These shades are sure to inspire your next room makeover
By Katherine McGrath and Gabriela Ulloa
Whether you're looking for a quick fix or a dramatic overhaul, a fresh coat of paint will undoubtedly change the entire tone of a room. There are infinite possibilities, thanks to a never ending selection of Benjamin Moore paint colors of course, but our homes' hues tend to tap into the zeitgeist and follow trends accordingly. It's a good thing that an annual list of dreamy Benjamin Moore shades is here to help. Designers are getting more creative than ever, choosing entire palettes as opposed to single shades for rooms by painting both the walls and ceiling different colors, which is a look that we love but can be exhausting to achieve.
Each year Benjamin Moore releases their best-sellers and colors of the year, which are often delightfully fun and surprising. 2017's was no exception, showcasing a fabulous lineup of Benjamin Moore paint colors: Shadow 2117-30, a rich, eggplant purple that adds just the right amount of mystery. Of the shade, Benjamin Moore's creative director Ellen O'Neill said: “It ebbs and flows with its surroundings, and light brings it to life. Rich, royal amethyst can fade into the soft lilac-gray of distant mountains or morph into lustrous coal. Indulge your mysterious side. Let Shadow set the mood.”
For those who may find the shade too daring and exotic to devote an entire room to, O'Neill offered: "It’s all about the proportion. You could use Shadow over the mantel with a neutral color on the rest of the walls. Or it would be gorgeous as a trim." Shadow is a dramatic departure from the Benjamin Moore's 2016 shade, Simply White. Just as the name declares, this Benjamin Moore paint color is a no-nonsense, minimalist white that "is a warm white, and felt to us the cleanest and the most versatile. It looked fresh with a warm palette or a cool palette," she said.
Choosing the right shade for your room can be tough with the limitless options and wide variety of Benjamin Moore paint colors. Shadow and Simply White are great choices, but if royal purple or soft white aren't your thing, we've asked the experts at Benjamin Moore for their top 10 best-selling paint colors of 2017 to inspire your next room makeover.

Yellow
Yellow paint ranges from soft pastels to muted golds, giving any room a warm or optimistic feel. Subtle, lighter shades of yellow paint can complement the mood of living rooms or kitchens, while earthy yellows make a great backdrop for fabrics and furniture. If you want to add a bright yellow, consider a bold accent in a neutral room for an instant boost of energy.
Pink
Blush, coral, fuchsia - pink paint offers an amazing range. While pink has long been a favorite for girls' rooms, this shade has a sophisticated side with soft and muted blush tones perfect for a dining room or living room. For a bold look, dark purple balanced with cream finishes or wood paneling creates a classic chic look. Pair pink with whites, grays and neutrals, or contrast with dark browns or blacks to reveal the versatility of this color. nine0037
Green
Green paint offers a wide range of options - from soothing sage to bright lime. Incredibly versatile, green can be a lively accent or sophisticated backdrop from apple green to soft jade. Mint and blue-green are perfect for tranquil spa-inspired bathrooms, while the glamor of deep emerald is perfect for a formal dining room. Many green paint colors pair well with wood tones and neutrals, making green an extremely popular choice. nine0037
Blue
Blue is a very versatile color. From deep azure, cobalt and navy blues to airy pastels, they are the perfect choice for any space. Slate and blue-gray tones can be neutral paired with brighter colors or stand out on their own for a sophisticated look with cream, white and wood tones. Pale blues invite us to relax, while deep blues offer an intriguing alternative to black..
Neutral
Always eye-catching, neutral tones are favorites for both interiors and exteriors. From beige to soft brown, neutral colors suit any design style. Neutral tones create a pleasing backdrop for bold colors, providing visual balance to the room. When working with neutral colors, look for shades to differentiate them; beige can have a hint of gold or pink, while white can be influenced by yellow or blue. The trick is to choose a neutral shade that suits your color preferences. nine0037
Neutrals: incredibly versatile and surprisingly sophisticated
Orange
Liven up any room with orange. Depending on the shade, orange paint can add brightness or warmth. Create a soft, pleasing color scheme using pastel peaches and whites with a hint of orange. Opt for an earthy or spicy orange like terracotta or cinnamon for a sophisticated classic look. For effect, pair orange with navy blue. Are you shy about colors? Use a drop of orange paint as an accent. nine0037
Red
454 / 5000 Translation results Red paint is confident and charismatic or rich and sensual. Striking red is a bright choice to liven up a hallway or add playfulness to a kid's room. Red can also be understated, providing a muted quality that adds depth to the walls of an elegant living room or dining room. The red paint pairs well with a range of neutral hues, providing vibrant finishes and upholstery options. When used with a bright sheen, red adds drama and elegance. nine0037
White
The extraordinary and timeless versatility of white is unmatched. White is both simple and complex at the same time, with undertones that produce results that are either soft and muted or crisp and bright. Layer whites for an elegant living room or bedroom, or look to classic ivory and vanilla for kitchens and bathrooms. Subtle nuances of white will bring out the other colors and materials used in the room and can tie the space together. nine0037
How to choose white color?
Black
Cozy or chic, soft or bold, black is surprisingly versatile and can complement any home style, from traditional to modern. Using black paint—whether it's a single stroke or an entire room—can make a huge impact. Black with blue undertones can create an enveloping feel, while a soft black window frame creates a contrast against a creamy white wall. Paintings or photographs draw extra attention when placed against a black gallery wall. nine0037
Brown
Chocolate, sand, mocha ... brown paint offers a wide range of different shades. Whether lighter hues are used to create a warm and inviting family room, or to add dramatic depth to a dining room or hallway, brown's versatility is endless. Browns and dark grays create a perfectly neutral backdrop for a variety of fabrics, textures and other surfaces such as stone and metal, while creating a cozy atmosphere in any room of the home. nine0037
Interior Brown
Gray
From cool gray tones with blue undertones to warm paint colors that lean towards beige, gray paint lends a neutral feel. Classic pale grays and silvers bring an airy sophistication to any space.

Paired with creams, ivory and whites, gray paint creates a calm, subdued tone. nine0037
