Let’s Talk Neutrals!
A far cry from being bland or boring, neutrals are the quiet champions of the design scene, providing a serene backdrop for bold accents and bestowing a minimalist, elegant aesthetic all on their own.
We’ve picked the brain of dozens of interior designers who overthink paint colors more than chefs obsess over plating.
Here are some of their favorites:
Manchester Tan by Benjamin Moore -
A fresh, sophisticated beige that conjures stately sandstone façades. “A go-to warm neutral that is a wonderful chameleon color. It can go modern or traditional and pairs easily with textiles for window treatments. I have had it in my living room for 11 years, and it still feels fresh.”
— Marika Meyer
Slipper Satin by Farrow & Ball
Slipper Satin by Farrow & Ball has become one of our most beloved colors in recent years—we find it to have just enough pigment to give rooms the right amount of depth without being too overpowering. We’d call this color ‘neutral adjacent.’ ”
Mt. Rainier Gray by Benjamin Moore -Touches of icy blue and sleek gray come together in this soothing shade.
“I love Mt. Rainier Gray in Benjamin Moore’s Matte Regal Select collection. The icy blue tone with touches of gray resembles the sky, imbuing any space with a sense of calm. Mt. Rainier Gray is an ideal backdrop for any style that sparks joy in one’s life.” —Courtney McLeod, Right Meets Left Design
