How The Color of a Room Affects Your Mood ?

Although not entirely understood, there’s a whole science dedicated to finding the connection between colors and our moods, and there seems to be a clear link between how we feel, react, and tend to think, and the colors that surround us at those times.
Here’s a quick guide to choosing these vital pieces of our décor, which have a greater impact on our thoughts and behavior than we might realise.

1. Neutral Colors

Neutral colors -black, white, brown and grey, are safe colors to use, that may go in and out of vogue, but can still be used owing to their flexibility to be used with any other bright colors to liven things up. Being neutral, they don’t have much of an impact on our moods. Black, however, should be used only as an accent and to add depth to a setting.

2. Purple Color

Purple can make a room look rich, classy and sophisticated. It is believed to bring out creativity and gives a luxurious feel to a room, while adding depth to the décor. Lighter versions of this color can be used in bedrooms as they tend to have a relaxing effect on the senses.

3. Red Color

4. Green Color

5. Blue Color :

Blue, a color that is universally considered to be calming and relaxing, is believed to bring down blood pressure and slow down the heart rate, and is best suited for bedrooms and bathrooms, places that need to be relaxing, by definition!In soft and warm shades, blue encourages relaxation.

You can use it in the living room, the kitchen and in other social areas of the house. Dark blue, however, can make you feel sad, and thus isn’t a great choice as the main color scheme.

7. Orange Color :

Orange is a color full of energy and makes us feel excited and enthusiastic, which is why it may not be a suitable color of choice for your living room or the bedroom. It’s great for an exercise room, however, and will evoke the right energy and mood that you would need for your workout.
