’re going dark. A prime example is Benjamin Moore’s Bleeker Beige (HC-80), which blends medium buff with warm grey undertones for a great grounding effect.

Think Pink

Think pink will be passé next year? Think again. In 2024, this paint colour will be everywhere. Mauve, salmon and coral have long been desirable accent colours, but now they’re taking centre stage as the stars of the show.

Nature’s Pastels

Pulling inspiration from those quiet spots found in nature, this paint-colour trend is all about tranquility. Watery blues, soft sages and warm sunshine, these soft, milky pastels help create a space that prioritizes serenity. Pictured here is Behr’s Healing Aloe (S400-3).

Green Dreams

As an on-trend paint colour, green’s star has been on the rise. But in 2024, it’s going to hit new (vibrant) heights… with an injection of yellow. Green citrine, Sherwin-Williams’ Chartreuse (SW 0073) and pear, these bold yellowy greens are fresh and fun — something we’re all craving right now!

Berry Compote

Even if you don’t have your own berry patch, with this rich-raspberry paint trend you can still enjoy the fruits of your labour. Easy to pair with wood tones, creams and browns, Behr’s Raspberry Crush (M120-7) is a sweet example of berry-red done right.

Emerald Empire

Emerald green, with its bold, saturated tones, is right on track to be the latest green to rule the decor scene. Tranquil and luxurious, this gem-inspired green is a great choice for an accent wall or creating depth in a smaller space.
