Make your room feel bigger or embrace its coziness with these colours.

Choosing the perfect hue for a small space often means finding a colour that can do double duty, like one that works for an office and a guest room or a home gym and a laundry room.

Start by focusing on the main goal of the room: does it need to feel calming, cozy, energizing, or take more of a backseat? Once you know your paint's purpose, you can choose the right colour.

Here are some of our favourite paint colours for small spaces of every type.
