The Most Popular Paint Colors for 2027

“Bold,” “modern,” and creativity” immediately come to mind when designer Autumn Pochiro thinks about trending paint colors for 2027. Fuchsia, which, she says, complements hues like turquoise and blue-green, is the perfect example.

“I choose colors based on the mood of each room. For example, my own closet is painted in fuchsia, and its bright color gives me energy every day. Although the space is small, it feels creative and whimsical,” says Pochiro.

Sherwin-Williams' White Truffle is a go-to for designer Marie Cloud, who says the shade adds warmth to a room and works well when paired with deep hues.

“There is a rosy taupe sitting underneath it, so it stays warm at every hour of the day instead of going flat and gray at four in the afternoon the way most greiges do,” says Cloud, founder of Indigo Pruitt Design Studio.

Expect to see more medium-toned blues like the high-gloss pick designer Nancy Davilman of ND Interiors chose for this entryway.

“Both the color and the gloss finish help to echo the feeling of the sun hitting the water,” says Davilman of this home, which is located near the water. “The topper was that we applied gold leaf to the ceiling and crowned it with a light that looks like the sun.”

Whether you want to introduce contrast in a small room or try the color-drenching trend, designer Dora Dmitriev says this deep brick red is a no-fail choice.

“Complex and ever-changing, this rich color takes on new undertones depending on the light it meets,” Dmitriev says.

Dark yet warm, Benjamin Moore’s Vintage Vogue is a paint color to watch, according to designer Kelsey Matyas of Kelsey Deirdre Designs.

It’s moody without feeling overly bold, making it the perfect way to bring color into an otherwise neutral home while still keeping the palette grounded and timeless,” Deirdre says of the smoky green. “I especially love it in spaces where you want to create a sense of atmosphere, like a den, bar room, powder room, or cozy library.”

“Purple is gaining more popularity, and I expect to see it continue to be a sleeper choice for a killer moment,” says Sydney Katz of SDK Architecture.

Katz adds that chameleon colors will be trending. “Rich tones that change throughout the day and season based on natural lighting conditions will be popular,” she says.

Peach shades will grow in popularity in 2027, according to designer Molly Torres Portnof. One favorite? “Benjamin Moore’s Peach Nectar has a pale, sweet peach hue that reflects a high amount of light, making spaces feel bright and airy,” says Torres Portnof, founder of DATE Interiors.

Sherwin-Williams just announced Celery, a subtle yellow-green, as its 2027 Color of the Year.

“We’re all craving a little color in our lives, and Celery just feels good—fresh, happy, and incredibly versatile,” says designer Julee Ireland. “I love it paired with everything from dark walnut and black to warm woods and creamy whites; it gives you color without feeling like you’re chasing a trend, which is what makes it so easy to live with.”

If there’s one color that can add “warmth and depth” to a space, it’s citrine, says designer Jeanne Hayes of Camden Grace Interiors, who’s partial to Benjamin Moore’s Citrine.

“We love using it in a way that feels unexpected, like we did on these laundry room built-ins where it adds personality and creates a beautiful backdrop without overwhelming the room,” says Hayes. “It’s exactly the kind of nuanced, livable color we’re excited to see more of in 2027.”
