Find Agent

1. Project Color by Home Depot

When selling your home, you need to show it off in its best light … and shade of paint. The National Association of Realtors highlights blue color schemes as a popular trend for 2024. Multiple paint companies, including Benjamin Moore with “Blue Nova” and Sherwin-Williams with “Upward,” have selected shades of blue as their Color of the Year for 2024.

The Project Color app by Home Depot saves you time running back and forth to the store for paint samples to slather on the walls. The app uses AR technology to superimpose actual paint shades over your camera’s view of your home. Simply take a photo of your room or choose “live view,” find the color you’re considering, and tap a surface in the image to apply the color for a preview.

Here are a few of the things you can do with the app:

  • Browse through a vast inventory of colors from the comfort of your home using your phone
  • Get inspired by checking out popular colors or getting advice on mood-setting shades
  • Color match by snapping a photo of a shade you love to find the closest Home Depot paint color
  • Search for specific color names or numbers
  • Purchase paint through the app for pick-up at your nearest Home Depot or delivery
  • Save your favorite paint shades in the apps
