Choosing The Color Of Your Dream HouseSelecting the proper color is not easy. You can not simply pick the color you like the best
or the color that compliments the color of your house. That color may not be suitable for the bats in your geographic region!
The color of your house affects the temperature of the roosting chamber. Dark colors absorb more solar heat and there for make a warmer chamber.
Light colors absorb less solar heat and make a cooler chamber. A difference of only a few degrees can be enough to convince bats to avoid your house. The following points effects the appearance of your room when choosing the color:
Collect Decorating Samples from Your Home
The best way to begin choosing the right paint color for your living room is to let fabric lead the way. Fabric provides inspiration for a room's color scheme. It's also a more prudent starting point since painting your living room is much easier and costs a lot less than to change furniture
and window treatments.
Existing Colors
Your North Carolina house is your canvas, but it is not blank. Some colors are already established. What color is your roof? Is there mortar or other siding that will not be painted? Will doors and railings remain their
existing colors? New paint does not need to match existing colors, but it should harmonize.
Darks and Lights
Light colors will make your North Carolina house seem larger. Dark siding or dark bands of trim will make your house seem smaller, but will draw more attention to details. Darker shades are best for accenting recesses,
while lighter tones will highlight details which project from the wall surface. On traditional Victorian homes, the darkest paint is often used for the window sashes.
Notice Architectural Features
Highlighting window casements, columns, staircases, crown moldings and
other architectural features with shades of white can instantly turn your living room into a true showcase admired by friends, family and yourself. If you're feeling brave, instead of painting your living room's architectural features white or off-white, consider the palest shade of
color to coordinate with the walls.
Effect and colors are partners. Colors that encourage intimacy include reds and oranges. Color that are dramatic include navies, deep greens, and purples. Colors to add freshness include apple greens, yellow and whites. Easy to live with colors are mid-blues and taupes. Take courage. Choose
colors you like. Apply the process. The results will be rewarding.
