Effect of colors
Did you know that the color blue gives you the impression that a space is larger than it actually is in reality?
It’s not the only case when colors help you juggle with their special effects.
Let’s look at some of the most important issues regarding the role of chromatic combinations in the creation of a pleasant and relaxed ambiance.
Suppose we have two rooms in one apartment. The two rooms are identical in size, but we paint the walls in two different colors: dark yellow in the first room and light blue in the other. The room painted in light blue will visually seem larger that the one painted in dark yellow that will seem a bit claustrophobic. In other words, colors play tricks on your vision and mind.
We often underestimate the importance of color in our life, thus we make serious mistakes that affect us visually and mentally. Imagine what it would be like living in a house that was painted black? You can’t live in a house with black painted walls and tell your grandchildren stories! It is one or the other.
Of course, that was an exaggerated example but this is serious. Every color has certain significance. Red-passion, envy ,blue-peace, tranquility, space; white-freedom, purity ; orange and yellow-pleasure ,happiness, a state of comfort and radiance; pink-love, romance; and so on.
We can play around with these significations and use them to create pleasant spaces in our homes that will truly make them a place where we can retreat after a long day and feel like kings and queens in the space we shaped to our own liking.
Here’s a curious fact: the color white is the symbol of weddings in our culture, while in Chinese culture, white is worn at funerals. It is possible that they have a different perspective upon death than we do.
In addition, colors influence sunlight and heat. While black attracts sunlight and heat, white and other light colors reflect it. That's why it is indicated that we wear light-colored
