What color are you dreaming of?

RoomColor can’t exist without light. Before painting a room, consider these facts:

  • Do the windows in your room face north?
  • Are there trees outside the windows?
  • What time of day will you be using the room?
  • Will the space be used with natural light or artificial light?
  • What activity will you be doing in your newly painted space? Work? Relax? Cook? Entertain? Read? Play?
 

Creating Mood with Color

Color therapists maintain that a balance of colors throughout your home is important to minimize stress. You can exploit the emotional power of color to create an ambiance that suits the function of every room.
What ever paint colors you choose, you and your family should love them; there’s no point following time-honored decorating rules if you end up with a scheme you don’t like. And you shouldn’t pick the shades that fashion decrees if the result will be a room you can’t feel comfortable in. When you decorate your home, you are aiming to provide an environment that is comfortable for you and welcoming for your family and friends. Like the clothes you wear, your home is a visual expression of your character and personality: it should provide a setting rather than overwhelming you. Fashion moves fast, but rather than following it slavishly you can make the relentless procession of new trends work for you. There’s always a new range of paint colors or patterns from which you can choose elements to help create a style that’s all your own.
