Get ready to dip those brushes! In 2026, home design is all about warmth, depth, and nature-inspired palettes. We are officially waving goodbye to stark whites and “sad” cool grays.
What’s Hot for 2026:
Mushroom Neutrals: This is the breakout star of the year! Think of a soft, earthy tone that sits perfectly between taupe and grayge—it’s organic, sophisticated, and looks incredible under mountain light.
Restorative Greens: Sage, olive, and eucalyptus are everywhere. These tones evoke a sense of calm that mirrors the beautiful Ashe County landscape.
Rich Jewel Tones: For those who love a statement, deep reds like mahogany and oxblood are making a major comeback to add drama and soul to your space.
How to Update Your Home: Try “color drenching”—painting your walls, trim, and even ceilings in the same hue for a cozy, high-end look.
Need a home with better light to show off these colors? Beverly Black at Ashe County Realty has an eye for design and can help you find a West Jefferson gem that’s the perfect blank canvas!
