Best Paint Colors for an Airy & Bright Home This Spring
Spring is almost here, and it’s the perfect time to bring in a sense of renewal and warmth!
If you’ve been thinking about a home makeover, choosing the right colors is key to creating a bright, welcoming atmosphere. Sherwin Williams offers several stunning shades that will help you achieve that look. Here are some beautiful options that I’ve handpicked to help your home feel open, airy, and full of life.
Sea Salt (SW 6204)
Along with being an Expert Pick, Sea Salt is my own personal obsession this season. It’s refreshing and brings a tranquil atmosphere to any space. This serene green is soft enough to be a perfect backdrop to rooms such as bedrooms, bathrooms, or even kitchens.
Pairs well with white trim, light woods, and natural textures.
Pressed Flower (SW 9054)
Pressed Flower is an up and coming color this year! It’s delicate, and soft so it absolutely screams Spring. Also considered romantic color, making it perfect for bedrooms, living rooms, or even a cozy reading nook. It provides just enough color to add personality without overwhelming the room.
Pair it with light wood furniture or crisp white accents for a peaceful, spring-inspired atmosphere.
Baked Clay (SW 6356)
This Expert Pick was featured as an in West Elm’s Fall/Winter colors but don’t let that fool you! Baked Clay makes an excellent transition color as the seasons change. Since it is not as bold as traditional reds, it creates a cozy, yet fresh vibe.
Looks great as accent walls or in entryways.
Pairs beautifully with natural textures like woven baskets or soft textiles like linen.
Aleutian (SW 6241)
Bringing back February 2022’s color of the month: Aleutian is a soft, cool blue with hints of gray. It creates a calming, expansive feel that works wonderfully in spaces that could use light and openness.
This color is ideal for bedrooms and bathrooms- rooms where you want to evoke a feeling of tranquility.
Pairs well with whites, silvers, and natural stone.
Aesthetic White (SW 7035)
If you're looking for a classic paint color, Aesthetic White is the way to go. This calming white has violet undertones which creates a clean and welcoming space. Featured in many color collections in the past and I don’t see it losing its dove-like charm in the coming years.
I suggest this color for any room you want to feel more expansive. E.I. hallways, and kitchens.
Pair it with plants, natural textures, or soft pastel accents for a perfectly balanced spring vibe
