 Top Interior Painting Trends For 2025

Bringing Fresh Color & Style to Your Bay Area Home

We’re big believers that your home should be a reflection of you—your style, your personality, your preferences. And the right interior paint color plays a major role.

Maybe you love the idea, but aren’t quite sure where to start?

This is an awesome time of year to get inspired. The 2025 interior paint color trends have officially rolled out, offering the perfect springboard for your own color selection. One word of advice first: don’t feel like you have to follow the trends… They should be fun and help point you in the right direction, but ultimately your home is uniquely yours. And so is your palette.

1. Warm & Earthy Neutrals

Gone are the days of cool grays dominating interiors. In 2025, warm neutrals like terracotta, taupe, and creamy beige are taking center stage. These colors bring an inviting, grounded feel to any space, making them perfect for living rooms and bedrooms. They also pair beautifully with natural materials like wood and stone, creating a cozy, organic aesthetic.

2. Moody & Sophisticated Hues

Deep, rich colors are also making a statement in 2025. Charcoal gray, navy blue, forest green, and even deep plum add drama and sophistication to interiors. These hues work especially well in home offices, dining rooms, and accent walls, providing a bold yet refined backdrop. When paired with soft lighting and metallic accents, they create an elegant, contemporary look.

3. Soft Pastels with a Modern Twist

If you love a touch of color but prefer a subtler approach, soft pastels are a fantastic choice. Sage green, muted blush, and powder blue are among the top pastel shades for 2025. These colors add a hint of vibrancy while maintaining a soothing, sophisticated ambiance. Ideal for bedrooms and bathrooms, they bring in a refreshing yet timeless charm.

4. Nature-Inspired Palettes

With an increased focus on well-being and sustainability, nature-inspired colors are trending in 2025. Deep greens, earthy browns, and sandy beiges bring a sense of tranquility and connection to the outdoors. These shades work beautifully in spaces designed for relaxation, such as bedrooms and reading nooks.

5. High-Gloss and Satin Finishes

While matte finishes have been popular in recent years, 2025 is seeing a shift toward high-gloss and satin finishes. These finishes enhance depth and light reflection, giving walls a sleek, polished appearance. High-gloss paint is especially impactful on cabinetry, trim, and doors, while satin finishes work well in high-traffic areas like kitchens and hallways.

6. Timeless White with a Contemporary Edge

White walls continue to be a classic choice, but in 2025, warmer shades of white are gaining popularity. Soft, creamy options with undertones of beige or peach add warmth and depth. This versatile backdrop also pairs beautifully with natural wood, warm metals, and bold accent pieces.

FAQs

Q. How do I choose the right paint color for my space?
Consider the room’s lighting, size, and existing décor. Sampling a few shades on your walls before making a final decision is always a good idea.

Q. What’s the best way to test paint colors before committing?
Paint samples on different walls and see how they look at different times of the day. Lighting affects color, and you want to be sure you love it around the clock.

Q. How long does an interior paint job typically take?
It depends on the size and complexity of the project, but a single room usually takes 1-3 days, including preparation and drying time.

Q. How often should I repaint my home’s interior?
Most interiors benefit from a fresh coat of paint every 5-7 years, but high-traffic areas may need touch-ups more frequently.

Customer Reviews

“MB Jessee just finished our exterior and we couldn't be happier with our experience. The foreman (Pedro) and lead painter (Ricardo) were incredible to work with: they communicated scheduling clearly, Ricardo was a joy to be around every day, the showed up early every day, were incredibly tidy and did great paint work. The final walkthrough experience was incredible. Pedro pointed out items I missed demonstrating a clear desire to complete another quality project. I highly recommend them. As others have noted they definitely aren't the cheapest but you quickly realize that you're getting what you pay for. The 3-year guarantee is also a nice touch since there are likely touch-up items that will show up after the job is done.”

“Thank you for the support you have given the Women's Cancer Resource Center over the past year!”

— Margo - Director Women's Cancer Resource Center

“The painters at MB Jesse are top notch! Cesar's team was super friendly and helpful. They were very polite and accommodating. Their expertise in everything painting related was evident in their attention to detail and efficiency painting tricky spaces. The apartment looks brand new!”

— Adam Swisher

“M.B. Jessee painted the exterior of my Spanish house over 9 years ago, and they did such an incredible job that they are still getting referrals from me today. The paint is holding up perfectly -- there is absolutely no peeling chipping or any other deterioration. I still remember that my final walk-through list consisted of items written on one side of a 3x5 index card (and I'm REAL picky about my house!) However, when Matt and I did that walk-through over HALF the items were no longer an issue, as his team had noticed them first and they had already been resolved.”

— JoAnn Newcomb

“I love the article in the paper on your company. Thank you for supporting our community by painting at the Claremont Middle School. Thanks!”

— Carla Banks

“Just wanted to let you know that the crew was great to have around the house for the past two weeks. All three of them were professional, courteous, and attentive to my thoughts/concerns and were extremely knowledgeable. They paid great attention to the detail and it shows.”

— Mark & Roberta Gross

“MB Jessee painters are stellar! As a designer I've worked with numerous companies over the years, and MB Jessee is a top-notch firm. From the first phone call to the final clean up, every person is courteous, professional, and hard working. The owner, Matt, is a charitable leader who has instilled his team with integrity and honesty providing the customer with a first class experience at a fair price with a paint job that is guaranteed to last. I highly recommend MB Jessee. Thank you Matt and your STAR crew-Daniel, Rigoberto, Vicente, Edy, Pedro, and Mario, for a job well executed! Cynthia Brian, ASID, Starstyle® Productions, llc”

“I loved working with M.B. Jessee from start to finish on a relatively small paint job that grew a bit. I felt in very good hands from the moment Matt Jessee came out to give me the estimate and talk about my job. He was very easy to talk to and he handled my changes very well. Then the actual work done by Rigoberto and Mario was impeccable. They were neat and meticulous and the paint job looks beautiful. I could not have asked for more and when I did, they accommodated me 100%. I will not hesitate to call M.B. Jessee again and to refer them to friends.”

— Nancy Kurkjian

“Awesome work by highly experienced, professional painters. They were: Conscious about the amount of time it would take. Ours had a lot of pre-work and took 3 weeks. Accommodating when we added a few last-minute changes Understanding when a heatwave hit and we remove some of the plastic sheeting over windows, which they had to put back up the next day. Accessible, especially the on-site crew (Hi Jose & Victor!) -- always answering questions and checking in. The end result is a perfect paint job that makes our 94-year-old house look brand new. I would definitely hire MBJ again”

“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.”

“Everyone I dealt with was nice, helpful, and very professional. The price was reasonable! (I didn't feel like I was getting the "San Francisco price." The attention to detail and work quality was excellent. They did what they said they would do in the exact timeframe they said they would do. Highly recommend!”

— Tim Tyson

“My entire experience with MB Jesse was very professional. The crew were very friendly and super accommodating of my ridiculous schedule and geriatric pets in the house. The finished product, which was pretty much my entire house, far exceeds my expectations. Would definitely work with them again!”
