The Perfect Paint Color For Each Pittsburgh Sports Team
Sam Lutz • May 26, 2015
We know how much you love your Pittsburgh sports teams! In honor of your feelings, we’ve used the Benjamin Moore color capture app
to pick the perfect Benjamin Moore paint colors for each Pittsburgh sports team. Now we invite you to take a look at our choices and let us know what you think.
Pittsburgh Penguins
The Penguins colors are bold but earthy, perfect for a bathroom, little boy’s bedroom or a man cave.
- Sulfur Yellow: This warm, relaxing neutral is the perfect base color for your walls, regardless of the size of the room.
- Simply White: It’s the color of snow, the color of hockey ice, the color of a penguin’s winter. Now it can be the color on your walls. We recommend using Simply White on the trim or on an accent wall.
- Universal Black: Deep and rich, this is the perfect color for an accent wall or the space below a chair rail.
Pittsburgh Steelers
We know you’ve been dreaming about making your spare bathroom a Steelers bathroom–and now you can, with these five bold Benjamin Moore paint colors.
- Yolk: This color is pretty much exactly what it sounds like: bright, bold and the color of egg yolk. This is the perfect color to paint one wall, or the room’s trim.
- Exotic Red (Logo): Exotic Red reminds us of the passion and excitement that we feel when we watch a Steeler’s game from Heinz field. Like Yolk, we recommend this color to be used for an accent wall.
- Evening Blue (Logo): Bold and thoughtful, Evening Blue is an excellent choice to use for the base color of the walls, or an accent wall.
- Simply White and Universal Black: We’re pairing these colors together because we already talked about them individually in the section above. We recommend using either color as the base color for your walls, the paint for the doors or for the trim.
Pittsburgh Pirates
Little boys and girls alike will love their bedrooms to be painted in the daring, bold colors of the Pittsburgh pirates.
- Sparkling Sun: This hue is a lot like Yolk in the Steelers colors above, but just a little bit more tame–perfect for a sunny bedroom or a big kitchen.
- Universal Black: Once again, we recommend Universal Black as the paint color for an accent wall or trim–but some teenage boys enjoy using this color as the base color for their walls.
