POPULAR PAINT COLORS

Colors Your Neighbors Love


We have completed our yearly color survey of the most popular paint colors for interiors, including cabinets and trim, as well as exteriors as reported by your local Diamond Vogel Paint store. This survey gives up-to-date insights to the most popular colors being selected by our customers and is a great guide for your next painting project.

Neutrals, including gray and very soft-toned blues, continue to be popular choices for many. This use of muted color for both interiors and exteriors is driven by our desire for modern, restful spaces that are sanctuaries from daily life.  Neutrals help to clear our mind and recharge for the next day.
