Picking a paint color that you love is one of the most important decisions when designing or redecorating a space. It sets the tone for the entire room and can influence the way you feel in that space. It can be tricky to pick the right color especially when Sherwin-Williams has over 1,700 paint color options to choose from!
I'm going to share my top picks for 2025 + the tried and true favorites that I think I'll always like and recommend to clients.
2025 Favorite: Tricorn Black
This color has always been one of my favorites. I'm starting to see more and more of our clients interested in dark/moody colors. I just painted my home office this color. I've seen it used subtly (like the bottom of an island) and not so subtly – an entire room or kitchen cabinets (*see picture above).

2025 Favorite: Loggia
This is a new favorite that hasn't been on my radar until recently when I used it on the walls of a kitchen remodel. It's described as a warm stone gray. Looks great with white-painted cabinetry in a kitchen or bathroom. *Pictured to the left – the cabinetry is painted Pearly White.

My Go-To Paint Color List
Yep, you see Tricorn Black on this list too! I guess that is just how much I love that color 😉
This list didn't come easily – it took years and years of painting walls, cabinets, doors + more to truly see and experience them in homes.

Picking a Color: My Tips
-Make a list of the colors you don't like
-Think about what inspires you. Is it nature? A painting? A picture of another home that you like?
-Don't buy a bunch of little paint cans of your top choices. Instead, use Samplize so you can get large peel & stick paint samples! I can't recommend this enough!
