COLOURS AROUND YOU

It is a well known fact that lighter and colder colours create a psychological effect of space. Thus, by choosing a colour correctly, smaller rooms can appear much wider and spacious.

On the other hand, warm and strong colours make a space appear smaller, but at the same time bring in intimacy, optimism, make it livelier and warmer. Cold colours and those of darker shades make a space look colder, fresher, more agreeable to be in.

Warm colours increase the feeling of warmth and protectedness. It is a common truth that people who spend time in rooms painted in strong colours have a subjective feeling of +3°C.

Your home is the place where the most important things in your life happen, in general but also in the course of your everyday desired rhythm. Therefore kitchen, dining room, children’s rooms and studies are perfect for warmer colours. Above all, these are the places for joy, pleasure in life, energy.

Living rooms and bedrooms could be, if painted in colder and deeper colours, ideal for relaxation, rest but also contemplation.
Appartments with less natural ligh, turned towards north, are ideal for brighter and stronger colours. Spacious and well-lit appartments are ideal for experimenting with somewhat colder and subdued colours.

Rooms and spaces that one moves through should be improved with brighter colours, and central rooms are well-suited to play with darker colours.
