Our home is our safe haven, the place where we return every day after a long day of work and where we build many of our happy memories. It is very important to ensure that, at home, tranquility is the watchword, and that feelings such as anxiety, anguish or stress are kept far away.
The choice and correct use of colors is very important for the balance of the environment, having the ability to generate well-being and provoke positive feelings. In this article we talk about the 5 colors you should have in your home for a more balanced and healthy environment.
blue, the serenity
Taking into account the psychology of colors, blue conveys serenity and helps concentration. You can choose a lighter blue (represents youth and new beginnings) or, if you prefer, a dark blue (represents wisdom and is ideal for moments of introspection and reflection).
green, the freshness
If nature were just one color, it would certainly be green. From pale to emerald, this color is fresh and revitalizing. If you cannot or do not like to have plants at home, the use of green is essential - whether on a wall, on the sofa or on small notes such as pillows, of course.
white, the purity
This is the color that, as a rule, most predominates in Portuguese houses. It is, by default, the color of our walls because, in fact, it never compromises. However, if you are not a big fan of white walls and have the rooms in your house painted in a different color, we suggest you apply white in other situations: lampshades, bed covers, pillows, blankets, vases, etc.
gray, the balance
Gray has always been a huge trend in decoration and, fortunately, is part of the list of colors that bring tranquility to the home. Conventional wisdom holds that gray represents balance as it is the junction between two opposites - black and white. Cold grays, drawn to blue, are ideal for neutralizing an environment and is easily combined with other stronger colors.
yellow, the joy
The color of happiness! Yellow is directly related to the sun and helps bring some light to our homes, even on cold, rainy winter days. However, since this is a very strong color, don't overdo it. We suggest using yellow in notes such as rugs, blankets, decorative motifs or pillows.
