Here it is, folks: Our definitive list of the best exterior house colors 2022 has to offer. We’ve assessed trends from 2021, poured through our favorite vendors’ samples and catalogues, and chatted amongst ourselves about the designs we’re loving now and what we see on the horizon. And we’re excited to share our favorite paint colors of the year with you.

#1 // Aegean Olive

Earth tones and nature-inspired color palettes are à la mode in 2022. Aegean Olive is a warm, deep brown-green that we’re loving for clients who want to go earthy. It’s a beautiful accent color, but our designers also recommend it as a base color, as on the monochrome brick home above.

#2 // Black Forest Green

Black Forest Green is one of our favorite dark shades for exteriors in 2022. It’s a blackened shade of green with an LRV of 2.72, meaning it’s unabashedly dark. We love the weight, warmth, and complexity of Black Forest Green.

#3 // Sussex Green

On the lighter side of greens and earth tones is another of our 2022 favorites: Sussex Green. It’s still on the dark end, with an LRV just shy of 20, but it feels fresh and warm, especially in settings that get a lot of natural light. We love pairing Sussex Green with copper accents.

#4 // Deep River

Transitioning away from greens but still in the realm of dark complex neutrals is Deep River. This dark gray paint color has blue undertones. Our designers are turning to Deep River more and more often for clients requesting the modern farmhouse look with a bit of an edge.

#5 // Ocean Floor

Ocean Floor is another deep gray, but its blue undertones are more pronounced than those of Deep River. It has an LRV of 12.5, so it’s still dark. If you’re looking for blue exterior house colors in 2022, Ocean Floor should be on your radar.
