Porch Paint Ideas: Beyond Neutral

Ready to upgrade your staycation? Benjamin Moore’s wide range of exterior paints and stains transform outdoor spaces into at-home sanctuaries.

Your porch is the ultimate “outside room.” Before you start looking for the perfect patio paint color to extend your interior outdoors, consider how much sun it gets, since light and time of day affect paint color appearance.

Colorful accessories are an easy and cost-effective way to elevate a porch or patio. Here, Adirondack chairs in Caliente AF-290 and light pink pillows add fun against cool Nimbus Gray 2131-50 siding, paired with monochromatic gray floors in Normandy 2129-40, ARBORCOAT® Exterior Stain, Semi-Solid. Other porch paint colors we love include Georgian Brick HC-50, Hawthorne Yellow HC-4 and Kennebunkport Green HC-123.

Feeling in a DIY mood? You can easily repaint or stain your existing outdoor patio furniture in a weekend! Simply choose a wood stain color and get started.

The Beauty of a Light Blue Ceiling

Always popular in the southern United States, blue porch ceilings have made their way north over time. Light blue porch ceilings are beloved for matching the color of the sky, helping to visually extend daylight.

You can achieve this look with Palladian Blue HC-144, Arctic Blue 2050-60, Yarmouth Blue HC-150, or Clear Skies 2054-70. Pair these light blues with White Diamond OC-61, a cool white trim, to draw eyes to the ceiling, and explore other whites in our Off White Collection.
