Cozy it up

Adding earthy browns, oranges and other shades of green as accent colors can really make your home's exterior finish pop.

Affinity interior paint colors are available in compatible color schemes, so you can make the inside of your home match the unique look of your home's exterior.

If you are concerned about your impact on the environment, you can ask about using a zero-VOC paint, one with no volatile organic compounds, such as the Benjamin Moore Natura No-VOC paint. This line of paint is designed to have lower emissions, while still providing you with a full range of paint colors to accent your home.
