As the days grow longer and the sunshine spills in, summer brings the perfect excuse to refresh your space. A seasonal color update can do wonders to lift the mood of your home, making each room feel brighter, warmer, and more in tune with the laid-back energy of summertime.
At McCalls Carpet One, we believe great design starts from the ground up, and that includes pairing trending color palettes with flooring that pulls the whole look together. Ready to explore this year’s hottest shades? Let’s take a look at the colors turning heads in Summer 2025.
Golden Hour Glow: Warm Neutrals That Radiate Calm
If you’re looking for a palette that brings serenity and sophistication, warm neutrals are leading the way this season. Think sun-washed creams, soft oatmeals, and buttery beige tones that mimic the natural golden hour glow.
These calming hues:
- Pair beautifully with light wood floors or cozy loop carpets
- Work well in living rooms, bedrooms, and open floor plans
- Create a clean and airy foundation for layering in texture and personality
Whether you’re after something classic or coastal, these shades make it easy to build a timeless space.
Bold Botanicals: Bringing the Outside In
This summer, nature-inspired tones are having a moment—especially rich leafy greens, earthy browns, and clay-inspired colors. These grounded hues invite calm and create a sense of connection to the outdoors.
Incorporate bold botanicals by:
- Painting an accent wall in olive or forest green
- Layering in terracotta decor or botanical prints
- Pairing with wood-look luxury vinyl or distressed hardwood floors for a natural vibe
These colors are perfect for cozy reading nooks, home offices, or spaces where you want to recharge.
Sunset-Inspired Shades: Coral, Clay & Dusty Rose
There’s something about a summer sunset that never goes out of style—and now those warm, saturated tones are making their way into homes. From dusty rose to soft clay and coral, these colors add a playful pop that still feels refined.
Use these shades to:
- Add visual warmth with throw pillows, curtains, or rugs
- Accent neutral walls with blush or terracotta accessories
- Ground the look with a natural oak floor or neutral-toned carpet
They work especially well in kids’ rooms, guest rooms, or anywhere you want a little extra energy.
Crisp & Cool: Ocean Blues and Misty Teals
For those who love a coastal feel, this year’s blues are light, misty, and full of movement. Soft aqua, foggy teal, and icy blue tones bring a refreshing touch to your interiors and help smaller spaces feel open and airy.
Try them in:
- Bathrooms, laundry rooms, or sunrooms for a fresh finish
- Bedrooms for a spa-like, serene vibe
- Spaces with whitewashed wood, light vinyl plank, or soft gray carpet to complete the breezy look
Cool and calming, these colors are perfect for balancing out the summer heat.
Don’t Forget the Floor: Tie It All Together
Flooring plays a bigger role in your home’s color palette than you might think. It’s the backdrop to every color choice, furniture piece, and design accent.
To match your favorite summer shades, consider:
- Warm-toned hardwood to complement neutrals and sunset hues
- Waterproof vinyl in earthy tones to pair with botanicals
- Soft, textured carpet in versatile shades to let your walls and decor shine
