It can be hard to figure out what colours to choose for the interior walls of a home. Rather than suggesting specific hues, here are some more general tips. The Effect of Light The quality of the light that shines on a room's walls will affect how their colour appears. The same yellow-painted walls will look different in a dim room than in direct sunlight. Thus, look at your preferred paint samples in the place they're destined for.
When we moved into our house the kitchen was a bit yucky. The wall and ceiling around the oven had turned yellow-brown from years of cooking smells, and there was splattered oil all over the walls. It made the whole room feeling uninviting. As soon as we moved in I knew what I had to do: we scrubbed down the walls and repainted the whole room with new white paint. It was such a simple change with a dramatic impact. This blog is all about changing the mood of a room with a new coat of paint and how you can achieve the same effect.
