If you think light shades are “out,” think again.
In Winnipeg’s 2025 design scene, soft, airy colors aren’t just surviving — they’re thriving.

At Integrity Painting, we’re seeing firsthand what colors homeowners and property managers are choosing to refresh their spaces. Spoiler: Light is leading the way, but it’s evolving in smart, strategic ways.

Let’s dive into what’s trending — and what it means if you’re planning your next paint project.

1. Warm Neutrals Are Replacing Stark Whites

Forget cold, sterile whites.
2025 is all about soft beiges, warm greiges, and creamy off-whites that bring comfort without feeling dated.

These shades still offer the versatility and brightness people love about light colors — but now with more depth and livability.
Especially in Winnipeg’s long winters, these cozy tones create a much-needed sense of warmth inside homes and commercial spaces alike.

2. Muted Pastels Are the New Accent Colors

Designers are leaning into muted sage greens, soft blues, and dusty pinks as accent shades — perfect for feature walls, cabinetry, or even whole rooms.

Unlike loud, trendy colors that date quickly, these pastel-inspired tones are timeless, especially when paired with warm light neutrals.

At Integrity Painting, we help homeowners and property managers select light shades that stay stylish year after year, not just for the season.

3. Light Shades Are Going Bold in Commercial Spaces Too

It’s not just residential design following the light shade trend.
Winnipeg’s commercial spaces — offices, condo lobbies, even retail stores — are shifting toward bright, welcoming palettes too.

Light shades help enhance natural light, make spaces feel larger, and create a premium atmosphere — perfect for businesses wanting to leave a lasting impression.

Integrity Painting’s commercial team understands how color psychology impacts your space — and how to align paint choices with your business goals.
