The weather outside is getting warmer and more beautiful by the day, which means Summer is officially in full swing. While you probably have tasty recipes and some good company on your mind, it may also be worth carving out time to give your home an easy summer makeover.
And when it comes to makeovers, the first place to start is with the color scheme and décor. Breezy fabrics, muted color palettes, natural fibers, and coastal influences will make it feel like you're bringing the summer sunshine indoors.
Although it might feel like the style is purely seasonal, there are several design color trends you can incorporate into your year-round décor. To get you inspired, we’ve put together a list of the best color trends that'll help you welcome the season and preserve that summery vibe in your home all year long.
Mint Green
The colors of Summer are supposed to feel fresh, lively, and even usher in a hint of relaxation when used right. And one color that you definitely do not see all that often in many homes that can really brighten up your space is mint green. Mint green may be a rarity in living spaces, but it is bound to make a big splash in the months ahead.
Also, one of the best aspects of mint green is that it doesn’t go too far from white when it comes to creating a neutral backdrop. So, even as summer fades away and fall takes over, mint green will continue to appear in everything around you and can really help your décor stand out.
Yellow and Blue
We know that yellow and blue are colors that are pretty commonly found in most homes for their blissful ambiance of water and sunshine, but why not take things a step further to bring out that summer feel? You can still keep the backdrop largely neutral, while your décor brings in the various shades of blue and yellow that will complement each other very nicely.
A balance between both the colors can be achieved by repeating the colors throughout the room even as the rest of the interior remains unassuming. We recommend finding a base of yellow to shape the backdrop, then choose your blue to accompany your décor to really bring more brightness to the space. This style will be extremely welcoming for you and your guests this summer, and throughout the year.
Gray to Black
While we tend to associate summer colors with brighter palettes such as blue, yellow, and green, homes with a darker theme that use colors like gray or black can also be a fantastic color style for your home décor. Combinations of black and charcoal gray will give your home a dashing look, and even better, it’s a hue that can easily be repeated for your décor throughout each room.
We suggest choosing décor in lighter shades with metallic accents to really make the room pop and leave a big visual impression. Plus, we all know nothing feels more sophisticated than a curated living space decorated in black.
Summer has officially started, which means more time for fun in the sun with family and friends and countless memories to be made. And what better memory to make to bring in Summer, than giving your home a new color makeover that you can enjoy for years to come?
