If you are looking for a peaceful monochromatic look (one color) try lighter intensity, meaning More White in the same color, for a spicy look, try colors on the opposite side of the color wheel such as a red, or orange. You can try different room colors out on the web at Sherwin Williams site or hgtv site. They are fun, easy and free. The most important advice is for you to find a color combo that you like! Lots of people are afraid they will make a mistake and they back away from color- Go for it! If you like it, it will work!

The use of color is also something very personal. It stimulates our senses, power our mood, and helps create a particular ambiance. How we respond to an individual color depends on our nature, extroverts tend to feel happy with bold colors, while introverts prefer more passive colors.

Through using specific combinations of color, combined with a careful consideration of simple color schemes is often the most effective.

Try not to use more than one or two principal colors in a room, as well as a contrasting or balancing tone. The best way to choose a background color for the room is to trial with a palette of different shades and tones, in combination with the color and textures of the furniture and materials. Remember the general color schemes of a home have to be in agreement. The walls define the space in a room, while the colors, to a large degree, define the mood.

Colored light, furnishing materials, and structural proportions, we can create a home that is welcoming, helpful, and comfortable. Walls are similar to background music: each color tone is like a musical note can create a pleasant-sounding harmony while others grate with each other.

The color with which we surround ourselves will without doubt have an effect on us, and so it is important to feel comfortable with our choice. A discussion with a professional color consultant can help to decide individual needs and select appropriate color.

Colors can be divided into three main groups: those that stimulate and uplift, those that relax and calm, and those that provide harmony or balance. So, having taken a number of things into thought when decorating a room, such as the size of the space, the amount of light, the function if the room, and the style and mood we wish to create, we finally, and most importantly, need to consider the needs of the people who use it.

For drama, RED tones, for a softer touch, pink is awesome. For a relaxing tone, try a soft sunny yellow.

Small amounts of orange (throw pillows, art, silk flowers) will warm it up, and then incorporate neutrals such as khaki, tan, and white (window treatments, more pillows, bedding if its a bedroom, throw rugs).
