Color Decor For Your Apartment

Starting with the wall color and the color of the furniture to the color scheme of the decor – the possibilities are diverse and it is definitely worth thinking about which mood you want to create with colors for the room, because the color has a huge effect on the room climate.

Warm Colors Include Red Or Orange

Red stimulates, has a powerful and often slightly aggressive look. It is also intended to motivate physical work. It also stimulates the appetite and should therefore be used with caution in rooms such as the kitchen or dining room. Orange stands for pleasure, conviviality, enjoyment and energy and is therefore very well suited for rooms in which these attributes are important, i.e. dining room, meeting rooms, etc. It also belongs to the warm colors and exudes happiness. Yellow has a cheerful, mood-enhancing impact and puts you in a good mood. It has an invigorating and stimulating feel and promotes concentration. It is therefore particularly suitable for study and other rooms in which studying activities are carried out.

Cold Colors Are Blue, Green and Shades Of Purple

Blue looks rather cool and dignified and is considered a color of relaxation. That is why it is particularly suitable for the decoration of bedrooms or in the bathroom. Violet exudes calm and dignity and is a strongly meditative color. It is considered the color of inspiration, art and is a very extravagant color. Like blue, green has a relaxing and harmonious way. It stands for life and growth and has a motivating effect. Green is particularly suitable for living and working areas and ensures a good mood, especially as bright, fresh green.

Neutral Colors For The Apartment

Neutral colors are colors that do not appear in the color wheel and can be combined with all other colors. For example, white, black, gray or brown in different shades. They can be used on their own as a furnishing color, but can also serve as a basis for combining with a saturated color. The color wheel and the possible mixing ratios provide clues for the color decor of the room. What is shown schematically in the color wheel can actually be seen as a smooth transition. Wall colors are usually already mixed. In order to orientate yourself, however, many manufacturers offer colors that show possible mixing ratios. Depending on the mixing ratio, there is a different shade of color. Example: Green is not always green. Blue-green is mixed differently than yellow-green and has a different effect.

The following applies to wall paints: the addition of white makes a color lighter and reduces the saturation. This creates a pastel color. After the decision on the right colors for the home has been made, it is important to find the right place for the color accents. For that there are different possibilities.

• The room remains white / neutral, furniture is colored
• A single wall is designed in color as an accent
• All walls are designed in color: Furniture remains neutral and the wall color is taken up in the design
• Colorful walls – this must be taken into account when dividing up

If you have chosen colored walls, make sure that you can significantly influence the impression, especially of the size, of a room with the color scheme.
