Colour Therapy in the Home
Colour in the home plays a central role in establishing the quality for light in our living environment. With a few tricks it is not only possible to transform the ambiance of a room can also visually alter the dimensions.
Below are a few examples:
- Lower high ceiling by using a dark colour
- Using the same colour hue for both ceilings and walls will make a room look bigger
- Widen the look of narrow rooms by painting the short end walls a dark colour and the two adjoining walls a lighter shade
- Warm up cold rooms by using pinks, coral, red or sunshine yellow
- Hot rooms that let direct sunlight in can be cooled down with light blues, greens and whites
- Make big rooms cosier by painting the walls and ceilings with dark warm colours
- Small rooms look bigger if painted light shades
- To lengthen a short hallway use cream, pale lilac or light blue on the far wall
- Using different shades and tones of the same colour in a room can make it look very stylish. Consider for instance using turquoise blue with navy or violet teamed with lilac. Choose similar colour vases and cushions to add extra class.
