Soothing neutrals. Nature-inspired tones. Bright & uplifting hues. If your walls could talk… what would they say they want in 2022? A recent read from Better Homes & Gardens identified how the turbulence of recent years has caused individuals to gravitate towards certain colors at home to reflect their desired state of living. With things (hopefully!) settling down in the months to come, interior design experts are already guessing what colors will drive our lifestyles in the new year.
Homes of Silicon Valley has selected a few of our favorites to share with you below. Note that what colors you choose to live with vs. what colors you choose when selling/renting may be very different! If you need any help choosing colors that reflect you but will not deter your buyer prospects in the future – just let me know!

Evergreen Fog By Sherwin Williams: “The mid-tone gray-green signifies a shift away from the cool neutrals and brilliant jewel tones that have previously dominated paint color trends. This familiar, organic color can extend a comforting welcome in entryways, establish quiet and calm in bedrooms or bathrooms, and introduce restorative energy to living rooms, kitchens, and other common areas.”

Aleutian by HGTV Home by Sherwin-Williams: “Like a well-worn pair of faded blue jeans, Aleutian HGSW3355… embodies comfort and relaxation. Because the blue-gray hue has a slightly warm undertone, it offers a balanced look and a restful tone that works equally well in common areas like kitchens or living rooms and private spaces including bedrooms and bathrooms.”

Breezeway by Behr: “The soft, silvery blue-green is reminiscent of sea glass found along sandy beaches and the crystal-clear water of a tucked-away bay. Because of its ties to nature, Breezeway establishes a feeling of tranquility, but its crisp brightness can also inspire energy and liveliness.”
For those feeling ready for a real change, check out Lilac Lane by Valspar, Guacamole by Glidden or Art & Craft by Dunn-Edwards (denotes as moody & complex!).
Paint can be one of the most impactful and affordable home improvements you can make. Cheers to a life and home full of color that defines you in 2022! ~ Mark
