Paint Colors that Look Expensive

We love using rich, warm, atmospheric palettes because they give clients’ homes a sophisticated and high-end feel.

Chocolate browns and warm deep burgundies add depth and instant drama, making spaces feel enveloping and rich without being overwhelming. 

One of our favorites is Sherwin Williams Sommelier, SW 7595. A deep and moody wine-red, this rich, dramatic hue channels the luxurious essence of aged wine, evoking refinement, craftsmanship, and timeless allure. Its depth immediately commands attention, enveloping spaces in a sense of quiet luxury that feels curated and intentional.

It pairs beautifully with soft neutrals like creamy whites, warm greys, or taupe to balance its boldness. Two of our favorites are Benjamin Moore Ballet White (OC-9), Sherwin Williams Tony Taupe (SW 7038) and Loggia (SW 7506). For a bold, modern pairing, add black or dark grey accents for a dramatic, high-contrast look.
