The Best Dining Room Paint Colors
What Color Should I Paint My Dining Room?
A dining room is so much more than a place to eat. It’s a room in which conversation and laughter, help foster new connections and togetherness. The palette below highlights the hues, tints, and shades that promote attention, conversation, openness and optimism - all helpful in setting the ideal tone for any gathering.
The Gracious Dining Room
Subtle grays like Moth Gray and Dusky Dawn are quieting and create a sophisticated backdrop, elevating mealtime conversation. They also showcase other colors well, so add your favorite hue into the décor to spark interest and dialogue. Chili Pepper provides just the right “pop” of contrasting color.
Earthy Dining Room
Try the combination of Lucky Penny, Dusty Trail, and Gypsum to promote the right mood. Hearty and rustic burnt oranges can change the energy of a space to feel warm, earthy, and nurturing. The addition of clean white promotes openness and lightness of mind.
The Sophisticated Dining Room
Deep shades of purple paint help set the tone, a color so rarely found in nature that it has become synonymous with opulence, uniqueness, and mystery. Plum Shade provides a distinctive backdrop for Off-White accents and neutral hues, like Moth Gray, that keep the harmony classic and timeless.
The Friendly Dining Room
Look to nature for inving color combinations for your home. Naturally occurring color harmonies, like Cress Green, Creamy White, and Autumn Glow, evoke feelings of friendship and sharing - perfect for the dining room.
The Stately Dining Room
The rich, blue-gray of Dover Gray, paired with the stately soft blue of Magical and the crisp white of Moonlit Snow, make a fashion-forward statement to your guests.
