The first trend to emerge from The Paint Shed’s Google search analysis was cool neutrals – a range of shades that provide the perfect backdrop no matter the colour of your furniture or accessories.

“Cool neutrals are an ever-popular choice, particularly for renters and those looking to sell their properties, as they offer a blank canvas on which to build most interior aesthetics on,” says Michael Rolland, interiors expert and managing director of The Paint Shed.

“They also allow personality to shine through using accessories, as these neutrals will complement any colours. Salt and Plummet in particular are safe popular shades.”
