Colour

How could colour make you feel?

Colour has the potential to become one of the most fundamental elements in your home. You can use colour to brighten up your mood, make your space look larger or smaller, or reflect more light. It can easily identify personal space for you and your family at home. For the interior, you could utilise colours already existing within your furnishings and accessories. This can make a great starting point for transforming your home.

Colour

Yellows

Yellows can create a happy, sunny feel and will make the room appear brighter. Yellow radiates warmth and is a reflective colour.

Blues

Blues can give a tranquil, serene feeling and sense of spaciousness. Blues are calming and help us think of our environment.

Reds

Reds can create a wonderfully warm, passionate feeling with a hint of excitement, and are renowned as a colour of strength and power. Red works wonders as a dramatic entrance colour or in a formal or contemporary dining or living area.

Neutrals

Whites and neutrals are ideal for creating a clean, classical backdrop and will allow you to add a splash of your favourite colour to any space. You have options of cooler or warmer whites and neutrals, such as greys, beiges, tans, creams and coffees.

Greens

Relaxing and restful to the eye, greens create a cool, fresh and calm atmosphere. Greens come in many shades and can be lime, mint, citrus, or teal.

Purples

Decorating with purple can create an illusion of grandeur. Lavender is lovely in a baby's nursery and you could easily try a rich eggplant for a feature wall in your living area.

Orange

Orange can elicit a strong response, be it negative or positive. It is seen as fun, gregarious, social, jovial and extroverted. Rusted oranges look fabulous when schemed with browns and they make perfect feature walls. 

Browns

Browns are associated with our earth, therefore, portray the sense of stability, security and reliability. They create a sense of nature and tranquillity. There are many shades of brown with subtle changing undertones. Have a look at stones, beiges, tans, chocolates and mocha shades for your decorating project.
