Take your color inspiration from your environment.

Knowing what colors mean or how they'll influence the look and feel of your home makes it easier to get the results you want.

• Red for kitchens or dining rooms.
  Red is energizing: It can stimulate appetite and encourage conversation, making it a great choice for kitchens or dining rooms.

• Blues for a relaxing atmosphere.
  Blue tones are serene, soothing and calming -- use pastel shades to create a relaxing atmosphere in a bedroom.

• Green can be used as a neutral.
  Green signifies growth, potential and life. Greens can freshen up a room and tend to be more restful to look at for long periods of time.

• Use tools to help visualize colors.
  Yellows make rooms feel cheerful and optimistic, and they work well as secondary colors. The reflective value of yellow can brighten a space where natural light is limited. Take your inspiration from your environment, and use color to personalize your space.
