Giving a room a fresh coat of paint is the perfect way to give your home a burst of new energy. The color you choose can reflect your personality, your tastes, and your hopes for the kind of feel you’re going for. If you choose the right color, painting a room a new color is just as exciting as a kitchen remodel or getting new furniture. But it’s more affordable and typically goes a bit quicker to get you that “new room” feel as soon as possible. Paint embodies a moment in your life and in the culture. It’s a fun and exciting way to switch things up without a huge commitment —you can always put on a fresh coat. Plus, it also protects the surface of your walls, improves the air quality, and increases the real estate value of your home.
So what color is speaking to you for 2023? Benjamin Moore has picked their top paint colors for the year and highlighted trends for using them. They also awarded one color as their 2023 Color of the Year, Raspberry Blush. With so many Benjamin Moore color options to choose from, this annual list is a great place to start your research.
But going on about the beauty of painting your home doesn’t do a lot to help you decide on what color to paint your home this year. You’re going to need to see these trending colors to take it all in.

A soft pink with neutral dusty hues emulates a vintage photograph. The subtle blush tone has enough color to brighten up a space, but can also be used to paint an entire room without closing in the walls. It works well with the other bold colors in this 2023 trending pallet, appearing almost neutral alongside such striking shades.
