Interior House Painting – What Colour Shall I Paint this Room?

Choosing the colour or the colour scheme to surround your space, in the place you spend so much of you time, can be a quite a challenge. Colour plays a large part in our life at home because it sets the mood of a room. This affects how we feel as people, which affects the quality of our life.

Coordination
Remember, interior house painting is not just about what colour to paint the walls. All rooms in the house are filled with a variety of different inanimate characters like sofas, curtains, tables and chairs. As interior house designer Dai Linong states, “The various colours in a space come together to put up some kind of soap opera: walls play lead roles, furniture takes centre stage, lights usher late comers, and plants become props.”

The Science of Colour
In the relationship between the walls and the furniture, colour is the key to how the other ‘characters’ in the room are perceived. If you are decorating a large room, use brighter, warmer colour to bring the walls in; but paint a smaller room a cooler colour to give more space. Colour also establishes visual weight and balance. There is a basic science to what colours match well with others. Of course everybody has their own individual tastes, but why not dabble with a few tried and tested colour schemes to see how they might work for you?
