Choosing the right paint color in interior design or decorating may seem like a difficult decision. The difficulty for most usually has to do with where to start.
While it would be nice to just hire a whole team of painters and decorators and do it all at once, for most of us it’s just not practical. Not to worry, help is here.
When deciding where to start in selecting a paint color, fabric color or any other interior decorating feature, we have developed a few key points to review that will help guide you to your decision.
Personal Style – A home is a refuge, a personal space that you should feel comfortable in and it should be decorated to match your personal style and not someone else.
But what is your personal style. What types of colors and patterns make you feel comfortable, energetic, romantic, calm and peaceful. A good place to look is in your wardrobe or closet. Look at the colors and textures of the clothes you wear. Most people purchase clothes because they like them and look good in them. Your selection of colors and decorating should be with the same idea in mind.
