Color Therapy

Ever stared at the walls of your room and felt gloomy? It’s probably because of the choice of color. While a lot of people may not know it, colors do influence our mood to a great extent. It is said that color is the cheapest form of therapy. It can lighten up your mood and help you relieve stress, resulting in a holistic healing experience. This is exactly why we don’t want you to go with just any colour, and fully enjoy the privilege of choosing what you want for a specific space. Every colour speaks for itself and the colours you add to your walls reflect your personality, creativity and imagination. While some colors connect with our minds, others connect with our souls.

Choosing the right colour

Wondering how to choose the right colour for every room? Well, it all depends on the mood of the room as well as the function that it serves. For instance, if the room is cold, try using warmer tones like yellow and red. As far as warmer rooms are considered, go for cool tones like sky blue and light green. Colors should also be chosen depending on the activity level of each room. Let’s say you are picking colours for your bedroom and kitchen. The color palette for your bedroom should be more serene and calm with the balanced integration of cool colours like green and blue. On the other hand, if you are choosing a palette for your kitchen or dining area, it is better to go with warm tones like yellow and orange.
