Worse Colours for your Bedroom





Let me provide you with a simplified version of the colour scheme explanation: Colours can be categorized into three main groups: cool, bright or warm, and neutrals. Cool colours include green, blue, and certain shades of purple. These colours often evoke a sense of calmness and tranquility. Bright colors consist of red, orange, yellow, and some purples. They are vibrant and energetic, adding excitement to the visual spectrum. Neutrals are colours that are closer to earth tones, such as white, gray, and brown. These colours are often used as a base or background and can create a sense of balance and simplicity. Also, to create a more calming effect, you can mix bright or cool colors with a lot of white, which results in a softer, washed-out colour tone.






When it comes to creating a relaxing and soothing ambiance in your bedroom, the colour scheme plays a significant role. The right choice of colours can enhance comfort, promote restful sleep, and contribute to a peaceful atmosphere. While personal preferences vary, many interior designers and experts agree that warm colours are generally a no-no for bedroom spaces. Let's explore the major reason why warm colours are a no no in your bedrooms.






Gbam- Sleep Disruption:

Warm colours are known for their energetic and stimulating qualities. These colours can evoke feelings of passion, excitement, and enthusiasm, making them ideal for social spaces. However, in the bedroom, these vibrant hues can be overwhelming and disruptive to sleep patterns. 






Also, Lighting Considerations: The lighting in your bedroom can greatly impact how colours appear on the walls. Warm-coloured walls can reflect light in a way that creates a more intense and vibrant effect, which might not be desirable for a relaxing bedroom setting.



But, Is it possible to use some tones of warm colours in the bedroom?. 

My Answer is yes. While it's essential to adhere to the principles of good design and colour psychology, personal expression also plays a significant role in choosing a bedroom colour scheme. Everyone has unique tastes and preferences, and if you feel drawn to warm colours for your bedroom, it's essential to find a balance. You can use very very subtle warm colour tones with a lot of white paint mixed in or you Incorporating warm items in subtle ways, such as through accent pieces or decor, can add personality without overwhelming the space.








In conclusion, while warm colours can be inviting and energetic, they are generally considered a no-go for bedroom spaces. Remember, the goal is to design a bedroom that promotes relaxation and rejuvenation, and cool colors can help you achieve just that. However, personal preferences should always be taken into account, and if warm colors truly resonate with you, consider using them in moderation or through accent pieces to strike a harmonious balance between personal expression and serene ambiance.

MY CUTE LITTLE FLOWER VASES

So, I mostly pass by this particular building along Salvation road at Opebi in Ikeja. Most times I am always rushing to catch up with one meeting or one appointment or another. I noticed this entire building unlike others is occupied by Interior decorating product dealer or should I say sellers.

I kept admiring it from afar. One larger size and the other smaller piece. So yesterday I decided to visit the store.
