What paint colours are popular in Heritage Valley homes?

The most popular paint colours in Heritage Valley homes are warm whites like Benjamin Moore Simply White (OC-117) and Chantilly Lace (OC-65), greige tones like Revere Pewter (HC-172) and Edgecomb Gray (HC-173), and contemporary greys like Sherwin-Williams Repose Gray (SW 7015). Bold accent walls in navy (Hale Navy HC-154), forest green (Essex Green HC-188), and charcoal (Wrought Iron 2124-10) are increasingly popular in Heritage Valley's newer homes. iPaint Painting includes a complimentary colour consultation with every project.

Warm Whites: The Foundation Colour for Heritage Valley

Approximately 60 to 70 percent of Heritage Valley interior painting projects use a warm white as the primary wall colour. These tones brighten open-concept floor plans (common in homes built after 2012) while staying warmer than stark whites that can feel clinical under Edmonton's winter light. Benjamin Moore Simply White has been the number-one selling white in Canada for three consecutive years, and its soft yellow undertone pairs naturally with the warm-toned LVP flooring and wood-look cabinetry found throughout Heritage Valley.

For homeowners who prefer a brighter, crisper look, Chantilly Lace offers a nearly true white with minimal undertone. It works especially well in south-facing Heritage Valley homes that receive abundant natural light through large front windows.

Greige and Grey: The Versatile Middle Ground

Greige (grey plus beige) remains the second most requested colour family in Heritage Valley. Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter has held its position as one of the top-five best-selling colours in North America since 2015. Its balanced warm-cool undertone works in north-facing and south-facing rooms alike, eliminating the guesswork of how a colour will shift throughout the day.

Edgecomb Gray is a lighter alternative that reads as a barely-there neutral. On the cooler side, Sherwin-Williams Repose Gray offers a true grey with a hint of warmth that prevents it from looking blue. These colours are popular in Heritage Valley's Allard and Cavanagh sub-communities, where modern farmhouse and transitional design styles dominate.

Bold Accent Walls: Adding Character

Heritage Valley homeowners are increasingly adding a single bold accent wall to break up neutral spaces. The top three accent colours iPaint Painting applies in the area are:

• Hale Navy (HC-154): A deep, sophisticated navy that works behind built-in shelving, in home offices, and as a dining room feature wall.
• Essex Green (HC-188): A rich forest green that pairs with brass hardware and natural wood tones. Trending strongly since 2023.
• Wrought Iron (2124-10): A warm charcoal that reads nearly black in dim light but reveals depth in natural light. Popular for fireplace accent walls.
