Choosing Colours

Colours speak all languages

— Joseph Addison

Getting Started…

Choosing the best colour for your space can impact everything from mood, consistency to aesthetic. Start by asking yourself how you’d like to feel in the space, along with the kind of aesthetic you’re going for. From here, begin choosing colours that complement your vision.

Colour & Mood.

Colours have the power to invoke more than just vibrancy, but emotion. Knowing this can help you decide how to paint your space. We’ve outlined a few colours, along with their emotional impact.

  1. Peace & Calm: Anything from grey, pastel pink, green, tan to white will bring calm into your home.

  2. Power & Passion: Red is most commonly associated with passion and power. Using this colour in a kitchen or dining room can help to bring social spaces to life.

  3. Happiness: Yellow, pink, and peach can all promote feelings of happiness when used in a space. The brighter and lighter the colour, the more optimistic you’ll feel.

  4. Cleanliness: White walls in any space can help promote feelings of cleanliness. This is great for defining a space, along with additional accent colours.

  5. Energy & Innovation: Hoping to give your home office a jolt of energy to keep you motivated? Try using orange to invoke feelings of innovation. If the colour seems overbearing, try painting a single accent wall instead.
