Have you ever had a room that seems too small or too large, and you don't know how to make it look better?
Paint can be an excellent and economical alternative to adjusting your space's proportions. The following images show you how a room can change its proportions with color.
Color can change the proportions of the space. And you can use it in your favor to improve your design's overall look.
How to make a room look more compact with paint:
Use a dark color on all the walls and -if you are brave enough- the ceiling. Dark colors will absorb more light and make the space look smaller. When to use this technique? When the room feels too big.
How to make your space stretch with paint:
This one is similar to the compact technique. If your room is too tall, painting the walls in a dark color will stretch the space horizontally.
Enlarge your room with paint:
Painting the back wall and the ceiling with any color will give the sensation of a longer back wall. Use this layout to create an accent wall. Try it for the wall behind your bed.
How to lower your ceiling with paint:
Another great way to make your room look shorter is by painting the ceiling. We know this idea is not for everyone, but our team of Color Consultation experts can help you find the right color for your space.
You can also shorten, stretch, elongate, compact or expand your room depending on the combination and application of the paint.
Should you use light or dark colors for your home?
Colors can also change the perception of the space. Light works better for small spaces because it can help expand any room. Darker colors, however, can contract and make the area look smaller.
