1. Soft Sage Green
It’s like bringing the outside in, minus the pollen.
Sage green is the cool, calm, and collected best friend of spring paint colors. It’s soothing, easy on the eyes, and makes you feel like you’re chilling in a botanical garden.
This color is a focal point in just about any room. Paint your bedroom walls for a zen vibe, update your kitchen cabinets, or go bold with a full living room refresh. Add some rattan furniture, a few leafy plants, and you’ve got a space that is worthy of the ‘gram.
Sage green can vary between light and dark, subtle or bold. Find your favorite shade, sample the paint in your home, and be prepared to make your friends and family green with envy.
2. Purple Basil Go big, go bold.
This spring, the trending shade purple basil is making a bold statement in home design, blending deep, earthy plum tones with subtle hints of brown and gray for a sophisticated yet grounding effect. This rich, moody hue is perfect for creating a cozy atmosphere in bedrooms, accent walls, or even kitchen cabinets, adding a touch of drama without overwhelming the space. Pairing purple basil with warm neutrals like soft taupes or creamy whites can enhance its depth, while gold or brass fixtures bring out its luxurious undertones. Whether used as an accent or the main color, this shade brings an elegant, modern twist to any home painting project, making it a perfect choice for those looking to embrace the season’s color trends with style.

This serene, misty blue-green is like a deep breath for your home — perfect for a tranquil bedroom accent wall, a breezy kitchen backsplash or even a cozy reading nook where you can sip tea and pretend you have your life together. Pair it with warm neutrals for a spa-like retreat, or let it pop against crisp whites and natural woods for a modern, airy vibe.

Because every day deserves a little sunshine
Say hello to spring with Convivial Yellow, the sunshine-infused hue your home has been waiting for! This warm, golden shade feels like a hug from the sun—perfect for brightening up a cozy breakfast nook, adding a cheerful pop to your front door, or giving your living room that “I swear I’m a morning person” glow.
