The Best Interior Paint Colors of 2024: How Paint Can Transform Your Home
Paint can transform a space all on its own. It’s the lowest cost and highest impact choice you can make for your home. Maybe that’s why we can let ourselves sit on a paint decision for a year without making a move?
We all know it’s just paint… but then why do homeowners test ten colors on one wall?
Because we know how impactful it is—that’s the scary part!
It’s taken me 20 years of testing paint on walls, ceilings, doors, trim, cabinetry, and even furniture to come up with a tried-and-tested list that any homeowner can use. I’ve consolidated a Top 10 list of the best paint colors for 2024—the colors that keep bringing me back, that continue to stand the test of time, and that are worth investing in for your home.
If you’ve ever gone through the paint selection process, you know it can be agonizing. You compare small samples, paint patches on your walls, and commit to a dark color for an entire room—each decision makes an impact. While you can easily repaint a room, no one plans to do it right after finishing. At least, I’ve never met anyone who enjoys repainting a freshly painted room 🤔
What’s Inside the Paint Guide
That’s exactly why we created this paint guide—to share what’s inside. This detailed guide includes our Top 10 picks for the Best Interior Paint Colors of 2024, with a few bonus options worth noting. These colors are the tried-and-true starting point for any palette you dream of using in your home. You can use these 10 colors as-is or tweak them with the additional tips we’ve included.
We share our favorite paint brand and the specific line that’s consistently praised by professional painters and designers alike. We also cover the range of paint finishes you should choose for each surface. The cherry on top is our detailed answers to the most common questions we’ve received from homeowners about paint over the past year. We want this to be your go-to guide for paint selection, taking the guesswork out of the often agonizing process.

These Top 10 paint colors have been carefully selected to work in any room or on any paintable surface. Whether you’re repainting a single accent wall or giving an entire room a fresh coat, these colors provide versatility to suit a range of styles and functions.
