For a more subdued approach, pick a shade of green paint that's not so bold. In this Scandinavian-inspired room, the green paint color works as a neutral element of the space and doesn't distract the eye. "Just remember to always follow your gut instinct," Decorist celebrity designer Jonathan Rachman says. If you're not ready for bright colors, stick with what feels most aligned with your style.

It might be time to take a break from light and airy whites. According to Magno, people are experimenting with deeper hues, such as "navy, black, and deeper blue-greens, and gestures of bolder colors from the red family."

Mustard yellow is "a romantic, fearless pop of color when it's used on a white, neutral canvas," Caitlin Murray of Black Lacquer Design says. In a bright space like the one above, mustard yellow adds the final touch to make the space feel more playful.

Aside from breaking up a neutral color scheme and making it more visually unique, mustard yellow also warms things up.

It seems like gray is just gray, but there are so many different shades to choose from. We love this one because it functions almost like a white in a room with lots of natural light, but with a bit of a richer feel.

Pink might not be for you, but that doesn't mean you should write off peach. The shade provides the same light, warmth, and whimsy, but in a more subtle way.

This hue works best in a room with a lot of natural light.
