Maybe green with envy or preferably, tickled pink? Finding words to describe the way we feel evokes a veritable rainbow. So perhaps it won't come as a surprise to learn that the colors we choose to decorate our homes with may affect our mood.
Red is a color that intensifies feelings. It makes a bold statement, can be very passionate and, incidentally, is the color most chosen by extroverts! It can also make people feel hungrier so consider using it in the dining room - or the master bedroom!
Tranquil blue has a cooling effect because it reminds us of water and sky; just the thing to settle a lively toddler in his room at bedtime.
Are you a morning person? If not, then maybe you should consider a cheerful buttery yellow for your bedroom or kitchen.
Royal purple is rarely found in nature but it can be calming and enhance creativity. Consider employing the regal hue in an elegant sitting room or a creative room, such as an art studio.
Green - nature's color of choice. Fresh, calming and relaxing particularly in living rooms and bathrooms, and worth a thought for someone who is inclined to feel a little depressed.
Orange is a bold and exciting color. It demands attention but it can be warm and welcoming when mixed with a little brown. Consider using coppery brown accessories in a living room.
Colors can be used to great effect to change the tone and setting of any room in the home - from mellow yellows for a relaxed country kitchen to tranquil blues for your child's bedroom.
Whatever color you select, don't be afraid to take chances. Most people don't really want to spend their time living in a plain white, grey, or beige home but the key to being more daring is to concentrate on the accents. Contact Interiors Refined by Paula for a color consultation.
