Neutral Paint Colors
Always inviting, neutrals are favorites for both interiors and exteriors. From beige to soft tan–neutral colors suit any style of design. Neutrals create a pleasing backdrop to bold colors–allowing for visual balance in a room. When working with neutrals, look for undertones to differentiate them; beige may have an undertone of gold or pink, while white may be influenced by yellow or blue. The trick is to select a neutral with an undertone that works with your color preferences.
