Towards the end of every year, CK announces the colours we expect to see in abundance in the New Year, tipping interior designers on the colors to use for their home projects.

This year, our list of most popular interior paint colors for homes has something for everyone – from modernists, traditionalists to minimalists and extravagant stylists.

Here are the top interior paint colors for 2024:

1. Navy blue

Navy blue, a timeless color, has grown in popularity over the past few years. Navy SW 6244 is our color for 2024. In October 2023, we affirmed that the deep shade of blue, reminiscent of the night sky, would be one of the most interior popular colors of 2024.

2. Light pink

Light pink will be a popular interior paint color in 2024, according to top interior decorators. This refreshing and airy hue of pink is a revitalizing alternative to beige or white, and can be used in living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens.

3. Golden yellow

Globally, yellow is widely recognized as the color of happiness and optimism. Although yellow instantly livens up any room, interior designers tend to use the color sparingly to avoid creating the opposite effect.

Golden yellow works well in living rooms, bedrooms, nurseries, and workspaces.

4. Charcoal

Charcoal is a very fashionable color that can be used in almost any room. It combines well with other shades of grey adding visual interest and depth to the space. This makes it an ideal interior paint color for bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom.

5. Dark red

Dark red adds warmth and sophistication to any room. This was one of the most popular interior paint colors of 2023 and designers expect it to make waves in 2024.

Dark red can be used as an accent color or as the predominant color. The color combines perfectly with other shades of red to create fine-looking setting.

6. Olive green

Expect to see a lot more of green in 2024. Olive green to be precise will be one of the top interior paint colors this year – simulating the look of nature and creating a tranquil atmosphere. Olive green can be used on both interior and exterior walls.

7. Mango

Mango is a top interior color of 2024, making waves and for some good reasons. This color shouts fun and energy. It can be used as an accent color in dining rooms or living rooms. Mango can also be used to accessorize any room.
