We all know that colours have the power to affect moods so why not adapt the principles of colour psychology when purchasing blinds. Interior designers and decorators understand how colour, whether it be for paint, decor and window furnishings within the home, can affect feelings, emotions and moods.
Black - Great for drawing attention to a feature of the room and can be used as a fantastic contrast to bold colours or white.
White - Creates a pure, serene and fresh feel to a room.
Brown - Adds warmth and depth to a room by providing a reassuring, stable and safe vibe.
Red - Vibrant and passionate, red has been known to raise the heart rate and also enhance the appetite making it ideal for dining rooms or restaurants.
Grey - Provides a level of elegance and formality creating a calm and subtle ambience.
Purple - has a mysterious depth that can be calming and tranquil, ideal for cooler areas such as bathrooms and bedrooms.
Green - Natural and easy on the eye, green adds depth and complexity to a room.
Blue - For rooms that may be subject to high levels of heat, blue will give a false notion that we feel cooler. Lighter shades also help make a small room look larger.
Orange - Energetic, vibrant and emotionally stimulating, orange is a great choice for children’s bedrooms or play areas.
Yellow - Pale yellows add a glimmer of warmth and sunshine to a room where an intense, deep yellow can be a bold statement though should be used sparingly as it has the psychological effect of anger.
Pink - A sweet and soothing colour pink is great for girls rooms, bathrooms or guest bedrooms as it is comforting and fresh.
