Interior Design Trends for 2022

Henry Weber • February 23, 2022

If you are hoping to enter the new year with a home renovation project, consider some of the latest interior design trends for 2022. At MasterBrush Painting, we’ve chosen some of our favorite trends and put together some ways you can incorporate a fresh coat of paint into your new year’s resolutions.

Black Accents with Neutral Colors

If you are looking for a way to add some edge to your space, consider using black accents and hardware such as mirrors, lamps or even changing the handles to black on your side tables. This will add a pop of contrast to the space. We recommend using a neutral color palette for your paint with these darker accents. Currently, warm neutrals such as sandy beige with red undertones and greige are popular with many homeowners and look great with darker accents.
You can also balance the space with sheer curtains in creamy white tones, rugs with neutral color designs, and throw pillows in your favorite warm neutral tone.

Create an Elegant Mix of Dark and Earth Tones

In 2022, the popularity of color combinations such as dark colors and earthy tones is on the rise. Earthy green shades are particularly popular and look great in combination with a mix of black and gray.

Greens like emerald-green, light grey-green, and sage green are popular and versatile hues to consider. You can also add brown or copper accents such as a hammered metal chair or lamp to really boost the trendy look of the space.

To add to the earthiness of the space, consider adding a few houseplants in pots or hanging plants that match the color scheme. Adding houseplants to a space can help to promote a calming effect while also promoting clean air.

Add Some Sunshine with Citron and Other Earthy Hues

Nature-inspired colors are all the rage for 2022. Colors such as olive greens and citron yellows are two popular options. While originally thought of as dated and overwhelming, yellow is making a comeback as a way to add warmth to your space.
The buttery citrus tones are a great way to brighten and energize rooms such as your kitchen or living room. To add more interest to your cheery, yellow-toned room, consider adding textured fabrics such as velvet for a luxurious look or even fringe for a boho style. These cozy fabrics make the room more inviting while giving it a chic look. Since yellow provides a vintage look as well, you may consider shopping for vintage art or furniture pieces to compliment the room and add personality to the space.

Painting Your Property for Resale or Lease
23 May, 2024
The vibrant tapestry that is Pittsburgh's commercial real estate market is known for its diversity, from historic landmarks to modern enterprises. Yet, within this medley, the one constant that can either elevate or detract from the inherent value of any property is the perception of upkeep. This perception often starts with the visual, a simple yet powerful means to signal to potential buyers or leasers the care and investment that has been or will be made in the space. MasterBrush Painting, synonymous with precision and professionalism in Pittsburgh, stands ready to help you realize this potential. Here's how a new coat of paint can invigorate your commercial property and why MasterBrush is the partner of choice for this pivotal transformation. The Impact of Paint on Commercial Properties When making an impactful impression, a fresh paint job can differ between a nod of approval and a dismissive glance. In Pittsburgh's competitive real estate landscape, subtle signals often sway decisions, and a property that boasts of recent, high-quality painting sends a clear message of value and investment. Attracting Prospective Buyers or Tenants In the whirlwind tour encompassing property viewings, a freshly painted wall quietly proclaims that the premises are ready for occupancy or operation. It offers a canvas free of the previous occupant's narrative, allowing the prospect to envision their own. To resonate in a city that values hard work and a can-do spirit, one cannot underestimate the influence of a well-maintained space ready to serve the aspirations of its new stewards. Enhancing Property Value Perceived value is a substantial mover in the commercial sector, and paint is a direct actor in this script. Properties that shine with precise, professionally applied paint suggest that the potential buyer or tenant is acquiring a structure and a keenly tended investment. In this rhythm of acquisition, a nuanced understanding of color and finish and their role in valuation can boost returns significantly. Key Areas to Focus On When preparing for a property viewing, it’s not just about the paint but how and where it’s applied. Every brushstroke should echo the core values and vision you wish to convey. Exterior Facades and Signage The façade is the first glance, the silent yet significant handshake that introduces your property to the world. In Pittsburgh, a rich architectural tradition demands that this handshake be firm and adorned, signaling to passersby the strength and aesthetic appeal within. MasterBrush Painting's proficiency in reviving exteriors ensures this introduction is warming and winsome. Interior Common Areas and Offices Voluminous spaces where the community congregates, or commerce is conducted set the tone for the entire property. A beautifully painted common area fosters a positive attitude, creating a collective air of pride and belonging among prospective lessees. Meanwhile, when painted with a professional touch, offices the sanctums of productivity showcase a seriousness towards quality, a commitment to excellence that workers and clients will equally appreciate. Specialized Spaces In restaurants that beckon with the tang of local flavors, retail establishments that stage the interplay of product and purchase, and warehouses that whisper precision, painting plays a part in each identity. MasterBrush Painting understands the narrative inherent in space and tailors the palette to enhance the experience and the eventual transaction. Choosing the Right Colors and Finishes With every color and finish, there is an associated mood and message, an overtone or undertone that impacts decision making and desirability. Color Psychology in Commercial Spaces Bold, subdued, or neutral, every color choice is a positioning decision, reflecting brand or ambiance. What color conveys the essence of your space in harmony with its intent? MasterBrush Painting converges expertise with the client's story to select a hue that resonates with truth and promise. Durable and Appropriate Finishes In the chess game of commerce, durability is king. A finish that withstands traffic and time without compromising appeal is critical. Silks, mattes, or glosses should play their role unerringly. In navigating this, MasterBrush's counsel is a game-changer, ensuring the finish complements the function of the space. The MasterBrush Painting Advantage In the world of commercial painting, experience matters. It dictates not only the quality of the job but also the finesse to coordinate with your specific property nuances and schedules. Consultation and Customization The beauty is in the details, and the success of a painting project depends on a seamless integration of these details into a cohesive whole. MasterBrush Painting's reputation rests on its craftsmanship and consultative approach, creating spaces that reflect individuality within set parameters. Expertise in Commercial Painting Corners should not be cut but painted united to create an uninterrupted canvas. Entrusting the project to seasoned professionals ensures this level of detail that amateur hands cannot replicate. MasterBrush's portfolio brims with successful projects, each a testament to their understanding and execution of commercial painting needs. Preparing for a Commercial Painting Project Engaging in a painting project is not merely transactional; it is the start of a relationship that extends beyond the completion date. Proper planning and post-painting care are as intrinsic to the end product's longevity as the paint itself. Scheduling and Project Management Time is money, especially in the ceaseless metabolism of business. A commercial project calls for strategic scheduling, ensuring minimal disruption to daily operations. MasterBrush's project management ensures the calendar is adhered to with military precision, keeping inconvenience at bay. Maintenance Tips Post-Painting The brush may have drawn its last stroke, but the care guides the life of the transformation. MasterBrush equips you with the knowledge to maintain the sheen, offering a further horizon to the life span of the paint and, consequently, the lease or resale value proposition.
