Paint a simple mural.
Dark green mountains jutting into a light blue sky.
Paint the tops white for the snow cap effect.
Looks good in my bathroom.

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.

I just painted my Mum's bathroom white...it cleans well and can easily be repainted...I also redid the trim around the floors and ceiling and put some acoustic tile on the ceiling to give it a new look. A couple nice pictures and a new shower curtain made it look quite smart.

The color of the room should match its pupose. Strong, "flavorful" colors in the kitchen. Relaxing colors in the bedroom. Complex colors in the livingroom. And finally, cool, clean colors in the bathroom. Try light shades of blue, green, violet or white and avoid yellow and brown(don't ask! lol!)

I, too like the new "cool" colors of aqua and pale blues with white fixtures and trim. I also LOVE the spa-like feel that comes from warm mossy-greens. To me both palattes are a great compliment to white. (or visa versa)

i love your silvery/gray theory; it is going to seem state-of-the-artwork and funky. attempt to stumble on a warmth gray with brown undertones however, so it gained't seem as if a cold battleship coloration.A medium color of teal might want to seem outstanding too with white accents in towels and rugs, etc. As for wallpaper, until eventually you discover one you won't be able to stay without (and stripes are easy to paint) i does no longer difficulty. it truly is a mess to positioned up or perhaps more effective to take down. sturdy success.
