Yellow is associated with happiness, warmth, and mental clarity. It’s an energising shade that works wonders in kitchens or creative spaces.
Blue is calming and stabilising, making it ideal for bedrooms, bathrooms, or anywhere you want to unwind.
Green represents nature, growth, and balance. It’s shown to reduce stress and promote a sense of harmony — great for lounges or home offices.
Red stimulates energy and passion. A little goes a long way — perfect for accents in dining rooms or hallways.
Purple has long been linked to creativity and imagination, making it a great feature colour for bedrooms or reading nooks.
Interior designers also back this up: “The colours we surround ourselves with can have a profound effect on how we feel,” says interiors expert Karen Haller, author of The Little Book of Colour.
Room-by-Room Colour Inspiration
Want to boost your home’s feel-good factor? Here’s how to bring colour into every corner of your home:
Bedroom – Choose muted tones like dusty blue, soft lavender or sage green to promote rest and relaxation. Roman or roller blinds in these shades can soften morning light and set a calm tone for your day.
Living Room – This is your social hub, so introduce warm, welcoming tones like ochre, terracotta, or moss green. Vertical blinds or curtains in textured fabrics can add depth while introducing colour.
Kitchen – Uplift your energy with fresh colours like lemon yellow, mint green or vibrant coral. Try a bold roller blind to add instant personality without a full renovation.
Bathroom– Create a calming, spa-like atmosphere with soft blues, greens, or gentle greys. These soothing tones help you unwind and bring a fresh, airy feel to smaller spaces. Moisture-resistant roller blinds in these hues offer both privacy and serenity while standing up to humidity.
Commercial Spaces – Colour isn’t just for the home. We can help you bring the same energy and mood-boosting benefits into your commercial setting too. Whether it’s calming tones for a clinic, uplifting colours for a classroom, or modern hues for an office, our made-to-measure blinds can enhance productivity, atmosphere, and brand personality in any workspace.
Decorating With Colour – Without the Overwhelm
You don’t need to redecorate your whole home to feel the benefits of colour. Start small:
Swap neutral blinds for colourful alternatives.
Add cushions, artwork or rugs in your chosen palette.
Try a statement blind in a bold pattern as a design feature.
The key is to choose colours that make you feel good — not just what’s trending.
