Introduction

Color sets the mood in every space—from bold and energetic to soft and soothing. Choosing the right palette can transform a room’s entire vibe. Here’s how to select colors that work for your home and style.

1. Understanding Color Psychology

Different colors evoke different emotions. Blues and greens are calming—perfect for bedrooms. Yellows and oranges energize kitchens or workspaces. Use deep shades for drama in dining rooms or create a peaceful retreat with pastels in the bathroom.

2. Creating Flow with Color Schemes

Stick to a consistent color story throughout your home to create flow. Try the 60-30-10 rule: 60% dominant color, 30% secondary, and 10% accent. Don’t be afraid of bold choices—just repeat accent colors in art, cushions, or accessories for a pulled-together look.
