75 of Our Most Colorful House Tours of All Time

From pastel to saturated, from neon to nature-inspired, color is one of the most engaging and important decor elements you can use to design a home. It’s not hyperbolic to describe color as powerful. Even adding a pale hint of blush pink can be a huge transformation. “Pops of color” is an overused phrase, but for good reason: Sprinkling just a few splashes of your favorite hue can completely revitalize a space. It’s a deep, daring, broad subject… and it’s why we’re dedicating an entire month to it. 

This list was tough to narrow down. I should know: I personally combed through years of our house tours to find the homes that stood out, thanks to their bold use of color. It wasn’t easy, but these 75 homes represent some of the best, most vivid homes I’ve seen. The gallery is organized in order of the rainbow, so you’ll see homes with lots of red color first, then orange, then yellow… you get the idea. I saved the homes with the biggest variety of colors for the end, so you’ll have to scroll through to see their multicolor amazingness!

Lilly Garcia lives in this Florida home with her husband, Israel, and their dogs. “Our style is pretty much a combination of thrift and marketplace finds.

Don’t try to fit into colorless aesthetics when you are not afraid of color or vibrancy.”
