Today’s modern home takes design to a new level. With all the decor options and colour inspiration to choose from, it’s no wonder everyone is trying their hand at it. What we love is when colours emerge that we simply fall in love with because they are absolutely breathtaking. Recently, Pantone announced the 2026 colour palette, and we are so ready. Bold colours, romantic shades and some neutral hues–with lots of variation in between. Let’s take a look at this year’s choices and how they can be used to craft unique style in interior design.
Pantone Power
Designing a home with colour sounds like an easy task, but really, it requires thought into how the colours work together. This year’s colour inspiration comes from a range of colours, from bright, vivid hues to soft, muted tones. See what draws your attention and how you want to use them in your own home.
Play it Neutral
Neutral colours are beautiful, offering classic tones that provide a good foundation, often found in nature. Think woodsy and cozy in deeper green hues paired with lighter beige and cream. The easy flow makes them an inspiration. Pantone offers colours to elevate the space and offer a fresh look for your home. The possibilities are endless!
Let Nature Speak
Nature is always an inspiration for design, and we are here for it. Recently, we’ve seen botanicals, butterflies, floral prints, and more. Why not? The colour inspiration from nature in pretty greens, golds, and beige tones can be great talking points in your home. Bring a natural feel to your space that inspires you and rejuvenates your home at the same time. Design your space to feel like a breath of fresh air outside and let nature inspire your creativity.
Dining Room Inspiration
Everyone is talking about dining these days. For good reason! Everyone loves a center point in the home, a space to gather with loved ones and enjoy some moments of peace. Gathering over a meal, enjoying conversation–aren’t these good for the soul? It all happens around the dining table. Get that conversation going with beautiful design, including bold elements or creative artwork. The Pantone palette is a great starting place in colour inspiration.
Kitchen Colour Inspiration
Come, step into the kitchen after a tiring day of being out and about or working long hours. Rest and relax in a space that has bold, beautiful colours mixed with some neutrals. Pantone offers flexibility in pairing colours like bold green with accents in white. With the right window coverings, your kitchen can come alive with colour and design. Ease the stress of your day with a nice cup of tea or a glass of wine. Share moments with friends over appetizers, just chatting about your day. Make the kitchen the focal point of your home with breathtaking design, and you will never want to leave!
Live More Boldly
Inside a living room is an entire space designed for relaxation. Why not pick colours to match your mood? If you want bold and beautiful, go for it! This year’s palette offers luxurious colours to create an atmosphere of elegance and charm. Colour choice really does create ambiance in a space. Choose to surround yourself with what you love.
Bedroom Design
The bedroom is one place you definitely want to rest and feel at home. Cozy, soft decor is often paired with the window coverings that can both filter light and block light, sometimes done in layers of draperies and shades. Window coverings are an ideal way to bring colors, patterns and textures into the bedroom. We love the colour inspiration of this grey bedroom with dusty rose accents. It’s warm and inviting–an upscale feel that still creates comfort.
Bathroom Bliss
Modern home design is about choosing the colours and designs that inspire you. A well-designed bathroom is a moment all its own, so let your personality shine. Bathrooms can often be neglected rooms, but they deserve a bit of color, design, and creativity. Mix colours and patterns for a bold finish, or stick with earthy, muted hues to create your own sanctuary. You’ll enjoy having this beautiful, blissful space to enjoy in little moments throughout the day.
