KNOW YOUR COLORS (part 2)

Color is a powerful but intensely personal factor that can bring forth the best in your natural temperament – or not. When you decorate your room it is best to get to know more about colors. It is important to have much knowledge as possible, for you to have a better insight into how you relate with colors.

First, get to know the color wheel, his is the traditional device for presenting the full range of colors in the spectrum and demonstrating their relationship with one another. The wheel is broken up into three basic color types primary, secondary and tertiary. The primary colors are the only ones that cannot be made by the mixing of other colors and create a foundation of all - theory. They are the red, yellow and blue.

Secondary colors are derived from mixing together equal amounts of two primary colors. Tertiary colors fall between the primary and secondary colors.

The color wheel also offers a useful demonstration of other two kinds of color relationship: complementary and harmonies.

Today’s vast palette of colors is new and exciting; any color is at our fingertips. When we choose our color scheme it is vital to get the whole family’s opinion, especially when it comes to their private rooms. Choice of color is intensely personal, what is delicate and subtle to one may be insipid and drab to another: similarly, what is cheerful to one person may be dismissed by the other.

Personal preference may be the starting point for choosing a color, it is certainly the final basis by which you should test the colors scheme you are contemplating.

The advice of experts and all the color theory will be of no good if you are not happy with the result of your color scheme.
