Choosing the right paint color can be a daunting task. There are thousands of color options available from different paint manufacturing companies. Sherwin Williams, PPG, Benjamin Moore, Valspar, and many more brands vie for you to choose their paints. With a long list of proprietary paint names and color codes from each of the above companies, it’s easy to feel lost as you navigate the endless list of options.
The colors you choose for your home can set the mood. Some colors can provide excessive mental stimulation, others can provide a relaxing environment. Considering these factors is vital to the color choice process. How can you discern what colors are most appropriate for your project?
“So, where do I start?”
I’m so glad you asked. The first question I would ask yourself is what kind of color do you prefer? Do you like bold tones? Bold colors can evoke positive and negative reactions depending on the person. For example, bright reds and eye-catching oranges are bold and exciting colors.
Another option is neutral color tones. They are easy on the eyes and can engender a more relaxing environment. There are many timeless colors that you may look at initially and think are just plain white. Consider this, though; some whites may prove jarringly bright once the room is completed and take away from the overall “feel of the area.” A soft simplicity can go a long way when it comes to color choices.
