COMMERCIAL PAINTING TRENDS
Keeping your property on the cutting edge of design is crucial in attracting new owners and maintaining current ones. Sherwin-Williams senior interior design expert, Anne Diedrich, underscores the significance of a well-curated color scheme in distinguishing your property within the competitive real estate market.
Color communicates directly to our emotions and cognition. The hues you select can create a welcoming environment or, conversely, an unwelcoming one. With the complex task of satisfying numerous tastes and the significant financial investment involved in painting a multi-family property, your color decisions are not to be taken lightly.
In light of the 2023 color trends, we present valuable advice for choosing the most appealing paint colors for both your property’s interior and exterior.
Exterior Paint Colors
As Diedrich asserts, “A first impression is lasting. In this digital era, where homes are often first seen on screens of various sizes, exterior colors must command attention both online and in-person.”
Selecting your property’s exterior color involves three primary considerations: the building’s architectural style, the local neighborhood and region, and your potential tenants or buyers.
According to the 2023 Sherwin-Williams color trends, appealing exterior color combinations include:
• Evergreen Fog (SW 9130) and Silvermist (SW 7621) – A fusion of soothing, natural tones that create an appealing, fresh look.
• Mineral Gray (SW 2740) and Redend Point (SW 9081) – A balance of earthy gray and muted red for a sophisticated, yet welcoming feel.
• Urbane Bronze (SW 7048) and Homestead Brown (SW 7515) – A pair of deep, warm tones that exude a feeling of stability and comfort.
Interior Paint Colors
Sherwin-Williams’ multi-family market color specialist, Ashley Banbury, challenges the assumption that multi-family unit walls must be white. Considering the preferences of your residents is vital. Typically, older individuals gravitate towards warmer tones, while younger people often favor cooler shades.
In this day and age, particularly among Millennials, communal areas are becoming social hubs. They desire these spaces to feel homely and inviting. If you’re contemplating a departure from neutral tones, the 2023 Sherwin-Williams color trends offer:
• Chatura Gray (SW 9169) and Kestrel White (SW 7516) – A combination of versatile neutrals that provide a clean and modern feel.
• Pure White (SW 7005) and Toile Red (SW 0006) – A crisp white paired with a bold red, perfect for accent walls and design elements.
