After all, the paint color you choose will set the tone for each room you addcolorto. 1. Find the existing dominant color that you like, or wish to keep, in the room or on the house. For an interior, it could be the color of your sofa, your flooring or your window coverings. 2. Determine what kindoffeeling you wish to have in the room or around the home. Warm colors, such as red, orange, yellow or beige, can create an invigorating mood or add cozy intimacyto large spaces. Blues, greens, violets or grays, the cool colors, give a serene feeling and can add spaciousness to small places. Consider how complex a color scheme you wish to undertake. There are three main color schemes to choose from: 1. Monochromatic schemes are based on one hue, which varies in value (lightness and darkness), and saturation (the amountof color). An example of this is a pale blue with a pure blue and darkblue. 2. Analogous schemes combine no more than three similar colors. An example of this is red, yellowred (orange) and yellow. 38.
