Color Psychology in Home Decor

Colors profoundly affect mood and energy. Choose strategically for spaces that feel exactly right.

Warm vs Cool

Warm colors (red, orange, yellow) energize. Cool colors (blue, green, purple) calm and relax.

Room by Room

Living Rooms

Warm neutrals, soft grays, or muted blues create welcoming social spaces.

Bedrooms

Blues, greens, and lavenders promote relaxation and better sleep quality.

Home Office

Greens boost focus. Blues enhance productivity. Avoid red (too stimulating).

Kitchen

Whites feel clean. Warm yellows stimulate appetite. Grays are modern and versatile.

Color Combinations

Monochromatic (one color, varied shades), analogous (neighboring colors), or complementary (opposite colors).
