We’ve officially made it to 2022! Now that it’s the beginning of a new year, you probably feel inspired to give your home a quick refresh or total renovation. After all, a few coats of the perfect paint color can easily transform your house into one you’ll love. If you’re looking for ideas for an upcoming exterior painting project, we’ve got you covered. Read on to learn which exterior paint trends you’ll see everywhere this year!

Warm, Inviting Neutrals

Bright white has become increasingly popular in recent years – and there’s a very good reason for that. Not only is it a natural choice for a timeless farmhouse-style home, but it can completely transform a home inside and out. However, this year you’ll want to keep an eye out for warm off-whites and other cozy colors. You should take a look at Benjamin Moore’s Color Trends 2022 Palette, which contains 14 soothing, subdued hues. If you want an off-white that’s fresh but not overly blinding, you can try Sherwin Williams’ Creamy SW 7012. It’s a fan favorite!

Moody Hues

Although black and white palettes are popular, you’re going to start seeing darker exteriors take their place. It’s best to choose a color that’s both striking and can blend into the surrounding environment. An excellent color choice that’s bold but not too heavy is Benjamin Moore’s Soot 2129-20. When you pair it with lighter colors or textures (i.e., wood and stone), it creates a warm, inviting look!

Trendy Greens

Believe it or not, green has become one of the trendiest interior and exterior paint colors. This year, you’ll see dark, moody greens like Sherwin Williams’ Basil SW 6194 make an appearance in more and more neighborhoods. If you pair it with a crisp black and white palette, you’ll achieve a chic, edgy look that’s both unexpected and appealing for an exterior. However, when your pair Basil with more traditional beiges and warm whites, it becomes a naturalistic element in a color scheme that feels organic yet modern. For those wanting a lighter, more silvery green, Benjamin Moore’s October Mist 1495 and Sherwin-Williams’ Evergreen Fog SW 9130 are two excellent choices that pair well with multiple color palettes.
