So, where does one start when deciding what color to use in a space?

Its not as difficult as you might think. You can use a color in a piece of artwork you love, or your cultural influences. Or there just may be a color that seems to speak to you saying, ” I need to be on the walls of a room in this house”! Did you know that a mood can be set with colors…like do you want the room to be romantic and cozy, sunny and bright, breezy and fun? Considering the activity in a room, if you want to create a space with loads of energy like a kitchen or family room or a more relaxing atmosphere like a bedroom, those moods can be set with color.
Visualizing the color on a wall can be very challenging. Actually as I am told by many customers, that simply selecting a paint color is one of the scariest things to try to do. It is unfortunate because adding paint color to a room is still the cheapest and quickest way to hide a multitude of mistakes or challenges. Here are a few things that the right paint color in a room can do:
- If you don’t have a budget to furnish a room, color on the walls can help the room not to look so empty. It can add warmth and a sense of coziness.
- If your budget does not allow you to replace an old worn piece of furniture such as a sofa, a paint color that is similar to it can help blend it into the wall and not make it so noticeable.
- If you are thinking about remodeling a bathroom and your budget does not allow for replacing all the tile, a paint color that coordinates with the tile color will treat it as less important in the room.
