But with so many options, how can you decide which colour is best for your bedroom? Fear not! At Monapart we're here to help you find the perfect shade for your bedroom walls.
Your mood and colours
Al choosing a wall colourIf so, it is important to consider how you want to feel in the room. Do you want to wake up feeling energised and ready to face the day? If so, it's best to choose bold colours such as orange, which will give the space a burst of energy. Or if you want something more soothing, opt for lighter blues or greens that will create a relaxing atmosphere.
No matter what mood you choose, there are endless options to suit your needs and make you and your family's bedroom ideal for every member of your family.
Creating balance and interest
Choosing a colour can be limiting and somewhat overwhelming depending on the spaciousness, lighting... of the room. A great way to ensure the space has plenty of interest without being overwhelming is to select two complementary colours for balance and visual appeal. For example, if green is your favourite colour, try pairing it with white or grey accents for dimension and contrast. Or mix things up by painting one wall a bright blue and keeping the rest neutral; this will draw attention and add a bit of flair without overpowering the space.
Think about enlightenment
Lighting plays an important role when it comes to wall colours: you don't want something too light that doesn't show up in low light situations! Natural light coming in through windows can wash out certain shades, while artificial lights can make them look different to how they do in natural light environments. To avoid surprises once you start painting, always test samples first before making a final decision - this will give you an idea of how the colour looks under different lighting conditions so you can be sure it's the right one before you start that project!
A colour for every occasion
As we already know, each colour has a different effect on us. Below, we explain the most suitable colours for bedroom walls depending on the effect you want them to have on you.
Blue: In all its versions, blue is the ideal colour because it conveys peace, calm, serenity... If you choose something darker in the blue range, it is advisable to combine it with warm colours, to set points of light so that the atmosphere does not become too dark and gloomy.
Lila: It is the colour associated with femininity and spirituality. It has calming effects and a touch of mystery, so it is ideal for bathrooms and bedrooms where we want to create a stress-free sanctuary.
Green: considered the best colour for relaxing the eyes. Green is a colour suitable for almost every room in the house, but in the case of painting your bedroom walls in this colour, you will notice its calming effect, which is why we consider it a good colour for bedrooms.
OrangeOrange is a colour that evokes excitement, enthusiasm and energy. Since it activates our body, it is an optimal colour for a bedroom, especially if you are one of those people who find it hard to get up early and jump out of bed in the morning.
In conclusion, whether you're looking for something classic and soft or something bolder and brighter, adding colours to your bedroom walls can really change the whole mood of a room. From choosing complementary shades to trying out colours in different lighting conditions, these tips will help you find the right paint colour for your bedroom walls!
