Featured Design Trend: Warm Neutrals—Today’s Sophisticated, Lasting Choice

‍Designers are moving beyond cool greys and embracing warm neutrals—think soft beige, taupe, and creamy terracotta—as the go-to palette for custom homes in 2025. These tones offer a cozy, elegant backdrop that works across both modern and traditional styles.

A standout example is Dunn-Edwards’ 2025 Color of the Year, "Caramelized," a soft, earthy terracotta-brown described as “the ultimate new neutral” that pairs effortlessly with vintage-inspired and contemporary interiors alike - Dunn-Edwards Paints.

Another great option is Benjamin Moore’s Color of the Year, "Cinnamon Slate," a delicate blend of plum and velvety brown. It brings warmth, depth, and approachability—making it excellent for accent walls, cabinets, or even living areas - The SpruceBenjamin Moore.
