The color scheme of a room greatly determines its overall mood and ambiance. With the right color combination, any space can take on an elegant aesthetic. The Potomac Paint & Design Centers team shares our favorite regal paint colors from Benjamin Moore to help you elevate and elegantly decorate any space in your home.
Regal Paint Color Palettes
Gray & Yellow
Elegance doesn't have to be boring. Gray and yellow are fun combinations that look exceptionally good in living rooms or open, airy kitchens. Use the lighter Benjamin Moore November Rain 2142-60 for smaller spaces or the deeper Benjamin Moore Wolf Gray 2127-40 to make spacious areas feel more intimate. Yellow and gray also look fantastic in small powder rooms, especially when you create a feature wall with printed wallpaper featuring both colors.
Blue & Brown
Shades of blue and brown provide an understated air of dignity. Remember that light shades pair with darker ones if you're unsure which two to pair together. The rich tones of Benjamin Moore Newburyport Blue HC-155 are an exquisite complement to the medium buff hue of Benjamin Moore Bleeker Beige HC-80, which has pleasant gray undertones.
Benjamin Moore Barista AF-175 is the color of your favorite ground espresso and has a soft hint of violet for added depth and visual interest. The richness of the brown makes the blue-green Benjamin Moore Tranquil Blue 2051-50 come to life. Combine blue and brown in formal dining rooms or luxurious primary bedrooms.
Blush Pink & Citrus-Lime
This combination is, by far, the most playful of the regal paint colors. The delicate Benjamin Moore Powder Blush 1338 is a calming accent to the lively Benjamin Moore Key Lime 2031-50. The refreshing pastel features hints of yellow to brighten it. You can tone down the excitement of Key Lime 2031-50 by incorporating a neutral third shade, like Benjamin Moore White Opulence OC-69. White Opulence OC-69 is a fresh white softened by the slightest drop of pink.
You can use the combination of blush pink and citrus-lime in two directions: the first is to use it in a room with neutral-colored furniture with sleek, low-profile designs to draw attention to the exciting color scheme. The other option is to incorporate the colors into an ornate, maximalist-style space.
The Truth About Regal Paint Colors
The combinations we suggested here are a few of our favorites, but any color you love can become part of an upscale palette. If you're prone to decorating frequently, try using a neutral color palette of sandy hues with creamy whites and work in color using an accent wall and bold accessories. You can even create regal-looking children's bedrooms to give your home a cohesive look. The key is to use the same neutral shade in every room, whether on the walls, trim, or ceiling.
