The start of a new year brings fresh design trends, including exciting paint colors for 2025. While you don’t need to overhaul your entire home, embracing a fresh coat of paint is an easy and affordable way to give your space a new look. Paint has a powerful impact on any room, making it the perfect way to bring a new vibe into your home in the coming year.
We turned to designers for the paint colors and styles they say will come out on top in the year ahead, and we’re pretty excited about these predictions. Why not go a little bolder and more vibrant at home—or try a warm neutral if you always go for color? No matter your aesthetic, you can infuse your space with fun by trying any one of the trending looks below.

Color Drenching
Going all in with one color on the walls, trim, and ceiling—otherwise known as color drenching—will continue to be big next year, according to many designers.
“The paint can be all the same sheen, or, my personal favorite way to do it, is different sheens on the three different surfaces,” explains Suzan Wemlinger, the founder of Suzan J Designs. “Take things a step further and color drench a room using lacquer—now that would be a statement room!”
Pops of Chartreuse
Say hello to vibrant green in 2025. Amy Youngblood, the founder of Amy Youngblood Interiors, is all about going bold with chartreuse. “Chartreuse is a unique combination of yellow and green that is energizing but not too bright,” she says. “I think it adds a backdrop of fun and tropicality to a room, especially when pairing it with more neutral-based furniture.”
Painted Trim
On a related note, Kerri Pilchik, the founder of Kerri Pilchik Design, agrees that painting trim in the same or a similar color as the walls is going to be an increasingly popular technique. “White trim now looks almost unfinished in a room,” she says, noting that painting the trim in a different finish than the walls—such as full gloss—is a smart move.
Kelley Gable, the founder of Gable Interiors, also believes that contrast and accent trim will reign supreme. “Gone are the days of an accent wall and in its place is accent trim,” she says.
Two-Tone Cabinetry
Spice things up a bit in your kitchen with a new cabinetry approach. “We’ll see an explosion of dual-toned painted cabinetry,” notes Melissa Oholendt, the founder of Oho Interiors. She’s referring to instances where the cabinet fronts are painted one color and their insides are a contrasting color, or one color is used on a cabinet door or drawer front and molding trim in another color complements it. “We’ve seen this done on furniture for years now but it has started to make its way into built-in pieces and I couldn’t love it more,” the designer says.
Pretty Purple
People won’t be shying away from purple next year, either, shares Sallie Lord, the founder of GreyHunt Interiors. “Purple is coming in hot,” she says. “Mixed with colors like chartreuse, greens, yellows, and more, it’s a strong debut for this coming year.”
Wemlinger foresees a greater use of aubergine, plum, purple, and mauve next year. “It’s not for everyone, but when it’s the right call for a room, it can make a big impact,” she says. “I think consumers are ready for color but don’t necessarily want ultra bold or bright colors; they still want to be able to come home to their sanctuary and relax.”
Lots of Light Green
Green, in many different forms but especially in lighter shades, will be majorly making waves next year, Lord says. “Mint greens and green teals are coming in strong.” Embrace the classic coastal-inspired look no matter where you live by weaving one of these shades into your home.
