Most Popular Paint Colours (For Every Room)

What’s the most popular paint colour for bedrooms? What’s the best living room colour? Some colours just BELONG in a specific room. Blue in the bathroom is a prime example.

If you’re building a colour palette, you might get lost with where to place each colour. Luckily, we’ve mapped out a list of the most popular paint colours for every room in your house! 

With this to guide you, you’ll never get lost searching for the perfect room colours. Let’s get into it!

Master Bedroom

Typically, the master bedroom is where you can personalize things. Instead of going with what’s trending, you can choose something you like since no one is really going to see your bedroom anyway. Here are some more popular bedroom colour ideas: 

  • Muted Green

  • Sky Blue

  • Navy Blue

  • Forest Green 

  • Teal

Kid’s Bedrooms/Nursery

It’s best to stick with softer colours when it comes to designing a nursery. Some of the most popular paint colours for nurseries are:

  • Sky Blue

  • Blush Pink

  • Lavender Purple

  • Minty Green

You can start to play with more vibrant colours and themes for older kids. Some popular bedroom colours include:

  • Hot Pink

  • Dark Blue

  • Electric Blue

  • Pale Yellow

Bathroom

The bathroom should be a peaceful retreat. It isn’t really the place for overly vibrant colours. However, you’re certainly not limited to boring old black and white. Here are some of our favourite bathroom paint colours:

  • Navy Blue

  • Sky Blue 

  • Buttery Yellow

  • Peachy Pink

  • Dark Grey 

Living Room

The living room is either the focal point of the house. Or, it’s neutral to blend in with the rest of your home colours. Here are some of the most popular living room colours:

  • Dark Red

  • Teal

  • Muted Green 

  • Creamy Beige 

Kitchen

Cream and bright white are two extremely popular paint colours for kitchens. That’s because they make the space seem larger and cleaner. But don’t discount other more vibrant colours like:

  • Retro Red

  • Sunshine Yellow

  • Navy Blue

  • Spring Green

Dining Room

The dining room is where things get dramatic. Think warm neutrals, reds, and violets. Warmer colours like orange and red are also known to stimulate your appetite and even aid digestion. Warm neutrals are also a great option if you want something a little more subtle. Here are some other popular dining room colours:

  • Crimson Red

  • Burgundy

  • Deep Violet

  • Burnt Orange

Entryways

Similar to the living room, your entryway should make a statement or stay low-key. It’s supposed to be bright, welcoming, and cozy.

Here are some of our recommendations:

  • Sunshine Yellow

  • Teal

  • Warm Taupe

  • Camel Brown

  • Spring Green

Hallways 

Hallways should be transitional, linking all of the other rooms. Again, neutrals are the most popular paint colours here because they are perfect for connecting different room colours. Here are some soft neutrals to create cohesivity in your home:

  • Off-White

  • Cream

  • Sandy Beige

  • Light Gray

Laundry Room

Your laundry room should be soft, fresh, and clean, just like the clothes coming from the dryer. Think lighter colours like off-white or gray-blue. Here are some more popular laundry room colours: 

  • Muted Green

  • Taupe

  • Slate Grey

  • Creamy Beige

Home Office

As your workspace, your home office needs mood-boosting and focus-inducing paint colours. Most shades of blues and green relax and drive focus, while yellow and oranges are energy and mood boosters.

Here are the most popular paint colours for your home office:

  • Sage Green

  • Magenta

  • Mustard Yellow

  • Lavender Purple
