50 Shades of Your Room: How to Paint a Space Based on Mood

Think of your walls as a blank canvas. The color of your walls can be used to convey a certain mood for those who occupy the space.

True blue

The color blue signifies peace and tranquility. Adding blue to your walls is a great way to bring a sense of calmness to any space. Office spaces where anxiety and stress can build are a perfect place to add a touch of blue.

Tip: Rather than painting a whole room, Try an accent wall. These walls add a nice splash of color to any room.

Red red room

The color red is a very intense color. If you’re looking to send a shockwave of energy into your room, red is the color for you. The living room is a great space to utilize red because this space is the main gathering area of the home and red promotes free flowing conversation.

Green is good

The color green, much like it’s close counterpart blue, is a serene color. Green is a great color for any room of the house especially the bedroom, since it promotes rest. Heavy traffic areas of the house, like hallways, can be a great place to incorporate green to lessen the busyness of the space.

Tip: Experiment with both light and dark shades of different colors to find the right vibe for each room.

Play with purple

Looking to make your room feel more lavish without spending a fortune? Try painting the walls purple! Deep purples like plum can add a rich and luxurious feel to the atmosphere of the room, while lighter shades like lilac encourage tranquility.

Tip: When picking out paint for the walls, keep in mind that natural light shows the truest color.
