Home remodeling: the best, and worst, colors to paint the interior of a house:
1.Red
Red is a color that simulates and is very powerful. It creates the feeling of warmth, aggression, love and luxury. It may be the color of romance but don’t ever think of painting your bedroom or perhaps any room in the house in full red because a lot of cases implies that people regret this act. Having a red room creates an overwhelming atmosphere. However if you would like to go for all red, it is suggested that you use different shades; color wheel is your buddy, choose the red family. For living room, burgundy and maroon and other deep subtle shades of red are ideal. Red, at its worst is overdramatic – a powerful aggressive color.
2. Blue
The best color for bedroom for it give serenity and comfort. It works in any room making over-bright colored rooms settling. It is the color of loyalty, harmony, peace and at its worst, it is a cold color.
3. Yellow
Yellow is a stimulating and cheerful color which is perfect for kitchens. It invites the sun in the kitchen and lightens dark room. However it is a color that can irritate people. Do not paint the baby’s and the children room yellow for it disrupts
4. Green
It is a nature color that is why it is refreshing to the eyes. It works just about in any room; it can make dim rooms a little bit vibrant. Just don’t go too much dark though, use different shades.
5. White
The safest and the most cleanest look you can get in any room. It suits almost every room however it’s too plain and dull.
6. Black
The color of formality, void yet it shows dust in your walls. This color is unadvisable for any room repainting if black is not your kind of interest in style.
