When it comes to giving your home a fresh new look, colour choice is everything. In Stanway, we’ve started to notice some clear favourites when it comes to modern, stylish decorating. Whether you’re refreshing a living room, kitchen, or hallway, the right paint colour can instantly update your space and boost the feel of your home.
Here’s a look at the paint colours that are trending right now in Stanway homes.
1. Soft Neutrals Are Still in Demand
Whites, off-whites, and light greys continue to dominate, especially in living rooms and hallways. These tones reflect light, making spaces feel clean, calm, and spacious. We’re especially seeing warm greys and creamy whites used as a go-to base.
These colours are a smart pick if you’re planning to sell or just want a timeless look that won’t age.
2. Sage Green for a Calm, Natural Vibe
Sage green has become one of the most requested colours locally—especially in kitchens, bedrooms, and bathrooms. It brings a natural, calming feel and pairs nicely with wooden floors, neutral carpets, and brushed brass finishes.
If you want a colour that feels fresh without being too bold, sage green hits the sweet spot.
3. Navy Blues for Feature Walls
While most people keep things light, we’ve seen more Stanway homeowners adding drama with navy or deep blue feature walls. Whether it’s a dining room or a snug, a navy accent wall adds depth and looks great against white trims or light furnishings.
Pair it with gold accessories for a bold, modern finish.
4. Earthy Tones for Cosy Rooms
Terracotta, clay, and beige with warm undertones are popping up more and more in bedrooms and home offices. These earthy colours create a warm, grounded feel that’s perfect for relaxing spaces.
They also work well in period properties or homes with lots of natural materials like wood and stone.
5. Black – But Only in the Right Places
Yes, black paint is making its way into homes—but not in big doses. We’ve been using it for interior doors, skirting boards, and even fireplace surrounds. In the right setting, black adds a modern edge without overwhelming the room.
Used carefully, it gives a premium, designer look without the designer price tag.
