Painting interior brick wall ideas

White-washed simplicity of brick walls

For many seasons now, white-washed brick walls continue to be one of the most favoured trends in interior design and for a good reason too! That method can create a very sophisticated yet relaxed vibe in any space. What’s more, white brick walls match numerous styles, and you can easily incorporate them in minimalistic, rustic, industrial or eclectic interiors. If you want to add a little bit of spin on that trend, choose eggshell, cream, beige or light grey paint, which is also quite universal.

Bold accent walls

Light and delicate colours are not the only ones you can use for painting interior bricks. If you want to create a bold accent wall in one of your rooms, choose more adventurous shades. You can go for a classic red look that will match really well to any industrial spaces, or select something more refined and daring like black, navy, burgundy or deep green. Darker colours will look particularly well with light furniture and enable them to take centre stage.

Geometric designs

Of course, indoor brick paint can be used to make much more exciting projects! One of the most popular approaches is to create a geometric pattern that can become the focal point of any room. The most basic version of that concept is to paint one half of the wall one colour and the other one with a different shade. The dividing line can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal, depending on your preferences. If you want to create a more ambitious project, paint geometric figures that will match the design of your interior. So if the room is full of sharp and crisp lines, you can reflect them on the wall with triangles, squares, rectangles and other lines. Or you can counterbalance the design with soft and gentle strokes. The project may seem a little complicated, but you can do it all yourself with painter's tape and patience.

Indoor brick paint - minimalist paintings

If you don’t want to paint the whole brick wall, you can select only one part of it and use it to create natural and minimalistic work of art. How? Uncover bricks at one spot of the plastered walls, create clean edges that will serve as a frame and paint the exposed area with the chosen colour. 

Of course, instead of painting the bricks, you can also buy the cladding that’s already in the colour you want to have in your interiors. No matter if you prefer white, grey, cream, brown, yellow, or black bricks, you will definitely find your favourite shade! Check our brick panel system!
