“The power of colour influences our everyday wellbeing.” - Andrea Leiper

Discover the transformative power of colour in creating a unique and beautiful home! 🎨 ✨

Colour is a huge topic I cover in my ‘Wellbeing Interior Design Workshop’ it is one of the favourite modules that my students always love and can’t wait to get stuck into. There are always so many questions about colour when it comes to our personal preferences and our interior choices. We cover so much but there is always more to learn.

Colour is an essential element in interior design that has the ability to completely change the look and feel of a space. It has the power to evoke emotions, set moods, and express personal style.

8 Reasons the power of colour

Here's why colour is so essential in creating a home that is truly one-of-a-kind:

1.Personal Expression: Colour allows you to express your unique personality and create a space that reflects who you are. Whether you prefer bold and vibrant hues or serene and calming tones, colour choices can convey your individuality and make your home a true reflection of your style.

2. Mood Enhancement: Different colours have the power to influence our moods and emotions. Warm tones like red and orange can create a cozy and energetic atmosphere, while cool blues and greens can evoke a sense of calmness and relaxation. By strategically selecting colours, you can shape the ambiance of each room to suit its purpose.

3. Visual Interest: Colours add visual interest and depth to a space. They can be used to highlight architectural features, create focal points, or define different areas within an open floor plan. Whether through accent walls, vibrant accessories, or creative colour combinations, colours bring life and personality to your home.

4. Enhancing Space: The right choice of colours can visually enhance the perception of space. Lighter and cooler shades can make a room feel more spacious and airy, while darker hues can add intimacy and cosiness. Through colour, you can manipulate the perceived size and proportions of your rooms.

5. Creating Cohesion: Colour plays a crucial role in tying a home's design together. By establishing a colour scheme or palette, you can create a cohesive and harmonious flow throughout your space. Consistency in colour choices can unify different rooms and create a sense of continuity, resulting in a visually appealing and well-designed home.
