Decorating your senior apartment is one of the great joys of moving to a new home in a senior living community. There are few more satisfying feelings than creating a space that’s truly your own. However, with the vast array of colors to choose from, finding the best paint colors for you can be a long, drawn-out process. For your inspiration, consider these 2024 paint color trends that move away from muted neutral colors and instead feature a delightful mix of cozy persimmon, warm yellow, dramatic black and a variety of different shades of blue.

Thermal

C2’s 2024 color of the year is Thermal, a mid-tone blue reminiscent of crisp fall skies and cozy winter scenes. The color is bright yet calming, making it an excellent choice for large spaces.

Skipping Stones

Give any space a bright and invigorating update with Skipping Stones by Dunn-Edwards. The brand’s color of the year is a cool, breezy blue that pairs well with warm whites, beiges, and natural elements.

Upward

Sherwin-Williams’ 2024 color of the year is a bright and breezy blue that was designed to infuse peacefulness into any space. Use this shade of blue as you would a neutral, painting walls or ceilings with the light blue, and accenting with light, earth-tone accents. Or use the cool hue on an accent wall to make wainscoting or wall paneling pop without overwhelming the space.

Renew Blue

Valspar’s pick for 2024 color of the year is Renew Blue, a calming, meditative shade of soft sky blue. Use Renew Blue in a bathroom with coastal accents, like a jute runner or driftwood accessories, to create a seaside escape. Or pair it with bright white in the kitchen for a crisp, clean look with the perfect pop of color.

Limitless

Glidden’s color of the year is a warm, nearly yellow neutral that can be paired with almost any color scheme. It’s versatile enough to be used on large surfaces, such as kitchen cabinets and walls or smaller areas like baseboards and ceilings. Since the hue is both light and warm, it can make spaces feel larger, brighter and more welcoming.

Persimmon

Cheery Persimmon is designed to bring lightness and energy to the gathering spaces of your home. It’s bright without being overwhelming, thanks to neutral, pastel-like undertones that provide a warm, welcoming feel.

Cracked Pepper

Behr’s color of the year is Cracked Pepper, a deep almost-black charcoal hue. The moody shade adds sophistication to any space and is neutral enough to adapt to any design style, from midcentury modern to rustic farmhouse.
