Paint Color: Follow a Trend or Stay Classic?

7/17/2019

When it comes to how paint color follows a trend, trying to stay up to date is complicated, particularly when it comes to paint color. The reason for this is that paint color is one of the ficklest facets of residential and commercial painting. One month, a specific color might be in, and the next, it could be entirely out of style.

Although there are a few paint colors that have withstood the test of time and will continue to be around, there isn't a lot of rhyme or reason behind why specific colors go out of style and why some stay pertinent for years. Below is some helpful information on what makes a paint color a trend instead of one that's around for a long time.

Test of Time
What makes a trend? Trends usually burn hot, really fast. They are highly popular for just a little while. They don't last long like more traditional paint colors.

Buying into a trend can be exciting, mainly if you know the paint color is a trend beforehand. You have to be cool with knowing that your paint color will be in style for only a few years. One thing you might want to ask yourself before buying a trendy paint color is if you're cool with buying a new paint color once it goes out of style.

See What's Trending
You think a paint color could be trending, but you're unsure. Luckily, there are plenty of resources to aid in identifying trends in home painting. Visiting a furniture or home decor store will give you a solid idea of what paint colors are in style at the time. A more accurate and convenient resource for discovering paint trends would be house painting blogs.

Play it Safe with Trends
Sometimes it's safe to be a tad risky with a trending paint color choice such as for small interior detailing. You might want to think twice before beginning a big exterior home painting project with a color that may only be relevant for a couple of years. Be sure you're committed to your paint color decision and contact a local Rochester painter for ideas and help.
