Best Office Paint Colors for Productivity & Focus

A modern home office

Last updated November 12, 2024

The best office paint colors enhance the type of atmosphere you want to encourage in office design. For example, blue and green have been shown to increase concentration and innovation. They reduce stress and are ideal colors for commercial spaces to keep staff focused, comfortable and alert.


In contrast, less effective office wall colors include white and yellow. Studies have shown participants make more errors while working in all-white rooms, and that yellow increases anxiety. However, these shades can make for good accent colors in offices with otherwise darker color schemes.


This guide covers 10 of the best paint colors for traditional and home offices, plus tips on selecting a paint color that suits your location and staff.
