Choosing the right paint color can transform your space. Here’s how to make the best decision:

• Think about lighting – Natural light affects how colors appear. Test samples at different times of the day.

• Use color samples – Paint small sections before committing to a full room.



• Test small sections before committing – This helps you see how the color interacts with your space.

Some colors work well in almost any home:

• Neutral tones – Beige, gray, and white provide a timeless look.

• Bold colors for accents – Deep blues, greens, or reds create striking focal points.



• Soft pastels – Light pinks, blues, and greens add a calming effect.

Choosing the right exterior color enhances curb appeal:

• Match with roof and landscape – Make sure your home blends with its surroundings.

• Consider neighborhood aesthetics – Stay within the general color scheme of your area.



• Opt for durable, weather-resistant paint – Exterior paint needs to withstand different weather conditions.
