Trendy or Timeless?

Do you select paint color based on the latest trends or do you select color based on what you love?  Do you play it safe, or are you bold and daring?

If I were helping you select color for your interior painting, I would start by looking at your furnishings and then move to what you love.  Most people wear their favorite color, or the color that people compliment them in the most.  We can do the same when it comes to selecting the color for our homes, but selecting a neutral palette for the walls is generally the safest way to go.  You can always put that punch of color in your soft furnishings to jazz up your home.

As far as selecting color for your walls based on the latest trends, unless you’re ambitious and not afraid of changing to a new color every 2-3 years, and have the budget and time to change your paint color that often, I would guide you away from that choice.  The latest trends, according to the Sherwin-Williams Colormix 2012 event, are colors drawn from nature; earth tones, reds, blues and greens.  That makes your choice easier, as those colors are pretty timeless.  So this year, you can call yourself trendy and timeless when selecting color for your interior walls because this year it’s all about nature.

Who knows what next year will bring?  I’ll get back to you on that and then we can start this process all over again and have fun with color.

We are long time happy customers with many positive experiences with Brooks Painting. We have appreciated the assistance (and patience) with selecting paint colors, the professionalism of the staff and the high quality of workmanship. We recently had some interior painting done and the crew was on time, neat, careful inside the house and very easy to work with. They also cheerfully handled some unexpected drywall repair. I highly recommend Brooks Painting.

We would recommend them highly. [They] painted and did a good job. Kept everything clean and cleaned up after, very polite.

Brooks Panting Inc. just finished painting the exterior of our house. The crew did a terrific job. The house is a mid century modern with redwood paneling and an unusual amount of trim work. The Brooks crew was efficient, the quality of the painting was exceptional and the work was completed on time! Because of the age of the house several panels needed to be replaced. Brooks had the expertise to closely match the new paneling with the old paneling. I would not hesitate to recommend this company. They are professionals!

What a difference!! We hired Brooks Painting to do both an interior refresh painting and a completely new exterior color. Everything was handled professionally and as promised. The team, from estimator to office to painters on site, was responsive, friendly and skilled. Brooks Painting is the most reliable contractor we have ever hired. Thank you Jeremy, Dan, Israel, and Kristen.

Brooks Painting painted our home in Sacramento in March of 2022. Tim did a great job power washing our home. Corey, Flint, and Kristen were very helpful in the bid and. planning. process. The painting crew was excellent. Arrived on time each day and the project was finished in 5 days as promised. All worked very hard.
