Your body and your mind both have reactions to seeing colors. Brighter colors usually stimulate your brain and energize you, potentially even making you feel a little anxious. When painting rooms in your home, you want to think about how you want to feel when you’re in the room. Flat paint has a non reflective finish and Matte paint is low luster. Painters in Perth usually offers one or the other. For a softer look, choose eggshell and Satin is slightly shinier. If relaxation is your goal, there are certain colors to consider.
Blue
Blue is a classic color that many turn to when decorating their homes. There’s a good reason for that—blue is quite a soothing color and can help to calm a busy mind. It’s an ideal color to use in a bedroom since it can actually help you sleep. As for which shades to stick to, think very soft, neutral tones since bright colors might be too stimulating.
Violet
Violet signifies strength, peace and wisdom. It has the capabity to bring balance and make you feel inner peace. Many people consider decorating their space with violet to create a peaceful environment. Also it is said to be good for bone growth, maintaining the potassium and sodium balance of the body.
Pink
Pink is another color that helps calm and bring peace into a room. Although pink is considered a feminine color that’s best in a baby girl’s nursery, the right tones of pink can look beautiful in just about any room.
Green
Green is quite soothing and comforting. This is the color we associate with nature and the outdoors. Green is present in most of the spaces we visit when we want to feel relaxed; parks, our backyards, and the quiet forest. Pretty much any shade of green will leave you feeling calm, but the lighter shades will have you feeling more chilled out than brighter versions.
Gray
Many of us think of grey as a dull, boring and a bit depressing color. But the reality is gray has a very soothing and cooling presence. Gray, when paired with blue or white elements, can create a relaxing atmosphere.
White
White is an interesting one since subtle differences in the shade can create very different reactions in people. If you go too dull, it might be a bit of a downer. If you go too bright, it can seem too clinical and actually stress you out a bit. The key to keeping things calming with white is to stick to warmer, creamy versions.
Yellow
If you want to jump start your day on an energetic note, keep a significant 'yellow thing' in a prominent place at home. Or even better paint your kitchen yellow because a recent research found out that people in the yellow room appeared be more active and conscious then people in other room.
