When it comes to homes, white or neutral is often the default color choice, especially for doors. We love the look of white, as it is neutral and clean. The truth is, not all doors have to be painted white, and breaking out of this stereotypical mold can completely transform your home.
White doors create a sense of brightness and evoke a minimalist aesthetic, matching every inch of the room. This safe opportunity matches trim, ceilings, and baseboards, so why not?
The color that everyone leans towards means playing it safe. The color that everyone leans towards can also mean missing out on opportunities for boldness, personality, and creativity.
Color is power. Color shapes moods, feelings, and creativity while adding depth. Opting for that pop of color on your interior doors, you're introducing an unexpected moment—one that can be subtle and classic or bold and artistic.
How do you introduce the right color into your home by painting your door anything other than white?
- Tie it all together: Match your door to throw pillows, pictures, carpet, accessories, or even your dog.
- Express your personality: Are you bold and sassy? Check out Pink Wink. Feeling Earthy and neutral? Try Muted Sage.
- Check in with your aura: Find the color that matches you and your inner self.
