Living rooms are often a gathering place that revolves around conversation and other activities. To pick this lively mood, look back to the warm colors such as reds and yellows. A very popular combination now is taking a darker shade of red and letting furniture accent the walls by having them be a neutral color such as brown.
Offices are a place to concentrate and focus on the materials you need to complete. As we stated before, green is a good color to keep a peace setting and help maintain concentration. Another way to go would be the modern sophisticated look by blending white, gray, and black together through paint and furniture. For this look, consider buying furniture that has a steal accent. This will create the firm professional business look you are striving to obtain ("Using Color Psychology to Create an Emotionally Healthy Home").
A final tip is to keep in mind that the color affects not only emotions but also how large the room appears. Darker colors make the room feel smaller because its darkness seemingly draws things together. On the contrary, lighter colors brighten up a room making it feel more spacious. This rule does not only affects walls but also ceilings. The reason people typically leave their ceilings white is to make the ceiling appear taller ("Room Color and How It Affects Your Mood").
We hope that this advice brings excitement, relaxation, concentration, and energy wherever you need it. Good luck coming up with color combinations that best suit you! Have fun and paint the mood!
