Top Trends in Interior Paint Colours for the Year

Posted by: Allison Sawyer

The new year brings a fresh perspective on interior design—and colour is leading the way. In 2025, the biggest interior paint colour trends blend warmth, comfort, and individuality. Homeowners across Canada are leaning into natural tones, soft contrasts, and statement hues that make every space feel personal and inviting.

At HD Painting, we work closely with customers to bring these palettes to life using high-quality paints from Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Dulux. Here are the top paint trends defining 2025—and the shades inspiring them.

1. Earthy Neutrals and Organic Tones

Nature continues to influence design choices in 2025. Soft taupes, clay browns, and muted greys create a sense of calm and timeless sophistication. These earth-inspired neutrals make a perfect backdrop for both modern and traditional interiors.

Sherwin-Williams: Drift of Mist (SW 9166)
Benjamin Moore: Revere Pewter (HC-172)
Dulux: Perfectly Taupe (DLX1004-4)

These hues pair beautifully with natural materials like wood, stone, and rattan, bringing warmth and harmony into any space.

2. Warm Whites and Creamy Undertones

Bright whites are being replaced by warmer, more inviting tones that make spaces feel soft and welcoming. These shades reflect light beautifully while adding just enough depth to feel cozy and refined.

Sherwin-Williams: Alabaster (SW 7008)
Benjamin Moore: White Dove (OC-17)
Dulux: Natural White (DLX1004-1)

Try these tones in open-concept living areas or kitchens to achieve that light, airy feel without losing warmth.

3. Moody Blues and Deep Charcoals

For those who love drama and contrast, deep blues and charcoals are making a strong comeback. Perfect for accent walls, bedrooms, and offices, these shades create a grounded, sophisticated atmosphere while adding a touch of luxury.

Sherwin-Williams: Naval (SW 6244)
Benjamin Moore: Hale Navy (HC-154)
Dulux: Ink Well (DLX1041-6)

These bold hues pair beautifully with brass or gold accents and crisp white trim for a modern, high-impact finish.

 

4. Calming Greens and Botanical Shades

Greens continue to be a favourite for homeowners seeking a connection to nature. Whether it’s a soft sage or a deep forest green, these tones bring peace and balance to any space.

Sherwin-Williams: Clary Sage (SW 6178)
Benjamin Moore: October Mist (1495)
Dulux: Balsam Fir (DLX1146-6)

Use these shades in kitchens, bathrooms, or bedrooms for a fresh, restorative feel that complements both wood and white cabinetry.

5. Warm Terracottas and Desert Neutrals

For a touch of personality and warmth, muted terracottas and desert-inspired hues are trending in 2025. These colours bring energy and comfort, adding depth without being overpowering.

Sherwin-Williams: Redend Point (SW 9081)
Benjamin Moore: Cinnamon (2174-20)
Dulux: Burnt Terracotta (DLX1067-5)

They’re perfect for accent walls, entryways, or dining areas—spaces where you want to create a memorable impression.

6. Pops of Personality

While natural tones dominate this year’s palettes, bold accent colours are making their mark. Jewel tones like emerald, sapphire, and plum are being used on cabinetry, trim, and feature walls to add personality and depth.

Sherwin-Williams: Roycroft Bottle Green (SW 2847)
Benjamin Moore: Vintage Wine (2116-20)
Dulux: Night Watch (DLX1145-7)

When balanced with warm neutrals, these shades bring a sense of creativity and individuality to modern interiors.
