What your colour scheme says about you

Posted by in Home Improvement

When you are choosing your colour scheme for your home you may be drawn to certain colour schemes or shades but do you realise that there is actually complex psychology behind your choices. Lets see what those choices say about you!

Blue – supposedly this is the colour that is linked to intellect and most people find this colour to be calming and soothing. It’s the ideal shade for a home office as blue tones aid concentration and help to keep you focused.

Yellow – this is a bold confident colour that is said to improve self-esteem and lift moods so in choosing this colour you are someone who takes control of their mood and feelings in a positive manner.

Red – this is a powerful colour that can actually have a physical effect on the body, such as raising your pulse rate! It’s a stimulating colour and usually chosen by people who don’t like the humdrum of normal life and lust for more zest in their life.  Black – this shade is associated with sophistication and elegance. Used in excess it can be over-powering, however, teamed with bright white it can symbolise efficiency and maturity. It’s shows a person who likes to be organised and effective in their day to day life.
