Warm color series: red, yellow and orange can make people feel comfortable and excited; The series of cool colors such as cyan, gray and green make people feel quiet and even a little melancholy. White and black are the two poles of vision. Studies have confirmed that black can distract people and make them feel depressed and bored. People who live in such an environment for a long time have extremely dilated pupils and feel numb, which will adversely affect people's health and life span over time. Rooms are decorated with white, which makes them clean, but the contrast of white is too strong, which easily stimulates pupil contraction and induces headache.
American scholars have found that pleasant bright colors can be transmitted to brain nerve cells through the optic nerve, which is conducive to promoting human intellectual development. Children who live in harmonious colors are more creative than those who grow up in ordinary environments. If you are often in a depressed color environment, it will affect the development of brain nerve cells, thus reducing intelligence.

Color matching and personality temperament;
Red+white+pink youthful dynamic.
Red is the most eye-catching color. Compared with the visually shrinking blue, red has a great impact on vision. Therefore, when it is used in furniture, curtains and other large items, we must pay attention to alleviating the oppressive feeling, and control the dosage at about 20% of the total, or use gray or dark red instead of bright red. Speaking of pink, it is not as strong as red, but it has a vivid impression, which can be used to show cute and mature fashion. Gorgeous red, pure white and mature pink set each other off and compete with each other.
Gray+red is very charming.
Colorless series of colors, represented by white and red, are suitable for any color and will not appear messy. Gray and red are colorless and match well. The combination of red and gray, adding simple and elegant dark tones to the unified bright tones, will appear elegant and modern. If you want to "shine in peace", please try to use this color scheme.
Yellow+orange sunshine is warm.
The brightest color is yellow. Yellow can give people a warm feeling. However, because it is as prominent and eye-catching as red, it may make people anxious to use bright yellow too much on large items. It is most suitable to use white cream yellow as the background color of walls or curtains. Because it broadens the horizon and makes people feel that the room is spacious. As a bright yellow color scheme, gray and orange are preferred. Bright yellow with gray will make people feel peaceful and comfortable to live in. Of course, if you want to make the room bright and colorful, you can also decorate the room with green.
Yellow+brown collocation
The so-called gentlest collocation is yellow+brown. Brown doesn't mean monochrome, it is composed of black added to yellow or orange. Because yellow and brown are similar in color, they are easy to unify. But there are many different colors, even yellow and brown, which can't be said to match. There are yellow with a little green and brown with a little red. If you want to pay attention to the unity of colors, you must choose all colors.
Blue+purple dream combination
The color tone centered on blue is the representative style of home improvement, which makes people feel comfortable. In the cool color system, blue has the effect of shrinking visually. If used properly, it can make the room look bigger. For example, hanging a clock or decorative painting on the wall will create a sense of hierarchy in space, and blue for big items such as beds will have a smaller effect than the real thing. Add some purple similar to blue to see. Smoke purple will give you a wonderful feeling of early spring. It can relieve the heaviness of dark blue and bring a mature feeling. A proper combination of bright colors and dark colors will produce a unique effect.
Blue+purple+contrast orange
The collocation of similar tones will give a steady impression, while the collocation of contrasting colors has distinct characteristics. Adding contrast color can also produce the effect of mutual support and harmony. Bright blue and orange are matched in a ratio of about one to one, which is the most contrasting combination. If you want to weaken the contrast slightly, just change the tone of one of the colors, or add some colorless colors, and the effect is good.
Green, fresh and carefree
Green has the function of stabilizing emotions, and people often use it to decorate rooms. It has the same visual contraction effect as blue, and it won't feel oppressive in the room. In addition, this color will not feel the temperature difference, even if it is used in large quantities, it will not feel cold. The most basic color matching method is to unify natural colors. A slightly darker tone can create a peaceful atmosphere. Indoor, with less turbid and brighter green as the color scheme, it will feel very fresh. In order to contrast the brightness of green, you can also borrow the effect of black. But if you use too much black, it will be heavy, so the trick is to spread it. Mature and steady-this collocation is very suitable for Asian aesthetic concepts.
Yellow-green+pink beautiful and lovely combination
Yellow-green is young and pink is lovely. Combining the advantages of these two colors is a good example of contrast color. This collocation shows the gorgeous style unique to Asia. When using contrast collocation, the contrast is easy to be too strong, so the colorless color system, especially black, is successfully used here to stabilize the situation. In addition, if it is a mild gray tone, it will have a sweet and lovely effect.

Color matching skills in home decoration;
First, the top surface should generally be light: light color gives people a light feeling, and dark color gives people a heavy feeling. Usually, the room is handled from top to bottom, from shallow to deep. For example, the ceiling and walls of the room are white and light, the dado is white and light, and the baseboard is dark, which will give people a sense of stability. On the contrary, top-heavy will give people a sense of oppression.
Second, choose the color according to the orientation of the room: the room facing the east gets the sunshine first and leaves early, so it gets dark early, and it is often safest to use light warm colors. The room facing south has the longest sunshine time, and the use of cool colors often makes people feel more comfortable and the effect of the room is more charming. The room facing west is influenced by the strongest sunset in a day, so it seems more comfortable to use deep cold tones. Because there is no direct sunlight in the room facing north, we should tend to use warm colors and light colors when choosing colors.
Third, choose the color according to the purpose of the room: the purpose of the room often determines the effect you want to create. The living room should be bright, relaxed or warm and comfortable, while the dining room can be dark. The kitchen is always suitable for using light and bright colors, but we should pay attention to using warm colors carefully. Corridors and hallways are just passages, so you can use colors boldly. The style of the bedroom is completely determined by different people's tastes.
Fourth, choose the color according to the shape of the room: color can change people's feelings about the shape of the room to a certain extent. For example, cool colors can make a lower ceiling look taller and make a narrow room wider. Using dark colors on the wall far away from the room will move that wall forward. Similar effects can change the appearance of any room.
What is the background, what is the main body and what is the key point? This is the first problem to be considered in color design. At the same time, the relationship between objects of different colors forms a multi-level background relationship, such as a sofa with a wall as the background and a cushion on a sofa with a sofa as the background. In this way, for the cushion, the wall is the big background and the sofa is the small background or the second background. In addition, in many designs, such as walls and floors, it is not necessarily just one color, but many colors may be used alternately, and the graphic color and background color will also be transformed into each other, which must be noted.
Color and emotion.
Color can also cause people's mood swings, and the close relationship between color and people's emotional world can be expressed as follows:
Home improvement color matching:

Purple:
Purple is fragile and slender, always giving people infinite romantic associations. Purple, which is highly regarded by the fashion world, is a little gray and slightly neutral. The matching skills are as follows: in a room dominated by purple, you can add some yellow flowers, such as putting a pot of yellow flowers, which can make the quiet atmosphere more active. If the wall is blue-purple, you can try purple-white stripes or pure white in the choice of fabrics.
Neutral cool color:
Rich and varied neutral cool colors, from perfect gray to green or blue. These colors are usually used in modern materials such as aluminum and stainless steel.
