Types of Neutral Paint Colors

Neutral is anything but boring. Just like primary colors, some neutrals are cool, others are warm, but all are exceptionally versatile, spanning a full spectrum of shades and hues. Layer on additional neutral tones or set the perfect foundation for pops of vibrant color.

Cool Neutrals

What is "cool"? A laid-back vibe? An air of sophistication? The soothing sounds of a steady rain? The answer is "yes," to all of the above. These neutrals use the cool undertones of blue, violet or silver to convey a calm and cosmopolitan atmosphere.

Warm Neutrals

A warm neutral room feels a lot like a favorite sweater—comfortable and familiar. Warm neutral wall designs make for a practical palette complementing both rustic and casual décor as well as the formal furnishings of more stately rooms.
