Moody Paint Colors: A Bold Trend in Shoreline Construction Homes

At Shoreline Construction, we've been loving the trend of incorporating dark, moody paint colors into our homes this year. These deeper shades have the power to transform any space into a sophisticated and cozy retreat, perfectly blending style and comfort.

From deep blues and rich greens to charcoal grays, dark colors are gaining popularity for their ability to add depth, drama, and a sense of luxury to any room. But how do you incorporate these bold hues into your home, especially in the bright, airy atmosphere of South Carolina's Lowcountry?


Incorporating Darker Colors in Your Lowcountry Home

It's true that the Lowcountry has long favored light-colored walls and crisp white trim, which can make the thought of going dark feel intimidating. However, integrating moody colors doesn't mean you have to overhaul your entire aesthetic. Instead, it's about blending these two styles to create a harmonious balance.

We often suggest starting small—consider using a moody color in a more intimate space like a home office, study, powder room, or a cozy family room. From there, you can strategically carry that color throughout your home in subtle ways, whether it’s through accent walls, cabinetry, or decor elements. This approach allows the darker hues to feel like a deliberate and cohesive part of your design, rather than an isolated statement.


Our Favorite Moody Blues

Our interior designers at Shoreline Construction have a few favorite dark blues that we frequently use in home office spaces, including Sherwin-Williams Outerspace, Sherwin-Williams Software, and Sherwin-Williams Web Gray. These shades bring a serene yet sophisticated vibe that is perfect for focused, creative spaces.


Whether you’re dreaming of building a custom home in the Lowcountry, planning a renovation, or looking to refresh your interiors, Shoreline Construction is ready to support you at every stage. Reach out to us today—we’d love to bring your vision to life!
