Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

Well I have just finished painting my parents house so I am to say updated with the in style colors for this summer. It is degraded from really dark pink (Deep Carnation is the professional name) to the light Violet. There is something special about those colors that they are the last to be recognized by a human eye, so they are comfortable for the sight.
As for your home, I think you have two choices to go:
1.If you are looking for something wild, fun and color full I think you have to go for the orange, it is a daring color but it matches the red and green furniture really good.
2.If you are looking for something more calm and peaceful I think you should go for the Golden Shaded colors, they are simple and luxurious at the same time.

A helpful tip for you, don't paint all the walls with the same colors. Pick a different degree for each wall. You can also choose one wall to color it with a wild degree and the others with a simpler one.

And what ever you pick just Enjoy It!!

Answer 3

You can always paint the ceiling in the same color or perhaps a shade lighter. I ran across a paint tip the other day that said if you get white paint for the ceiling, pour a few drops of the wall paint into it and mix it well. It will be the same tint, just lighter. :)

Answer 4

I'm not a decorator or anything but I do know that if you go onto the Dulux website, you can play around with colours. It does sound like you should paint your walls white, to make the red and green stand out.

Answer 5

Try a darker more caramel color. It's the same family as what you have now, but you'd be surprised with the difference. I did it in our living room and it's been that way for three or four years. EVERYONE that comes to my house asks me what color it is.

Answer 6

Paint in a neutral color if it is a rental. It will show the property better. Eggshell, etc..

Answer 7

I think the gold color mentioned in the first answer would be very pretty.

Answer 8

A nice rich color of gold might be nice.
