USING COLOURS TO CREATE THE VIBES YOU DESIRE AT HOME
Playing with colours to bring out the personality of the home and allow our homeowners’ personality to shine through are one of those things that we do in our interior design process. After deciding on the layout of the home, we will focus on the colour schemes with our homeowners to set the tone of the home and subsequent furnishing.
The colour scheme is an arrangement or combination of colours. In deciding the colour scheme, we are able to set the mood of the house, giving it a more cohesive look and adding visual interest. We choose colours based on the preferences and personalities of our homeowners. Thereafter, we make use of colour theory to make sure the colours blend together well.
Colour also has the ability to evoke emotions and change the mood of people. Warm colours such as orange give off a more heartwarming feeling whereas cooler tones like blue give off a more relaxed and cosy look.
In the example below, we used the same home layout and played around with the colour scheme to completely transform the space.
Given the same layout, two separate colour schemes was given to this home based on the desired design theme. (Have fun with the white slider to see the difference!)
