Whether the budding blooms make you want to spend more time outside or reach for an extra Claritin, one thing is for sure: All those gorgeous new spring colors after a season of grayscale make us want to freshen up our own interior design color palette. The start of spring always has us ready to go all-out with the season's prettiest hues, whether by swapping accents, arranging some flowers in a fitting vessel, or a full-blown redesign. Get inspired with some of our favorite rooms from the House Beautiful archives and beyond—from iconic combos like pink and green to a few unexpected pairings (and even a bit of bold black), they're filled with all the springtime palette inspiration you need.
1 Bubblegum, Lilac, and Red
“We wanted the floral to be funky, not romantic,” says homeowner Carice van Houten. She worked with Atelier ND to bring her vision to life, ultimately landing on this lively mix of patterns, colors, and styles. The midcentury additions, like the room-spanning green carpet, orange blinds, plaid coverlet, and Bella Freud 1970 pillow all bring an edge to the House of Hackney floral and pink painted trim.
2 Sky Blue and Silver
Sheila Bridges went glam in this small Manhattan kitchen, pairing cabinets in Benjamin Moore’s Hemlock with her own metallic Torino Damask wallpaper.
3 Porcelain and Caramel
Rich caramel leather isn't just for dark, somber studies, it works well in fresh spaces, too. Designed by Ellen Kavanaugh, this Palm Beach living room is traditional and formal, yet youthful and approachable. That's largely thanks to the fresh color scheme of rich blue, mint green, pale pink, and caramel. Dramatic cherry blossoms never hurt either.
4 Yellow and White
One way to ensure a bright start to the day? Deck your breakfast room out in a mood-boosting shade of yellow, like Krista Ewart did in the same Westchester home.
5 Cornflower and Fuchsia
Nothing says spring quite like baby blue, green, and pink. Designer Melanie Turner turned the classic pairing up a notch with a hit of bright fuchsia in the piping and centerpiece.
6 Lemon, Lime, and Mint
Pheobe Howard chose a playful and peppy color scheme of greens, yellows, and blues in her historic Palm Beach home. Subtle moss greens speak to deeper forest shades and bright minty tones. The seagrass and jute accents keep all the pastels and tropical colors grounded.
7 Peach and Ivory
Beige doesn't have to be boring! Kristin Fine gave a traditional armchair a second life with contemporary boucle fabric, which looks especially cozy against the ivory and peach tones. The color palette helps soften the darker wood exposed beam on the ceiling. Read More...
