Hanging Scroll
Purpose-Driven Home Decorating Using Color
The single most successful advertising campaign of all time partly relied on color. Philip Morris at that time had a problem with Marlboro, a cigarette brand for women. Philip Morris turned the issue over to motivation research experts who decided that the cigarette packaging should have a splash of red. The rest is history.
If any, this confirms what practically everyone knows about color: it has a distinct effect on man, and helps man shape his opinions of things. This means that the majority of people who want to take on a DIY project can achieve their purpose in any room as long as he or she has the know-how.
Colors are either cool or warm.
Blues create a cool feel. Reds and yellows are warm. Reds excite; they make one like to move around. Blues have the capacity to create a relaxed feeling. Many individuals work well when engulfed by blue shades, although too much blue can be overbearing. Color can have the effect of making a room seem cold, despite the temperature.
Color preference.
Red is the most popular color. Women and girls love colors like magenta or purplish red. Men and boys prefer orange-red. Blue comes in next. Men like more robust shades, while women like turquoise or aqua. Generally, large areas of soft or delicate colors with small spots of brilliant accents appeal to people. That explains why pristine beach scenes always appeal to people.
Complementary pairs form the ideal color combination.
For instance, blue and orange have the same waves as white light and are considered to be a balance of warm and cool and thus do not strain the eyes. Have one of the colors light, the other dark – they work best that way. Try to avoid saturated hues – they can sometimes be unpleasant.
Each hue has a mate and a family.
The complementary hue is the mate. The shades, tints, and tones resulting from the marrying of the complementary hues are the family. For walls, colors like white or gray mixed with green-blue is a great choice. For example, you might consider a vermilion floral wall art. Beige or brown furniture looks best with this color palette. Even if you put in a wall grill decor, it’d still look good.
Let the room’s purpose decide its color.
Delicate tints and tones that bring about a soft and soothing feeling are perfect for the bedroom. Choose contrasting colors and color accents for the living room for something more dramatic. For the baby’s room, have saturated bright colors—babies see only brilliant light. You might have a pair of vermilion floral wall decorations here to pull together your living room and baby’s room.
The room’s orientation can determine its color.
Do not use colors like peach or yellow if the room has windows that face the east. Don’t use blue, if the room has only a window facing north. Generally, a room with poor light should take a light color; otherwise, it can take a deep color. Most homeowners paint their ceilings white so that the ceiling reflects light into the room. Keep in mind that if you cannot alter your wall color, you can invariably add individuality and color with the addition of a beautiful fish metal art, traditional painting, wall tapestries or any other wall accent from your favorite wall decor site or store.
