Colour plays a big role in your home and how it will affect your mood. Before choosing a colour, it is good to know how you will be using the space and how you want to feel when you’re in it. Different colours can bring out certain emotions that we’ll cover in this post.
If you are looking to feel calm, relaxed and at peace you might gravitate towards light to mid tone hues with a cool undertone. In the bedroom above, Voyage PPU13-07 is a balanced muted blue. If you are going for a serene like vibe, this colour and similar colours will be the ideal choice.
This bedroom feels like a soothing sanctuary. The warmth of Canyon Dusk S210-4 and Almond Wisp PPU5-12 generate enthusiasm and positivity. A black bold accent wall in Broadway PPU18-20 elevates the room with a note of drama.
When used well, red can trigger the best feelings of power, strength and energy. A red hue in a dining room is the perfect area to lift your mood. Red Pepper PPU2-02 is a beautiful shade of burnt red that is bold and adventurous.
If you prefer a relaxed and natural setting in your dining space, you may consider a soothing green like Bitter Sage N390-4. Muted green can enhance feelings of joy and inner peace.
Energize your laundry room with a burst of optimistic colour. Surfboard Yellow P280-4 is a bright sunny day colour that feels like a wave of cheerfulness.
If you’re looking for more of a relaxed laundry room atmosphere opt for a serene mood with Light Drizzle N480-1, its subtle blue grey tone will help soothe you.
Lastly is considering the mood you want upon entering your home. If you are looking for clean, simple and refreshing statement, try a warm white like Polar Bear 75. Any warm or cool white will give off a sense of calmness and comfort. A touch of black accents will help ground and add elegance to the space.
