Flooring color is a personal choice. But regardless of taste, you should be aware of how color — even in flooring — can affect your mood, according to feng shui principles.
Here’s a run-down of how flooring can create an environment.
Happiness: If you love lavender, soft pink and green, turquoise or even traditional white, you are interested in happy colors that reflect a lot of light and brighten the room.
Calm: If serenity is what you seek, opt for cool colors, like blue-gray and green-gray. These colors will allow you to relax and provide you with a great canvas to still add some other colors that you enjoy. Shades of gray work well in spaces with a lot of natural light.
Drama: Contrasts are a great way to add personality to your home. Picture a room that is mostly white with a few touches of black. Also, adding dashes of other colors to the mix will only complement each room even more.
Having this knowledge will allow you to create the mood you want in your home. What do your current colors say about you? Maybe it’s time to make a change! Or maybe you just need to add more of a color you already have in your home.
