When choosing the right color for your home, you should ask yourself some questions first:
What’s the room orientation?
The light, whether natural or artificial, influences the look of any color. If the room faces north, you should chose warm colors to reduce coldness. If the room faces south, interior colors will have warm reflexion, which allows you to use a “colder” color pattern. Eastern or western illumination gives a mild red note to everything.
Should a room size be visually corrected?
Light and cold colors make the walls and furniture look more distant, so we use these colors to visually increase the room dimensions. Dark and warm colors create a welcome feeling but also reduce the room dimensions; therefore, such colors should be reserved for large spaces.
What is the purpose of a room?
Neutral or pastel colors are the most appropriate for a bedroom or a living room; light shades of blue or green can freshen up a bathroom; red or purple details in the kitchen inspire creativity.
