2023 Paint Color Ideas: What’s Trending for the New Year?

Ahhh, the new year is underway and it’s time to rethink your home’s style. Plus, with the holidays in the rearview mirror, you likely have a little extra wear and tear from all those guests to take care of. This is an awesome time for interior painting!

To help inspire you and get you pointed in the right direction, we thought we’d offer a quick recap of some of 2023’s most popular interior paint colors. Don’t feel stuck with these options, but use them as a springboard for your own creativity. Your paint job should reflect you, your personality, and the colors you love, not just what’s trendy.

With that said, let’s dig in.

The colors of 2023

Cool neutrals like white and gray dominated the scene for quite a while, but 2023 is all about natural colors, ranging from subdued to bold and eye-catching.

Softer neutrals like creams, light taupes, and beiges are a popular choice, creating a calming atmosphere, or you can make a bolder statement with rich berry tones. Greens, browns, and yellows are also a great way to develop a warm and inviting vibe. Or, if you’re feeling adventurous, pink, orange, and yellow are perfect for adding a playful touch.

And remember, if you aren’t ready to commit to painting the whole space with a vibrant color you can use these options for an accent wall too.

Would you like some concrete examples?

Redend Point, Sherwin-Williams

Sherwin-Williams has predicted that bright, saturated colors will be in demand. As their answer to the call, they’re promoting Redend Point, a bright, cheerful shade of orangey red that will definitely brighten up any room.

Other top picks include Cascading Clouds, a light, airy gray with subtle purple undertones, and Rushing River, a bold teal color that really makes a statement. Other popular colors to look out for include Dusk Dune, a deep, moody gray, and True Turquoise, an eye-catching teal.

Raspberry Blush, Benjamin Moore

This is a really unique color, blending pink, peach, and coral hues. It stands alone, or pairs well with a variety of colors for a classic, yet modern, look.

Terra Rosa, Dunn-Edwards

Warm and earthy, Terra Rosa delivers a cheery vibe directly inspired by terra-cotta. If you like neutrals like brown or burgundy but want something new, this is an awesome pick.

“The people at M.B. Jessee are great – from the painters to the office staff to Matt. Talk about leadership from the top.”

— Kevin Ames, Mark Becker Homes

“In September, MBJessee finished painting two sides of our 3-story condominium building (six owners). We were impressed by the professionalism of the company and every one of its workers, Matt Jessee couldn't have been more helpful in planning the project. His painters were well-trained, easy to communicate with and eager to please. In addition to painting the stucco, they made extensive repairs on windows and frames, which will save us considerable money in the future. They finished earlier than anticipated, with as many as five men working on the job, and the scaffolding came down the next day. All of us were delighted with the results. Now my husband and I are looking forward to having MB Jessee paint our own apartment later this month. Matt and Gustavo (who will be our crew leader again) have explained how they will work to make the painting proceed smoothly while we're living here, and they have been endlessly patient with our protracted decision-making process. If you look at their website, you'll learn that MB Jessee is an exemplary company that takes good care of its workers as well as its customers, and contributes public service projects to the community. All in all, we can't recommend MB Jessee highly enough.”

“It was a great experience working with MB Jessee. The crew was careful and thorough as they painted the house, sealed stucco cracks, repaired dry-rotted wood, stained the deck, etc. Robert, Gersson, Jose, and all of the people involved in the process from the estimate to the job completion were friendly and professional.”

“Matt, Julie & Ricardo, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank the three of you for the wonderful job you did in hosting the SFBA NARI Chapter Meeting on Wednesday evening. Everything was perfect from beginning to end. Members and guests alike walked away with a truly positive experience. The "painter for a day" and the cookies in the paint cans were an absolute brilliant touch and received rave reviews. What a wonderful way to do such positive marketing. Thanks again for a truly memorable experience for our members and guests. You are valued as a NARI member.”

— Judy Tufo, SFBA NARI Executive Director

“I had my wooden kitchen cabinets painted white. Anabal and Danielle were doing the job. I have nothing but praise for them. They came on time, cleaned up every day, were respective, friendly and helpful. If the rest of Jessee's crew are as great as Anabal and Danielle, this company will go far.”

“I just wanted to send you an email to say that John did such a great job over here today. He is truly a hard worker. He has the perfect balance of friendliness, honesty, and professionalism. I trust him. He takes the time to do the job to the best of his ability and that is what sets him (and your company) apart from the competition. He didn't make me feel rushed. He really made me feel like our job was the most important thing in the world. Thanks again!”

— Nora Robinson

“I want to express my thanks for a job well done. The rooms look great and there is no problem with any marks on the all the trim, floor, carpet, etc. The paint job is lovely. I also want to express my thanks for the level of professionalism the foreman showed in running the job. He was very attentive to any changes I needed to make, was extremely careful in getting the faux paint color and effect correct. Thanks so much for a job well done.”

— Suzan D’Arcy

“Julie,Just to let you know I am very appreciative of your crew catching the plumbing/mold problem. It was very astute of them. I wanted to let you know that again your crew has done excellent work here, please pass this along to Mr. Jessee. There are some bumps in the road here, but the painting and your crew has not been one of them. Their work is the only thing going right currently, and this crew is very nice and respectful. It is much appreciated. Thank you again.”
