Living rooms are the most common spaces in a house where we spend a lot of family time together. So, the best paint for such a room will be one which can bring more and more fun moments and have a mood-boosting effect. Read further to transform your living room into the most comfortable and trendiest space.
Light Lilac
Light lilac may be the best paint for living room if you are more inclined towards little light or neutral tones. Lavender is a colour that can exude a calm and serene vibe in any nook and gives an understated background for your décor to pop. This muted swatch goes well in textures and finishes in its contrasting shades and creates a designer inspired look of the room.
Lemon Yellow
Yellow reflects cheer, warmth and energy and it is one of the best living room color ideas if you have a very active living room. Yellow with white, grey and blue in combination gives a very trendy and stylish look to a living room and leave good scope to be experimental with décor and furnishing. Just with these two colours, you can have few beautiful patterns on the wall for an upgraded look.
Cobalt Blue
If you want to go bold this time, high gloss cobalt blue paint is a surefire way to do this. It is a brilliant colour to illuminate rich and glossy sheen when light incidents and the illumination this colour creates in a dark and deep space is beyond explanation.
Cream
Neutrals are not boring. They are warm, versatile, reliable, subtle and looks opposite to how they look in the colour palette. The cream is a shade that injects natural warmth and cheers into the space. So don’t be afraid of splashing it on your living room walls.
Violet
If you want to give your living room more depth and definition, overpowering violet can be your sure bet. It is up to you if you want to make a bold statement with this or create subtle vibes. To make it overpowering use it on all the walls and very little white and neutral tones. But if you want to have a subtle look, use white and neutrals more on the walls and a little violet on edges, brims, frames and furnishing.
Peach
For a Scandinavian look inspired living room, give your walls the pleasure of peach. Peach with white and high-impact black, in contrast, serves your purpose well.
