You already know that red mixed with yellow makes orange or that yellow and purple make white light, but did you know the scientific term for a mixed color is metamer? Did you also know that the term for two colors that, when mixed, cancel each other out is complement?

The science of color is not an area of life many people focus on unless you’re an interior designer, artist, etc. However, just because you’re not aware of the effects of color doesn’t mean it won’t affect your living experience. Coloring the rooms of your house a certain way can help make your home feel more like home. To any homeowner, especially someone who enjoys entertaining, paying attention to both individual and blended colors can help you create a class act house.

Colors are the same because they are all part of the same spectrum. Colors are different in the effects they have on people. Around the world, the same color in two different cultures can have two completely different meanings. For instance, the Chinese think red is a calming color, while Americans tend to associate red with aggressiveness.

It’s obvious from the foregoing that all colors are not similar to the individual customer. When children choose their favorite color, they’re not just being cute. They are telling the world what they like and dislike. As adults, we tend to forget our favorite colors that we chose as children. This can be a big mistake since color can influence our state of mind.

Let’s not forget that color can also send a strong statement about who you are. The reason that members of the Goth subculture wear almost exclusively black is that they want to reflect their inward state of mind to the outward, external world. It’s tempting to dismiss certain types of dress as a mere fashion statement, but what’s missing is the recognition of the profound influence color and style have beyond fashion.

In today’s world of media-saturated existence, color and style, form and function play a huge role in how we perceive something. Marketers and advertisers use this understanding all the time. Creating effective advertising largely depends on accurately gauging the ‘mood’ of the markets they are targeting, which means taking all the factors, including color, into account.

So when you use a specific color for your room, you may be aligning with an entire set of ideas, beliefs, principles, and assumptions without knowing it. That’s why it’s essential to consider color when designing a room. If you ignore color and focus on furniture placement or decoration, you may accidentally shoot yourself in the foot. Not to say that furniture placement and decoration aren’t necessary. Color deserves to be considered an essential factor in creating a room for you and your family and friends.
