Inspired Space with Color

Room colors have a big impact on space. Different shades can say different things about you, and various hues can affect us in various ways. Here are some tips to help you select the right shades for your spaces.

WHAT THE COLORS SAY

On the rainbow spectrum, the differences in hues is huge. You probably have a favorite and a least favorite color. Use your intuition to guide you towards the side of the spectrum you favor and consider how these colors can make you and the space feel.

• Blue can evoke serenity and calmness. Like the seas or a clear sky, blues work well with many other colors. Hues of blue can make a space feel larger.
• Green comes in many different shades, and can make a space feel private or refreshed, depending on the hue. Shades of green can work well together, and the color can add an earthy feel.
• Red can create strong reactions if the wrong shade is picked. Consider red for accessories or an accent wall.
• Yellow is another color that can bring forth a variety of reactions. Yellow can brighten a room or soften it depending on the shade. Bright yellow works for kitchens, but consider a buttery yellow for bedrooms.
• Brown is another earthy color that can make a space feel warm and welcoming. Be sure to use complementary colors to avoid making a room seem too dark.

COLOR TIPS

Here are a few other tips to help you color your space:

• Use no more than three colors in one space
• Use lighter shades to balance darker ones
• Think about classic color combos like blue and yellow or black and white
• Remember white! White can be elegant, can brighten spaces, and has different shades to work with any color combo
