Paint Colors to Start 2019 Right!

Pearl River Grey

The urban-themed home interior has flogged residential spaces in massive proportions this 2018. It’s not too difficult to understand why because the urban design is a modernized and hyped-up rustic theme that every one loves! The urban theme is a combination of natural elements and steel that creates a modern look without getting rid of the homey rustic ambience.

This 2019, the taste of urban will not leave the paint palette of residential areas. In fact, one of the trendiest color for next year is inspired by this 2018 interior design. The pearl river is a shade of grey that mimics the soft tone of steel for a modern and clean look that’s pleasing to the eye. Splash the walls of your home with this grey tone and you will be in line with the 2019 trends. Photo Credits: Emma Hayes

Hazelnut Cream

The hazelnut cream paint color is another light and relaxing tone that you can apply to your walls for a fresh 2019 interior. Compared to the other hazelnut shades, hazelnut cream lends a calming ambience that you can easily combine with other colors to create a harmonious look. This shy shade of brown is a safe choice for any part of the house since it complements almost all other colors. Even standing alone, the hazelnut cream is enough for a catchy minimalist tone that’s a perfect canvas for your home. Choose any type or color of furniture and your hazelnut cream walls will just dance gracefully with those hues.

Lemonade Pink

For the past few years, a pastel-colored wall has always been a stunning feature of home interiors. This 2019 is no different and the front liner in pastel colors would be lemonade pink. This feminine shade of pink is perfect for a chic and shabby home but what makes it a leading color for 2019 is its compatibility with earth tones. Since the coming year is projected to lean towards the ‘earthy’ tones, lemonade pink is definitely a great addition to the palette.

Smoke Grey

Another grey derivative is the lighter, more minimalist shade of smoke. This relaxed earth tone is perfect for concrete walls of virtually any area of the house. Since we’re leaning towards an earthy 2019, this neutral tone that matches almost all colors is not surprisingly one at the top of the palette.

Just like hazelnut, it lends an airy and minimalist ambience, but the difference is that smoke grey is more interesting and more flexible than hazelnut. Plus, this hue fits just any home theme, be it chic, classy, urban, or Scandinavian. But before you hit the store to buy yourself a pint of smoke-colored paint, check out the last color in the palette that you should also include in the list.

Air Force Blue

This color is a more muted and matte shade of blue that will invade homes this 2019. We have not usually seen it for the past few years since it’s quite an intimidating color. Looking at this shade, you might think that once it’s on your walls, it sets a tone to that particular area. But you should not drop this color simply because of that. In fact, air force blue is a magical ingredient to home interiors that it can create an impact to a home area without the need of any decorations whatsoever.

If you feel quite intimidated by this shade of blue, we have good news. You can subdue this powerful color by incorporating earth elements such as a brick segment or some wooden details to weaken its impact. This way, you can make your air force blue walls adaptable to your chosen decorations or theme.

Paint Styles in Different Rooms

Our advice is to always have painting services Singapore pros to come over your house to do this because we’re sure you wouldn’t want to start your 2019 with a problem. Here are some ideas that you can pitch to your painting pros.

Plain or Two-Tone Living Room

You need to set a great impression in this supposedly coziest part of the house where guests often stay. Even if you’re not the type who invites people around, you’d want a relaxing living room where you can read a book, watch a TV series, or just spend quality time with your loved ones.

So our advice is to pick one or two complementary colors from those we’ve written above. Apply them plainly to your living room walls without any intricate patterns whatsoever. Let your creativity work on the decorations and furniture that you’ll place in this home area. Probably you can hang a dozen of photos arranged geometrically on the wall with frames that contrast the color of the wall or you can have some shelves constructed thereon. Mural painting is also a great idea for at least a small portion of the wall and here are the reasons why. Let your imagination work wonders as you decorate your living room walls.

Kitchen with Plain Colors but Filled with Design Elements

We always want a clean look to our cooking area. Isn’t that how it’s supposed to be – a clean interiors for an action-packed, mostly messy part of the house? So for 2019, not much has changed. You can still go with the plain, neutral, minimalist paint color for your walls. If there’s any change that the following year will introduce to home kitchen walls, that would be brick and wooden accents which both go well with a plain air force blue, smoke grey, and hazelnut cream shades.

You can also make your kitchen walls interesting by painting a corner with lemonade pink and placing linear patterns on them. You can also place air force blue and white tiles geometrically arranged on a rectangular segment of your wall right under the cupboards. Apply white paint on your kitchen cabinets and accentuate the walls under it with smoke grey rectangular tiles or bricks. Just make sure you choose harmonious shades from the 2019 palette in the different elements of your kitchen.

A Relaxing Bedroom with Subtle Tones

As for your place of refuge during the night, we highly recommend softer tones on the walls. Pick hazelnut cream or lemonade pink for the walls and accentuate with linear patterns and curves. If you want a darker, more muted shade for your bedroom walls, you can also pick air force blue for the segment right behind your bed or pearl river grey. Then splash the adjacent walls with white or a very subtle hazelnut cream tone.

Sufficient Wall Paint Color for the Kids’ Room

Now we go to one of the most playful parts of the house, which is the kids’ room. It’s advisable to settle with a maximum of two paint colors from the 2019 palette to splash the walls with. Lemonade pink is perfect for your little girls while air force blue is a dreamy color for your cute boys. Accentuate with wall decorations that are safe for kids like frameless posters, animal photos, and glow in the dark space stickers. If you want, you can even let your kids take a pick!

Not your Average Dining Area

This home area is often neglected because people don’t stay here for too long. But you have to remember that it’s where family dinners and lunch with friends take place so you have to give much attention to the dining area too. You don’t need to put any wall decorations or accents to the walls of this home area so you should be wise in picking the color for the dining room. Any combination of  colors from the 2019 palette will do. You can go as bold as painting stripes on air force blue and white or as minimalist as applying plain hazelnut cream on the walls. Totally up to you.

Now you can go ahead and pick your desired wall painting style and color to prep your home up for 2019. You might also want to check out our post about the most-loved kitchen wall painting in Singapore.
