Living room accent wall color ideas have an impact on the room that’s out of all proportion to the simplicity of realizing them.

A new paint color on just one wall takes little time or effort to achieve, yet it can change the mood of the room, and create a fabulous focal point. And the color doesn’t need to be a bold one to pull off this feat. Subtle hues can work just as well as dramatic choices in transforming the room.

There are a whole range of living room accent wall ideas to pick from to boost the style of a space including using wallpaper or paneling, but a change of color can be all it takes as these ideas show.

Our top living room accent wall color ideas

There are lots of ways to create a living room accent wall with paint. You can keep accent wall ideas simple and paint an entire wall a single shade, or get creative with half-walls, trim, and color-blocking. This is a wonderful way to bring accent colors together, too. Try the looks we love.

1. Create a talking point with zesty lime

If you're confident with color, why not opt for living room accent wall color ideas that bring zest and vitality to it? 

'This space was really created for living, gathering with the family and celebrating life's milestones. Since green is often associated with life in literature, this vibrant hue provided the perfect foundation,' says New York based interior designer Phillip Thomas . 'It looks beautiful at all times of day, brightening up a weekend brunch and glowing from within at night.'

In addition to the color of your accent wall, it's also worth thinking about the paint finishes, as they can impact the look and feel of the room. 'I always love a high gloss lacquer finish in a living room, as it adds lightness and luxury to the space,' says Phillip.

2.

Embrace versatile teal

Decorating with teal is a great way to create all sorts of looks in a living room. Sitting between blue and green on the color spectrum, it works well combined with many other shades and can be used to evoke all sorts of looks.

'Teal is a beautiful and versatile color that can bring peace and relaxation to the home or – when combined with other colors – create a really vibrant living space,'  says  Justyna Korczynska, senior designer at Crown. 'It is bold enough to be used to create retro schemes in combination with other vibrant shades, or used as an accent color to produce a bold look.'

Darker shades of teal can also make great accent colors for zoning a living room. Try 'painting just a section of a wall to create a zone within a room,' Justyna suggests. 

'This could work very well in modern properties with an open-plan living space. It’s perfect for a home office corner, a reading nook or a dining area. And, by painting just a smaller section of the room you, can go really brave or dark with your chosen color.'

3. Choose colors to complement a wallpaper

Wallpaper is an easy way to bring pattern and personality to a living room, but it doesn’t have to be used over all four walls. Hanging it in a limited area and introducing accent paint colors to sit alongside it is a great way to create an individual look. 

Here accent colors of Little Greene 's Chocolate Colour and Light Bronze have been used in the alcoves and on the fire surround to help balance a wallpapered chimney. 

There are different approaches possible when it comes to choosing accent colors to go with living room wallpaper – you could either use it as a starting point and pick out complementary tones from it, or be playful and opt for contrasting tones.

'We are seeing people embracing bolder, more colorful designs and pairing these with both co-ordinating highlight colors on walls and woodwork, such as Brodsworth wallpaper with Marine Blue paint, as well as bolder schemes which use contrasting woodwork colors,' says Ruth Mottershead, creative director of Little Greene.

'A bright yellow can work fantastically well with deep blue or indigo tone wallpapers, transforming what might feel like a traditional wallpaper into a more contemporary design statement.'

4. Create wow with hot pink

As spaces where we entertain guests, it's important that living rooms reflect our personality, so if you love bold color, don't be afraid to embrace it. But if all round is too much for you, living room accent wall color ideas can still make an impact.

'If you’re looking for a contemporary and dynamic atmosphere, but don’t want to paint all four walls in a bold color, create an accent wall with a vibrant tone such as the hot pink Leather and pair with a warm neutral shade such as China Clay Dark or versatile grey Arquerite on your other walls to create an impactful design feature that creates wow factor without feeling overwhelming,' says Ruth Mottershead, creative director at Little Greene.

To keep pink living room ideas feeling fresh and contemporary, add in sculptural pieces of black furniture with striking silhouettes.  

5. Choose a pastel accent wall

If you're looking to decorate with bold artworks, fabrics and accessories, choose a softer shade for your living room accent wall such as a delicate pink. Offering color and personality without being overwhelming, pastel tones are a great base for layering statement pieces while keeping spaces feeling light filled and tranquil.

'Pastel tones exude feelings of relaxation whilst having a light-hearted edge,’ says says Ruth Mottershead. 'They can be used in multiple spaces because they are warm enough to make us feel cozy, safe enough to be used without worry and playful enough to not be taken too seriously.'

Pink also works well paired with multiple other shades. 'Pair with deep grays or terracotta for an elegant feel or shades of green for a natural, contrasting interior,’ she adds.  

6. Introduce an accent color on shelving

To bring just a hint of color to your living room try painting or wallpapering the back of a fitted bookshelf in a contrasting color to the joinery. Not not only will this add personality and depth, it is a great backdrop for showcasing shapely ornaments. 

'We had the built-in shelving papered with a faux grasscloth by Thibaut , which helped bring some color and depth into the room. Our clients had lots of great pieces to work with already which helped to stage all the decor on the shelves. Using some pieces you have already is a great way to stretch your budget,' says Mary Maloney, owner of interior design studio Bees Knees , designer of the project.

7. Team warming ochre and fresh white 

(Image credit: Little Greene)

Your living room accent wall color can remedy design challenges, whether you're looking for small living room ideas, or on the contrary, have an overabundance of space.

'High ceilings are always a bonus, of course, but if the room is north facing as well, it can feel like a big space to 'fill' and be a touch cold. Ochre is a great choice for combating this, it's warming and goes well with many colors – like this electric blue couch. Use it as an accent instead of all over for more of an impactful look,' says Jennifer Ebert, digital editor, Homes & Gardens. 

Consider this your official permission to have fun with your living room paint ideas.

8. Eggplant is a perfect anchoring color

Looking for living room accent wall color ideas that provide an unexpected alternative to neutrals? Try eggplant.

'Eggplant is a rich color that will ground a room visually. It will also warm up a north facing living room and by only featuring it on the lower half of the wall it won't make the space feel too dark. It's a versatile yet under-used shade that goes with blush and oh-so-pale green, as well as turmeric and black,' says Lucy Searle, global editor in chief, Homes & Gardens.

9. Use gray to add depth in an otherwise white room

Create dimension in a bright, airy space with a dark-hued accent wall.  

'As this room benefits from plenty of light, I felt I could opt for a bold gray accent wall,' says Henriette von Stockhausen, creative director at VSP Interiors . 'The color is Dark Lead Intelligent Matte Emulsion by Little Greene. Treasured paintings and antiques soften the industrial nature of the scheme to create a harmonious mix of old and new that I was determined to achieve.'

There are so many accent colors for gray that this is an easy shade to use as a living room accent wall color idea.

10. If you're a trend follower, opt for sage green

(Image credit: Ligne Roset)

Green is the it-color of the moment. If you want to try out one of the top living room trends without risk of getting in over your head, opt for sage green, painted below a chair or picture rail.

'Sage green is a calming shade that sits midway between light and dark greens. Reminiscent of the plants it's inspired by – woody stems and culinary herbs, it represents harmony and nature. It goes well with cream and look how fabulously it works with rose,' says Jennifer Ebert, digital editor, Homes & Gardens.

11. An inky blue adds a new dimension

Planning a little living room feng shui? An accent wall can help set a new ambience.

'For me, the purpose of an accent color is to lift a scheme, inject some personality, and bring some joy,' says Annie Sloan, color and paint expert at Annie Sloan . 'They can be used to tie a room together – especially if you pick a color from a well-loved artwork or fabric which you already own and replicate that shade on furniture or walls. It gives fresh perspective to a room, contrasts existing shades to bring out the best in them, and most importantly should make you smile!'

For a color that sparks joy and creates contrast go for a deep blue that's a few shades shy of navy. It'll add depth and a touch of drama to your space without veering into moody territory.  

12. Add a brilliant zing with acid lemon

If you've been looking for an opportunity to make a daring color decision, the accent wall is it.  Since you're painting a smaller area, almost anything goes, color-wise.

'Yes, this is uber bright, but if you use it sparingly it can look amazing – to add balance choose a crisp white for the rest of the walls, woodwork and ceiling and pick  wooden flooring that has warming tones and texture,' says Melanie Griffiths, editor, Period Living.

13. Go bold below and light above

(Image credit: Neptune )

If your living room ceilings are on the low side, keep the upper portion of the room a single, pale neutral color, ceiling included. This is one of our favorite bedroom accent wall color ideas, too. Warm spice shades make for wonderful living room accent wall color ideas, and are obvious choices for accent colors for beige.

'Keep darker or bolder colors on the bottom and lighter shades on top,' says George Miller, home designer at Neptune . 'In doing so, you’ll create the illusion of more ceiling height and ground your scheme. If you want to go the extra mile, a central border, painted in a third contrasting shade, will define the transition of your two color blocks and add an extra flourish to the design.'

If your home has a chair rail, paint it the darker color for a more contemporary look, instead of leaving it white.

14. Spin the accent on its head and use it high up

(Image credit: Little Greene)

To break up an expanse of wall in a high-ceilinged room, add an accent color to the top 25 per cent of the wall, or above a picture rail. A pop of color high up plays into the height of room, but the two-tone effect will also make the room feel cozier and less imposing that a single shade. 

'We tend to think accent colors should be low down, on an alcove or chimney breast, but how about above the picture rail or ceiling? You can paint wherever you like, so be brave and break the 'rules', especially if the end result is like this living room,' says Lucy Searle, global editor in chief, Homes & Gardens.

15. Select vibrant orange for a color boost

(Image credit: Annie Sloan)

For a playful, yet sophisticated take on the living room accent wall, pick one side of the color spectrum and incorporate a variety of warm or cool tones.

'I absolutely adore vivid, juicy, vitamin C-packed orange with a soft pastel pink – it’s such a rewarding contrast. Both colors are playful and beautiful, so they work fabulously in a social space such as a living room,' says Annie Sloan.

16. Go all out with an accent wall

(Image credit: Little Greene)

The most popular living room accent wall color idea is to paint an entire wall a single shade, but you can up the drama by including the trim.

'For a pure statement, paint one side of the living room in a single color – woodwork and all, from top to tail so to speak. It's dramatic yes, but doesn't it look fabulous? The other walls can be softer shades, blush pink would work well as you can see from the teapot on the side table,' says Lucy Searle, global editor in chief, Homes & Gardens.

What colors are good for a living room accent wall?

The best colors for a living room accent wall are the ones that will complement your decor scheme. 

To narrow down your options, look at the accent colors that are already in your room. Pulling a color from your existing decor will tie your whole room together, and is a failsafe way to make the right choice. If you want an exact match, take an item you already own, like a throw pillow, vase, or area rug, to the paint store and have it color-matched. Or, if color-matching isn't an option, use the in-store paint cards to find the closest shade.

Should a living room accent wall color be darker or lighter? 

Most often, an accent wall is a darker tone then the surrounding walls, because it's used as a way to liven up an otherwise monochromatic space. 

But, that doesn't mean your accent wall can't be lighter. The key is to choose colors that complement one another, and to make your choice feel intentional. Painting three walls a sage green and leaving one wall white can look like you gave up before the job was finished. But, if you paint that fourth wall a rich cream color or a pale blush, you restore the intentionality, and the whole space works.

The 16 Best Accent Wall Colors for 2022

behr.com

An accent wall provides a visual focal point in any room and is a great way to add color and personality to a home. It can make a huge difference in a small space by drawing attention to the art on display, or providing a bold backdrop for decorative accessories. An accent wall doesn’t have to be large—sometimes just painting one section of a wall can make a considerable impact on your space. Whether you’re looking for vibrant colors or neutrals, here are 16 of the best paint colors for your accent wall.

1. Burnt Sienna by Benjamin Moore 

benjaminmoore.com

Warm terracotta hues have been everywhere in recent years, from clothing to graphic design to home decor. Benjamin Moore’s Burnt Sienna is the perfect example, and will bring an earthy, grounding effect to any room in which it’s used. The hue adds warmth to a room with dark wood furniture or dark floors but can also be utilized in a more sparse, modern space to add a splash of color among otherwise neutral hues.

2. October Mist by Benjamin Moore

benjaminmoore.com

Benjamin Moore’s 2022 Color of the Year is October Mist, a sage paint color that’s at once fresh and calming. The brand describes the color as “evocative of the stem of a flower, this gently shaded sage anchors and uplifts. ” It’s a great choice for rooms that would benefit from some color, but where a bold or dark hue would be unwelcome. A green accent wall in a bedroom or nursery is a particularly good choice.

3. Incarnadine by Farrow & Ball

farrow-ball.com

Those looking to add a bold visual statement to any room should consider a deep crimson like Incarnadine by Farrow & Ball. It would make a striking addition to a dining room or a living room filled with vintage treasures. In fact, it was inspired by the work of David Hicks at Barons Court in the 1970s. It’s a particularly excellent choice as a backdrop for art.

4. Violet Petal by Benjamin Moore

benjaminmoore.com

Violet is known to be an uplifting color that inspires creativity and imagination. The warm undertones of pale violet make it ideal for spaces where you want to relax after work or school, like the bedroom or living room. Violet Petal by Benjamin Moore is a strong enough color to use for an accent wall but isn’t such a bright color that it feels childish.

5. Railings by Farrow & Ball 

farrow-ball.com

Black is a perennially popular choice for accent walls because it’s timeless and provides a major impact. Black paint on an accent wall gives off an illusion of depth because it contrasts so sharply with lighter elements in the room. It does, however, tend to absorb light rather than reflect it like lighter colors do, so it’s best used in spaces that have plenty of natural light. Railings by Farrow & Ball is described by the brand as a “soft black” that’s “more blue than black.” It’s inspired by the color of ironwork and makes for a dramatic yet classic addition to any interior space.

6. Corn Stalk by Behr

homedepot.com

Yellow is one of those colors that can bring warmth and energy to any space, but it will also help make a room appear brighter and more open. Corn Stalk by Behr is a great choice for those who don’t necessarily want to make a huge statement but rather subtly bring yellow into a room. It’s a mid-tone buttery yellow that would look great in a kitchen.

7. Art and Craft by Dunn-Edwards

dunnedwards.com

Choosing a neutral color for an accent wall may not seem like an obvious choice, but opting for a neutral in a slightly darker tone can make a major impact without introducing any bright hues. Warm browns are subtle and inviting—they don’t draw attention to themselves but instead add warmth to the overall feeling of a room. Art and Craft by Dunn-Edwards looks great with other warm-toned shades like cream and blush.

8. Frank Blue by Sherwin-Williams

sherwin-williams.com

Blue is known for being a soothing color, but a bright blue like this one by Sherwin-Williams adds plenty of energy to a space. The best part about a bright blue accent wall is that it works well with almost any decorating style, from contemporary to traditional. Frank Blue coordinates well with other cool neutrals like gray, making it a perfect choice as an accent wall in a room that already has light gray walls.

9. Evergreen Fog by Sherwin-Williams

sherwin-williams.com

Sherwin-Williams chose Evergreen Fog as their 2022 Color of the Year, so it will probably be a popular choice in the months to come. The brand describes the color as “a versatile and calming hue, a chameleon color of gorgeous green-meets-gray, with just a bit of blue.” They go on to say, “It’s a simple but sophisticated wash of beautiful, organic color for spaces that crave a subtle yet stunning statement shade.”

10. Mink Violet by Benjamin Moore

benjaminmoore.com

Looking to add some color without introducing a rainbow hue? Consider a neutral-toned purple like Mink Violet by Benjamin Moore. It’s described as a “moody violet with warm, dusted red undertones” that could act as a bolder alternative to something like mid-toned gray. It can coordinate with either warm or cool-toned colors, including blue, yellow, and cream.

11. Studio Green by Farrow & Ball

farrow-ball. com

A dark green accent wall evokes evergreen forests and English hunting lodges, bringing both a sense of nature and history to any space. It’s sophisticated, luxurious, and yet feels practically like a neutral. Studio Green by Farrow & Ball is chameleon-like, appearing nearly black in rooms with dim lighting and brighter green in well-lit spaces.

12. Sunwashed Brick by Behr

behr.com

Blush hues have been everywhere for the last few years, and it doesn’t look like the trend is abating. While pink tones have typically been considered feminine, they’re evolving to have a reputation as an on-trend neutral. Choosing the right tone, however, is paramount to avoid a space looking like a child’s nursery. Behr’s Sunwashed Brick is soft and sophisticated, and would make a punchy accent to a living room or bedroom.

13. Breathe by Graham & Brown

grahambrown.com

Choosing a pale color for an accent wall adds contrast and visual interest without becoming the focal point of the space. It’s also a perfect choice for those who aren’t ready to commit to painting a full room. Pale blue, like Breathe by Graham & Brown, is not only soothing and calming but it’s also very versatile, working in nearly any room of the house.

14. Babouche by Farrow & Ball

farrow-ball.com

When used as an accent color, bright yellow can be incredibly effective. Yellow is great for adding warmth to a room and it’s also a great complementary color for green tones. It’s bright and sunny, but it can also be too intense for some spaces. Babouche by Farrow & Ball is inspired by the yellow shoes worn by Moroccan men and makes a major statement if used in the right space.

15. Peppercorn by Sherwin Williams

sherwin-williams.com

Dark gray has long been a popular choice for accent walls but can look completely different depending on the tone and color temperature. Sherwin-Williams’ Peppercorn is a crisp, cool gray that looks beautiful in rooms with white trim and crown molding. It also works well on kitchen cabinets, adding a moody accent to any kitchen.

16. Hague Blue by Farrow & Ball

farrow-ball.com

The impact of a dark blue accent wall on a room can be dramatic because this color is often associated with power, elegance, and wealth. Farrow & Ball’s Hague Blue has been popular for years because it evokes a classic European atmosphere that never goes out of style. It was inspired by painted Dutch woodwork and is named for The Hague. A dark teal accent wall in a color like this one is the perfect choice for an accent in living and dining rooms.

It is in this color that the locals have been painting the walls of their houses for centuries. Without disturbing the harmony, the designer diluted it with dark blue — one of the walls in the living room is painted in this color. A blue sofa is matched to her tone.

Ideal for small spaces

Wall painted in a contrasting color, perfect for small spaces. This technique will allow you to beat a cramped room, especially if you use a deep saturated shade. Painting one of the walls in a small room a rich dark color (or black) will create visual depth in the interior, making the space appear larger.

Lots of styles

You have several options for this fashion trend. In addition to paint and wallpaper, there are ways to play not only with color, but also with texture. For example, using panels that mimic brickwork or wood. You can drape the wall with a cloth or lay it out with tiles or mosaics. For a children's room, an interesting option would be a wall painted with slate paint. A child can boldly paint and paint such a wall with colored crayons, without fear of incurring the wrath of their parents. nine0003

A way to divide space

Contrasting one or more walls in a room is a great way to divide up a space. For example, an open living room can be easily divided into zones (living room, dining room, study, etc.) if you use different wallpapers or paint colors for wall decor. At your request, one space will turn into two, or even more.

The main accent of the interior

When planning your interior, keep in mind that the accent wall is the very first thing everyone will see when they enter the room. This is the focal point that will stand out and distract attention from everything else. To make the interior look more harmonious and balanced, it should have two or more accents. Therefore, to “support” the accent wall, it is better to choose pieces of furniture or accessories that match in color. nine0003

The right choice of color

The wrong accent wall color can ruin a space. To avoid this, give up random shades, even if the color itself is bright and you really like it. A red wall in a pastel interior is too much! The color palette of your home should be unified and clearly planned. Therefore, choose a color for a contrasting wall based on the overall range of the interior, including furniture, finishing materials and textiles. nine0003

It is not necessary to build an interior around an accent wall. Art objects will give originality to the interior. Instead of papering or painting one wall, choose art pieces that match the style and mood of your home decor. Framed photos or paintings that you like and are in tune with the overall style of the interior are what will give your home a personality, creating a memorable image. nine0003

Accent wall in the living room, bedroom and kitchen - accent on the wall in the interior

An accent wall is a way to bring unusual bright notes into a laconic restrained space. Why is this design option more and more often found in modern interiors and design projects? The answer is simple - with the help of an accent wall, we can hide any flaws in the room, make a bright accent on a certain area, bring mood and a certain "raisin" into the interior.

Accent effect in the interior

As a rule, the accent wall is the one that first of all catches the eye or the one that people want to pay attention to. This technique is universal and suitable for a variety of rooms: rooms with large footage, small-sized and combined spaces. What effect can be achieved with an accent wall? nine0003

An accent wall in the interior allows you to make the room more harmonious - with the help of well-chosen light, color, pattern on the wall or texture, you can visually lengthen or, conversely, narrow the room.

An accent wall is very relevant in studio apartments, where the owners are trying to distinguish between several zones in a small area. Separate the recreation area from the kitchen or work area, organize small islands of comfort.

Stylish bright accent on the wall will make the interior memorable and atypical. nine0003

How to make an accent in the interior

Thinking about the design of the wall, you can give free rein to your fantasies, because there are a lot of options. So, you can create an accent on the wall:

Design rules for accent walls

Believe me, an accent wall is not just something different and stand out. Sometimes the wrong accent can negate all the efforts of designers and decorators. The accent on the wall must be chosen wisely and adhering to some rules.

Accent wall for different rooms. nine0166

As we have already said, bright interior accents, dedicated zones are acceptable in any room. Let's take a closer look at the various rooms and the features of using accent walls in them.

Living room

Perhaps this is the best room to make an accent zone. You can decorate both the wall behind the sofa and the TV area. You can decorate the entire wall as a whole, two opposite parts of it, leaving a neutral area or niche in the middle. Accents will look very good in the fireplace area or work area. If large plot walls are not your option, but you want to bring a twist to the design, you can place a modular panel of paintings on one of the walls. We offer you a small selection of examples of what an accent wall in the living room might look like. nine0003

Kitchen

An accent wall in the kitchen is a lifesaver for those who want to freshen up this space. Using a fresco or wallpaper, you can highlight the dining area, and a panel of tiles or mosaics will decorate the cooking area.

Bedroom

The bedroom is a "private" space, hidden from prying eyes. Unlike other rooms, the master bedroom is the least frequently visited by guests. And this means that you can use all your imagination and decorate the walls as you have long dreamed of. The accent wall in the bedroom can be anything. Very often, the area at the head of the bed is highlighted as an accent. When designing a bedroom, do not forget that this room is designed for rest and sleep. This means that the decor should not be too active and catchy. nine0003

Children's room

Children's room is a special space. When designing it, you need to take into account many such points as the color scheme, the material itself and its environmental friendliness, age, gender and interests of the child. Plus, the interior of the children's room should not contribute to the excessive activity of the child. In the private space of kids, seamless ECO wallpaper with naive children's scenes in soft colors is ideal for an accent wall. In the rooms of older children, you can be bolder in choosing accents. These can be plots at the request of the child himself or such “correct” designs as world maps. nine0003

An accent wall is not something specific. This is all our fantasy. Will you lay out one of the walls with photo tiles, or paste a fresco into a niche? Make a collage of dozens of family photos or travel souvenirs on the wall? Accents are what will allow you to bring a piece of yourself into the interior. With the company "ORTOGRAPH" you can choose accents for any space - from private interiors to public spaces.
