Is your room looking too boring? Or you just moved into a new space and you don’t like the color of the paint? Here are tips compiled by Lamudi Ghana to keep help you select the best paint color for the room, which will not only make it nicer but reflect the exciting person that you are:
- You can make your room look beautiful by yourself. The trick is to start small; buy all the colors of paints that you would like to use for the room. Test them on small portions of the wall and assess your work afterwards. This should help you choose the most preferred color
- One important question to ask yourself before selecting a paint color is the kind of mood you would like to feel when you enter the room. Is it a feeling of excitement? Then yellow should be an option. If it is a calm feeling, then choose blue or white. Let your mood help you select a color. Always remember to test the color before making the final decision. Some colors like deep hues of red and yellow can create feelings of restlessness especially among children.
- Do you have large windows, which imply very bright rooms? Then dark colours can be considered. At the same time, deeper hues of colors can be used if there is a large mirror reflecting lights.
- Be creative with colors. Avoid the one-color scheme and choose a variety of colors. Different shades of a particular color can also be used. Featured wall, where the focus is designing just a side of the wall, can be an option.
- Painting your room can cause a lot of mess. It is a skill which needs to be developed. If you lack the creative juices, do not waste so much time deciding and making a mess of the room. Employ the services of an interior designer, they tend to have so many great ideas that can transform your room but of course that comes at cost.
