Think about your space. What mood are you hoping to create? A cozy living room, a vibrant bedroom, or a relaxing bathroom? Colors influence our moods! Warm colors like reds and oranges can feel lively and energized; cooler blues and greens create a calming atmosphere.

• Warm Colors: Evokes energy and excitement.
• Cool Colors: Promotes peace and tranquility.

Understanding Color Schemes: A Visual Guide

A color scheme is a selection of colors you decide to put together. There are lots of color schemes:

• Monochromatic: Using various shades of one color for harmony. (Think shades of blue in a bathroom).
• Analogous: Choosing colors next to each other on the color wheel. (Green, yellow-green, and yellow for a cheerful kitchen).
• Complementary: Two colors directly opposite on the color wheel creating a dramatic effect. (Blue and orange in a living room).

Which option makes your heart sing?

Color Psychology: Feeling the Colors

Each color can communicate various emotions and meanings. It is powerful.

• Red: Passionate, stimulating, energy-boosting.
• Yellow: Uplifting, cheerful, creative, happy
• Blue: Calm, relaxing, peacefulness
• Green: Renewal, calm, growth

Think about what color will make you feel better?
