Ride In The Color Wheel By Sheryll Cross At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Be it interior or exterior house painting, colors can certainly reflect the personality of their owners. Sometimes, the paint themselves dictate what the neighbors think of you. That’s why people spend a chunk of their savings hiring painting contractors to put personality to their residence. Imagine a block of gray houses then among these bland colors arise you stunning green (or pink or blue or in this case, any color you prefer) painted all over your house. However, there are homeowners associations that strictly ban such colorful ideas. Others are silent with regard the use of colors and shades but are fiercely petitioning the removal or the changing of colors that are too loud. If the law binds you, don’t fret! You still have your interior spaces to match your personality to. With this said, I suggest you get an interior remodeling company.

First, you must identify if you’ll be working with a painting or a remodeling contractor and see if it’ll be an interior of exterior project. Now, on with the colors. Red, blue and yellow---these are the primary colors. I personally don’t use solid colors, it’s too plain for my taste. But I’m not that inclined to overly exaggerated colors that blind the eyes. I prefer pastel shades of red, blue and yellow outlined by darker hues and embossed patterns throughout the lining of the room. If you want you space to exude tranquility, try the cool colors like silver, white, gray, blue and green. Note that these tend to recede you space. On the other hand, warm colors bring excitement in the room. These are your bold, energetic and into your face colors that tends to advance in space. Complementary colors, these are the ones that appear opposite to one another in the color wheel. When put together, they bring out the best of each other. From intensity to contrast to enhancement of colors---all of these may be made using the complementary scheme. But don’t go overboard. You might end up having eyesore. Red and green, yellow and purple and blue and orange are a few of the colors in this design. Know what you want you room to convey, start with that. Then move your way to the color pattern. Utilize all the surrounding elements in the room or in your yard. For the former, one may look into the existing furniture and fixtures to try to tie it all together. For the exterior painting, one may bring to play the environment, the landscape and the equipment already installed like the shade of the roof shingles or tiles, the lighting fixtures, the patio or even the mailbox. Neutral colors or shades of brown, beige, black and white are unifying colors. Be it in the form of interior painting or in the form of furniture like your sofa and tables, these may be easily used this to bind everything in the room.

But I’m pleading, please do not paint your house for the sole purpose of ticking the neighbors or the homeowners association. I know that it is you house, however, you house is built upon a land where everyone is subject to rules and regulation, where homeowners’ policies exist to make the neighborhood conducive to living. Even if there is no specific clause banning the use of black to paint your entire house, I assure you that you’ll be hearing from them. And they’ll probably not stop until you change your exterior house painting.

Whatever you choose, be it residential painting or remodeling, what’s important is that you’re able to let you personality shine through your living space.
