Spring Colors to Use to Brighten Your Home No Matter the Season? ›

Nature's vibrant and fresh hues as it transitions from winter often inspire springtime colors. Soft pastels like baby blue, mint green, and blush pink mirror the early spring flowers and clear skies. Meanwhile, sunny yellows and lush greens are popular colors representing the season of new beginnings.

Bright Spring falls at the Winter end of the Spring palette, making it easy to see why the colours get clearer, brighter and less warm than those of the other Spring types. Bright Spring's best colours are the bright blues and true reds, dove greys and more acidic yellows.

Warm Spring's best colours are usually warm greens, yellows, orangey reds, very peachy (yellowed) pinks and every shade of brown from dark tan to palest beige.

"We found that pastels—such as lilac, butter yellow, and glacial blue—led [spring 2024's] color levels to replace dopamine brights," she says, citing data gathered through the trend forecasting company's color analysis tools.

Sunshine Yellow

This cheerful color brightens up wardrobes and interiors, bringing a feeling of energy to any space. Whether in soft pastel tones or bold shades, yellow embodies the spirit of spring.

Worst Colors: Black, Burgundy, Dark Plum, dark muted colors. The Light Spring is a blend of both Spring and Summer (or Spring “flowing into” Summer). Due to the blend of both warm and cool seasons, there will be a neutrality to your look, particularly when compared to the warm spring.

There is no place for black or dark blue here! Fabulous delicate shades: gold, beige, peach, khaki, chocolate milk, creamy coffee.

Toned-down and muted colors such as dusty blues and muddy browns will wash out the natural brightness of your warm spring palette, making it very hard to achieve its maximum potential warmth. Aside from dark neutrals such as black and white, you should also avoid harsh, dark colors.

Cream is Spring's version of white - so much brighter and kinder on Spring's complexion than true stark white. Look for creams which have an underlying brightness, no greying to this neutral. Think of double cream, buttermilk and vanilla custard - a neutral that's good enough to eat!

Bright Spring is the brightest and darkest of the three palettes, whereas Light Spring can take lighter varieties of colours, and True Springs colours are much warmer. Light and Bright Springs are not as cool in their undertones as True Winters, as both of these neighbours the warm spring and autumn seasons.

What is the luxury color palette for 2024? ›

Dark and light shades of green were emerging color trends in 2024 and a top accent color for many. We've also seen neon green come up as a popular accent color to dark purple, fuchsia, and charcoal shades. Green works well in industries that want to have a cool, calm, and collected appearance.

While we're used to seeing pastels and floral-inspired colors in the spring, this year, spring nail colors are bolder and brighter. Think fiery reds, splashy blues, and even vivid yellows alongside classic springtime hues like lavender and pink.

While blues, greens, and cool gray shades are all enjoying a moment in the spotlight, however, classic neutrals and timeless warm tones certainly still have a place in our homes.

In contrast to the light pastels, dark and rich blue hues like royal blue and navy blue are so in for Spring. While light colors for Spring are the tradition, we saw many designers go the opposite route with these deep blues. The best part is, these are hues that you can effortlessly transition into your Fall wardrobe.

Warm Spring is the True Spring color type. Your palette includes warm greens, yellows, orange reds, peach pink colors, and all shades of light brown from beige to brown. Although Spring is usually a season of lighter colors, the colors of Warm Spring are deeper and more saturated than we might first think.

If you haven't worn purple in a while you might be surprised how easy it is to incorporate into your spring wardrobe.

Bright Spring natural hair colours are most often brown, though red and blonde are also possible.

There is no greying to it at all; it is definitely not a soft colour. Imagine mixing a 'true' navy (i.e. sea captain uniform) with a bit of cobalt blue to achieve the perfect shade for Springs. Getting into a true navy makes for too dark a colour for Springs to take with their clear bright colouring.

Bright Winter and Bright Spring have a range of colours we might call “hot pink”. Both seasons are high-chroma neutral, so these pinks can sometimes look pretty similar. Plus they're really popular in fashion and styling which means there are lots of options out there.

Springs and Red go together like peaches and cream, I always think. Clear, fresh, upbeat reds make for the brightest and best colour pops in Spring's warm, clear palette. From pinkish Watermelon and Strawberry to brightest Geranium and Poppy, your reds are all bold, confident and engaging.
