Best Dark Brown Paint Colors

My favorite rich dark brown paint colors are in this post!

We have be in the grey color world for a long time now. It was only a matter of time that we would swing back around to our trusted brown color. But this time a rich chocolate brown paint color is in.

Sophisticated and dramatic, a deep brown paint color can make a huge impact in a room without it feeling too cold.

Let me share my favorites with real home examples.

Best Dark Brown Paint Colors

1. Black Fox from Sherwin Williams

This paint color looks so good with vintage antique colors. These aren’t listed in any particular order but it’s definitely fighting for the number one spot!

2. Hearthstone Brown from Benjamin Moore

This is a rich, dark chocolate color that would look so good painted in a cozy family room like this image. Such an amazing rich brown.

3. Silhouette from Benjamin Moore

Probably the ‘lightest’ of the dark brown colors on this list, it’s just a stunning dark brown. The monochromatic color scheme with the trim painted the same color is definitely growing me.

4. Stone Brown from Benjamin Moore

Does this color ever look good with leather camel colors! This looks like a gorgeous milky chocolate bar.

5. Tanner’s Brown Farrow & Ball

Okay not really a fan of the red ceiling but the richness of this dark brown is exotic looking! Love it with the black accents.

6. Wenge from Benjamin Moore

Wow, this board and batten wall treatment makes it look just like a chocolate bar. Now I’m hungry. The darkest color of my favorite dark brown paint list and I’m surprised by how much I love it.

7. Urbane Bronze from Sherwin Williams

Probably the most famous of all the dark brown paint colors on the market, there’s a reason why so many designers chose this one over and over again. It’s neither grey or brown. It is the perfect in between color.

8. Barista from Benjamin Moore

This color makes everything painted in it look rich and luxurious. What a gorgeous room to boot!

9. French Press from Benjamin Moore

This is a perfect classic dark brown color without it looking too dark. This would look cozy in a bedroom!
