Color is central to the emotion one feels when entering into a space. Color is visceral. In fact, each color is emotional, so when combined with the overall effect of a room it can have an amazing or devastating effect! Color can perform a multitude of roles and can affect a person’s emotions, energy level, and sense of order, or disorder. Color also sets a tone and style in interiors and can make it seem formal or informal, masculine or feminine, coolly aloof or warm and welcoming. The goal for you as a stager and redesigner is to successfully control these effects through the expert use of color as a design tool itself.
