Best colors to Paint your house - Some usefull Tips

When painting your home - did you know that the exterior color of houses in a certain shade of yellow, but that choosing the wrong shade of yellow can make it look so disastrous? Well, here are a few tips you may want to consider before choosing the right colors for your house!!

You'll find many brochures in paint stores, showing various combinations of exterior paint colors. But most people don't realize that most of those combinations actually include three colors, and not just two. Limiting your exterior paint scheme to just two colors makes it just so plain and common.

Mostly, think fun colors and go for a third, or even a fourth, exterior color. Adding more colors will also add definition to the various architectural details of your home. Use gloss or semi-gloss paint on wood trim.

Let's touch upon each of the important topics now:

The Psychology of Exterior Colors

When choosing exterior colors, take the sales price of your home into account. Certain colors, especially muted, complex shades, look better than simpler colors. A complex color contains tints of gray or brown, and usually requires more than one word to describe, such as "sage green," as opposed to "green."

On the other hand, simple colors are straightforward and pure. Generally, houses are painted in simple colors like yellow or tan, accented by white, blue, or green trim.

The Psychology of Interior Colors

Using colored, rather than bland, white walls will make things look nice when decorated later. Some researchers have tested the perception of room size and color, and discovered that a room painted white appeared only appeared larger to a few people when compared to an identical room painted in color – and the perceived difference was only about six inches! Most people also look better when surrounded by color, and feel happier!

Entryways should bring the exterior colors into the house. Repeating shades of the exterior throughout your home will make the entire home seem to be in harmony. Living and family rooms painted in a slightly lighter shade of the exterior color will ensure that you've picked a color your buyers like, because if they didn't like your exterior colors, they wouldn't have bothered to look inside. If they loved the exterior colors, they'll love the interior, too.

When choosing interior colors, consider the use of each room. For instance, kitchen and dining areas that are painted in “food colors,” such as coffee browns, coriander greens, and egg yellows, feel natural.

Since, deeper shades of color imply intimacy and serenity, I like to paint master bedrooms a medium shade of green or blue for warm selling seasons, and rouge red for cooler weather. Other bedrooms can be painted in creamy tones of green, blue, or a pale shell pink.

Seasonal Colors

Always consider the season (the time of year you'll home will be ready to occupy) and climate when choosing colors. Use cool colors, such as blues, greens, and grays, during spring and summer, and warm colors, such as yellows, reds, and maroons, when in the fall and winter.

Color Intensity

When getting ready to paint your house, look at the colors of neighboring houses and choose colors that harmonize, yet stand out from the crowd. Colors that clash badly with other houses will detract from the overall neighborhood.

At the beginning of the article, I told you about homes with yellow exteriors. But which shade of yellow is the best? First, the yellows to avoid: yellows with green undertones look sickly, and yellows with orange undertones gives an impression of cheapness.

The best-looking yellow exterior color is actually a pale, sunny yellow, especially when complimented with one or more carefully-chosen accent colors. For instance, a semi-gloss white trim will give your home a clean and fresh look, and adding a third color, such as green, can make your home even more attractive.

Colors affect human beings in many ways, and by using the principles of Color Psychology, you can make your home stand out from the competition.
