Sherwin Williams Repose Gray

If you are hunting for a classic hue for your laundry room, a clean gray like Repose Gray is an ideal choice according to Ashley Moore of Moore House Interiors. This color, she says, creates "a look that will be classic for many years" so it's a great option for a big laundry room update.

On the other hand, a laundry room is also a great place to experiment with color, says Moore. "Laundry rooms are their own space, so don’t feel like you have to make the laundry room design the same as other rooms in the house," she says. "You can give them their own unique design and ‘personality’ with fun paint colors."

A pop of color like Sherwin-Williams Festoon Aqua gives a laundry room a bit of interest, without feeling too punchy.

Benjamin Moore Pure Joy

Want to add an energetic burst of color to keep you motivated on those long Sunday chore days? Consider yellow paint, says Michelle Lisac of Michelle Lisac Interior Design. A pop of color such as Pure Joy on an interior door or a built-in storage unit is a wonderful way to transform a laundry room without a lot of effort.

Benjamin Moore Classic Gray

While bright colors are fun for a hint of the unexpected, Lisac's favorite choice for a laundry room is a simple neutral like Classic Gray. But if you're worried about a light color getting messy in a laundry room, Lisac says to focus on a paint's durability. "Make sure you choose a paint and a sheen that will hold up to water and dirt," she says. "An eggshell finish is wipeable but not super shiny."

Benjamin Moore Dove White

Sometimes the best choice is the simplest one. Carli Roger of Citizen and Co. absolutely loves Dove White. This neutral white color is soft enough to play well with nearly any paired hue, but offers just enough depth and a hint of warmth to work on its own as well.

Green is a fresh color that evokes the feeling of renewal and energy, so it's no surprise designers love using it in their laundry rooms.

Black is an unexpected color that will pack a big punch in a laundry room, says Michelle Salz-Smith of Studio Surface. "It feels edgy and somehow still clean," she says. "It's a great counterpoint to terra cotta flooring and a patterned backsplash."
