The Luxury Designer's Guide: Paint Colors

May 13

As an interior designer, I'm always asked about paint colors. It seems like everyone wants to know, "What's the paint color here?" every time I reveal a new design. And you know what? I absolutely love it! We don't hold back on paint colors around here. So, in response to overwhelming demand, I'm thrilled to present the latest edition of The Luxury Designer’s Guide, dedicated to my tried and true paint colors—my current favorites, you could say.

When selecting paint colors, it's wise to keep in mind that colors may appear differently in your own space due to variations in lighting, architecture, and surroundings. To mitigate this, be sure to get your paint samples and test them on your walls to see how they look in your specific environment before making your final decision. So, without further ado, let's dive into my current top picks!

Wrapping up, these paint colors aren't just shades on a wall—they're the essential ingredients of interior design, the vibrant strokes that breathe life into every room. Whether you're in love with Greyhound for its chameleon-like charm, swooning over the boldness of Cheating Heart, or finding comfort in the warmth of Alabaster, each color brings its own flair to the table.
