Tips For Choosing Colors For Your Home

In terms of concept, aesthetic, style, design, resources, and budget, PPP understands pricing within means, and they know the importance of home decoration and upkeep. PrecisionPaintingPlus provides a few tips that may help you choose colors for your home.
· If a room has a dominant element to it like an Oriental rug or patterned upholstery, choose a paint color from that pattern. If you want a neutral color, match it with whatever neutral colors can be found in that pattern.
· Start painting the formal (living room, dining room, entryway) areas of the house first, and then pull a color from those areas for other areas of the house.
· With the ground below us and the sky above us, we are socialized to expect colors to rise from dark to light. As such, you should try to have the darkest colors on the floor, some sort of middle option in the middle, and the lightest colors on the ceiling. Or, if you inexplicably want to confuse your mind and overall perception of reality, do the opposite.
· If you are an especially predictable individual, look at the clothes you wear to get an idea of what color you would enjoy seeing in your house. Or, simply think or your favorite color.
· It is good to have a calming blue or green in an area where you intend to rest.
· There should be a little black in every room, because it clarifies everything else in the room.
· Contrast is important, both in terms of how different colors are and in what ratio a color shows up relative to another color. The ratio to keep in mind is 60 percent for a dominant color, 30 percent for a secondary color, and 10 percent for the accent color.
· Instead of fighting an unwinnable fight and painting a small room white to make it look big, embrace its smallness. Paint it a warm color and its coziness will embrace you as well.
· Finally, stay true to yourself. Make sure that whatever you choose is something you want.
