A color for each room

Not all spaces of the house demanding the same tones. These are some suggestions to achieve harmony in our home:

Bedroom: the color you choose should be cold because they help to relax and promote a positive rest. The indigo can be a good choice, although pale green balancing our environment if we mix it with warm tones.

Nursery: Here we can use the pastel and stronger colors used together of different decorative elements. If the child is still a baby we opt for the mild pink or blue.

Receiver: this room has to be friendly; we can use the color range that quite warm and friendly, so we can paint it in golden peach tone or pink coral. Being the first room of the house we get that radiates energy.

For style houses romantic, shades moving between the pastels, soft, delicate and lights. The colors most fun, fresh and alive are reserved for dynamic and juveniles houses.

The color and lights

Not all households have the same characteristics nor are equally bright. The painting of our walls and ceilings help to create more livable environments and transform the optically size.

A corridor gives the effect of major width if it is painted in light colors such as white, ocher or ivory. The too high Ceiling will feel lower if painted with dark or intense colors. Conversely, if you want it to achieve visually raise the ceiling, you have to paint it with the same wall’s color.

The small rooms with little daylight will win if we turn to clear and warm. If our Banquet are too square and want to create the sensation of lengthening, we have to paint darker two walls that are opposite each other. We will obtain surprising results.

What paint should we use?

The plastic paint is one of the most recommended by your value for money. It also allows washed with water and retains color well. You can see it in finished matte, glossy or satin.

If we decided on the gotele or droplet painting, we use tempera. It has the disadvantage that cannot be washed, despite stain easily. The biggest advantage that has is its price, one of the most affordable in terms of paintings concerns.

Slightly more expensive are the synthetic but its offer many advantages. They are very durable and impermeable, so that we can use for any room in the house, including bathroom, kitchen and one outside. Its finish is brighter and stronger than the rest.

For places that have risk of getting wet we can use paintings moisture, you can find them in white and in colors.

For Woods, the varnish paint is more widespread. It is colorless and gives the surface brightness where it was applicable. It’s stands to extreme temperatures better than the rest paint, but is highly toxic and flammable.

Analyze our tastes and our needs will become a chore when painting our house. If we choose either the type or colors get really rewarding results.
