Colors

Color is one of the important things in our life, not only for design, but for getting the perfect color that we desire. The colors calm nerves, reduce tension, and give a feeling of comfort and relaxation, and this only happens when the correct color is obtained and placed in the right place. Note that the use of a variety of colors affects our lives greatly, and this is the wisdom of God Almighty in creating the sky and the earth and everything on it As nature is the source of inspiration for all artists to obtain consistent and attractive colors.

The method of mixing and mixing colors artificially does not require the art and great talent to obtain a beautiful color, and to facilitate the mixing process, we will talk about the division of colors and what results from mixing each of them, and how to get a completely harmonious place.

The primary colors are: white, red, green, yellow, blue, black and brown.

Secondary colors: It is the group of colors resulting from mixing two primary colors with each other or several colors, in different proportions.

Method of mixing colors

  • Cyan is produced by mixing white and black.

  • Cream or ivory produced from: white and yellow.

  • Gray is produced by mixing white and black.

  • Pink is produced by mixing: white and red.

  • Beige is produced by mixing: brown and white.

  • Pistachio is produced by mixing: white and green.

  • Orange is produced by mixing: yellow and red.

  • Green is produced by mixing: yellow and blue.

  • Violet is produced by mixing: red and blue.

These colors result from mixing equal proportions of every two primary colors, and a change in one of the proportions results in producing the light and dark colors. These colors can be coordinated according to the place being prepared; As every place in the house must have a specific character, and we cannot put the bedroom colors so that they are similar to the guest rooms and vice versa as well.

So you must know the color characteristics in order to make the choice in a simple, fast and successful way.

Color characteristics

  • Yellow color: It is considered one of the colors that most express joy, joy and radiance, and it is used on dark walls, and is distinguished by its ability to repel insects.

  • Orange color: One of the colors that suit living rooms that contain stereotypical decorations.

  • Green color: It is a relaxing color for nerves. Therefore, we can use green in its degrees in office rooms, and it cannot be used in kitchens and dining rooms. Because it reflects food colors and does not give the true color.

  • Blue: It has the same characteristics as green, and it is the color of calm, comfort, focus and relaxation; This is why sea view is one of the most sedative for nerves due to the blue color in its shades that affect the psyche.

  • Red color: exciting to nervousness, clamor and noise, and it is considered one of the most striking colors, and for this we find the entrances of most shops with red color, and it can be used on some floors.

The choice of colors depends on the décor in the house, for example the classic decors need traditional dark colors such as brown, beige and white, while modern decors are better and better to choose bright light colors that contain some small, cheerful youthful drawings, such as: grass colors with dark gray, and light orange With red fine lines.

We can get a mixture of colors by looking at nature and what it contains, and applying these colors inside the home, for example the colors of vegetables, fruits and flowers together form a rare and bold combination of bright and refreshing colors.

The color blue is often excluded in the lavish interior decor, but it is used in swimming pools and children's rooms, with a heavenly color.
