Create the illusion of space with bright colors

Build appetites in your kitchen with red

Warm up your home with deep tones during the winter

Cool off in the summer with colder colors

Use colors from your past

Use relaxing colors in relaxing rooms

Stay away from red if you have high blood pressure

Flatter yourself with a familiar color in the bathroom

Combine moods for an aggressive workout room

Concentrate in your home office with green

Inspire optimism with yellow

Don’t be fooled by purple, try blending it with more natural

colors like subtle yellows or greens

Blend brown for a natural look in your den

Black isn’t just for a teenager’s room or consider a black ceiling with a few stars

Use pink for tranquility in a meditation room

Bathroom fixtures are usually white for easy cleaning

Trust orange for a sick room or asthmatic child’s room

Use foyer blends to naturally combine interior and exterior paint

When all else fails, look to nature

Appeal to a highly educated crowd with complex colors
