Recently many clients have asked me for help with color. It seems that with the burst of sunlight there has been a new found enthusiasm for color. People innately understand that the feel of their home can radically be changed by the color on the walls. During the summer season people often opt for cheerful colors that will uplift the spirit. The question most have is how to pick the perfect color. Let’s take a look…
Create your happy place by going to your happy place. That is, think about the spaces and places in your life that have made or currently make your heart sing and your spirit soar. Maybe it was a blissful trip to Bermuda where you loved the pink painted houses and your fond memories make you giggle. Or, perhaps it was the orange leather chair in the ski chalet you would visit as a child that brings a warm glow to your soul. Remember those times, places and spaces and incorporate those colors in your current space to make it feel great!
Before you begin to decorate a room it is important to determine its function. Color plays a key role in setting the mood or tone. So make sure the color is in alignment with your objective for the space.
I often have people ask me to choose colors over the phone or online. This can be challenging without having a sense of the lighting. I always ask to see pictures of the space so that I understand how the room is lit. A little trick is to use cooler colors in rooms without natural light from windows and use warmer tones in brighter spaces.
Color plays an important role in creating home, health and happiness. These three tips can help you choose the color that best supports you.
