Best Colors to Paint a Room

MJ • Dec 12, 2021

People often associate a room and its story with the color of the paint, and the interior décor. Colors tell a story and are sometimes a direct reflection of something. People paint rooms to tell a story of their personality, others because of cultural associations. Even with that, it could be challenging to envision how the color of paint would work with the lighting and other decorations like artwork, murals, etc. This article will help you determine the best color for your bedroom design. 

Bold and Bright Colors

If you have a vibrant personality and you want your room to reflect that, you should consider colors like red, white, orange, and yellow for your room décor. These colors are bold and are visually striking. They provide an intense hue and saturation to any room. These colors also give the room a maximum lighting effect, helping you infuse a dramatic look into your space.  Below is a list of bright colors you can incorporate into your bedroom design.

  1. Lime green: This color will give your room a youthful and vibrant vibe, giving you an energetic vibe anytime you step in.
  2. Yellow: Painting your room yellow would give it a sophisticated and bold look. 
  3. White: Choosing white for your room will open up space and make your room appear larger than it is. White will also provide a palette for more aesthetics.
  4. Gold: Enchanting and classic vibes can be gotten from painting the room gold. Pair it up with ancient arts and gold metals, and you are good to go.

Warm and Neutral Colors

Warm colors provide a homey feel to any room. Choosing to paint the walls of your room with any warm and Neutral colors would give your room an inviting atmosphere, making it appear comfortable and relaxing. These colors may include beige, creamy white, light gray, and so on. Neutral colors can be paired with warm accents to give the room a breath of energy and positivity. What are warm colors you should consider? 

  1. Creamy White: This color provides a refreshing and classic look to the room.
  2. Shades of Gray: Gray tones mostly come off as cool. The right shade of Gray will give the room a perfect blend of lightning and neutral artworks. Gray colors work well without making the room appear violent or too cold. 
  3. Beige: This color offers a rich vibe that is easy to the eyes. It works well when paired with honey tones and white beddings.


Cool Colors

Cool colors are evocative, soothing and give a sense of calmness to any object or space. They have the ability to make a space feel more open with a serene effect. Cool colors are known to flatter designs, accentuate styles, and bring a room to life in a way that is pleasant to the eyes and dreamy. If you're looking for something soothing and comforting, cool colors are the best choice. Here are some of the best colors that you can use in your bedroom:

  1. Blue: Blue is known as the most calming color of them all. It is also known to promote sleep, making it a great choice for your bedroom. Just make sure that the shade of blue is light enough to have a calming effect on you; otherwise, it might have the opposite effect and keep you awake at night.
  2. Dark green: Green is another color known for its relaxation properties. You should use light shades since dark green can be quite intimidating.
  3. Purple: Purple is one of the most relaxing colors there is. You probably won't find many bedrooms painted in this shade, but it works well if combined with other colors such as blue or grey.
