15+ Popular Wall Paint Colours For Your Indian Home (Pick These Blindly!)

•

Dark paint shades give the living room a classy, intimate and luxurious appeal. For instance,

dark purple or even fig

is a rich and classic wall colour for a semi-formal or formal living room. In the above room, along with the painted wall, the drapes and chairs are in hues of the colour fig. Tables in dark wood add depth to the room, while the white ceiling gives it breathing space.

Similarly,

dark shades of blue

have become very popular paint colours for homes lately. Indigos, navys and ink blues are modern options that easily add a royal touch to your space.

Red

is another great pick. Being a colour of energy, its darker shades are great for living rooms where you want to stimulate conversations. In this room, the red panelled accent wall pairs beautifully with the wooden flooring, rounded off with sofas in similar warm hues.

If you want to add a soft, soothing and easy-on-the-eye colour to your living room walls, by all means go for

pastels like powder blues, lavenders, lilacs, mint green

, etc. But just so that the room doesn’t end up looking like a baby’s nursery, decorate with stylish metallic accents, tables with glass tops, contemporary wooden furniture, and tufted and woven furnishings.

Yellow

is one of the best wall paint colours for a dining room. It’s a happy colour signifying togetherness, a purpose meant to be served by a dining room as well.

You could opt for this

warm mustard shade

, which suits Indian decor aesthetics, and which looks beautiful in a room with abundant natural light.

Speaking of warm hues, a

dusty shade of orange

is a good interior paint colour too. Avoid pop or bright variants that are difficult to work with, and instead pick paint shades with grey undertones.

However, the latest wall paint colour trend to have hit dining rooms these days is that of

pastel blues

. While blue used to be once considered cold for such a room, it no longer is as it can be warmed up with wooden furniture and flooring or accents in natural materials.

Colours for the entryway can either be a complementing backdrop for the accents that decorate it or can be welcoming all by themselves. Let’s see how. In the above picture, a dash of

cool grey

allows the contrasting dark shoe cabinet and the raised snake plant to shine. While in the picture below, a

gorgeous blue

looks so lovely in itself that it makes coming home every day a delight.

You can either choose a dark colour, like this

crimson

, which will give your little corner a tucked away appeal — especially if that’s how you want to feel when reading that gripping novel. Or you can go for a wall colour design where a broad strip of a

bright pop shade, like an orange or green

, gets highlighted against a neutral background. This palette makes your reading corner look inviting — and turns it into your happy place!
