Colors In Interior Decoration
While we architects decide on the color of the space, the tastes of the people who will live in that space are at the forefront.
In addition, the size of the space, the purpose of use, the natural light and lighting power it receives, the characteristics of
fixed objects (stone wall, fireplace, etc.), decoration style are also effective factors.
RED
It is remarkable. It is the color of dynamism and vitality. It also has appetizing properties.
It is suitable for places with heavy circulation. It is used in public areas such as kitchens,
children's rooms, dining rooms and cafe bars. Since dark tones will create a boring atmosphere,
they should not be preferred especially in small square meters.
ORANGE
It is one of the colors that affect people's perception the most and easily. Although not as effective as red,
it has similar effects. It is one of the warm colors. It is also a happy color. Health, vitality, creativity,
confidence, and communication are the characteristics of orange. It can be used in interior design areas in kitchens,
children's rooms, dining rooms, entrances and cafes. It has a striking and distracting effect, so it is not recommended
to be used in offices and study rooms, but it can be used in the entrance-consultation waiting areas of the offices.
YELLOW
Since it is the closest color to the color of the sun, it has the effect of hope, joy and happiness. It also has a remarkable feature.
The best example of this is that taxis are yellow all over the world. In addition, this color is used in many areas related to security.
Dark tones of yellow cause negative effects such as illness and fatigue. Golden yellow represents wealth and ostentatiousness. As you can
see, different effects can occur even with the tones of a color. In the field of decoration, this color is ideal for low-light, large and
indoor environments. In the office, yellow color is preferred for high efficiency work of people.
GREEN
It has a relaxing effect on the soul as it evokes the color of nature. It is the color of sharing, trust, friendship and harmony.
It has a calming, soothing, reassuring and peaceful feature. When used incorrectly, it creates a feeling of tiredness and laziness.
That's why attention should be paid. Dark tones of this color should not be preferred in environments where people who are prone to laziness are present.
Its light tones are suitable for use in the kitchen, anteroom and courtyard. You can also use it comfortably in your offices due to its confidence and
peaceful effect. When you pay attention to the logos and decorations of many banks, you will see that the green color is preferred. It is a color that
we often come across in hospital and clinic rooms due to its soothing and calming properties.
BLUE
Blue color represents the sky and the sea. Therefore, it has refreshing and calming properties.
While light tones evoke calmness and peace, dark tones create a cooling effect. Therefore, when light
blue tones are used in children's rooms, it creates a calming effect on children. Based on this logic,
you can also use it in your living and resting rooms. Another feature of the blue color is that it inhibits
the instinct of eating. Therefore, we do not recommend using it in dining rooms, kitchens and cafes.
