According to one interior designer, when people return home, they want to see colours that cheer them up and give them a hug. Pure white walls simply don’t do that. They don’t look after you.

Another interior designer commented that certain combinations can key into something on a deeper level, transporting you to a different moment in time. That’s the power of colour.

If you are thinking to try colour on some of your neutral walls, the advice is refreshingly simple: Choose a colour you actually like.

Don’t go for a colour because it’s in fashion, or you’ve seen it in a magazine.

If you’re weary of full colour, test your tolerance with smaller spaces, such as the inside of a cupboard or a bright window frame. If it gives you joy every time you open the cupboard, you can start to take it further.

One can also paint the wooden frameworks the same colour as the walls, helping the rooms look bigger. In the kitchen, painting the overhead cupboards and the walls in the same colour can make it feel more spacious.

While painting the kitchen counters, a bold colour can make everything feel more open and lighter. Additionally, a painted ceiling is a magical thing without being too obvious and can affect how the space feels as well.
