What are the best home colour schemes for each room?

house living room nice

Choosing home colour schemes can be difficult – it’s a lot of pressure trying to find ones that you love and ones that also work well. Juliettes wanted to make these decisions easier for you by looking at which colours work for each room. We’ll be using colour theory, the feeling these colours portray, and which colours work according to Feng shui. To help us advise as best we can, we spoke to Alison Standish, Colour Wellbeing Consultant, and the owner and founder of The Colour Ministry. Entryway The entryway is the first room that guests will see when entering your home, and first impressions count! The main feeling that entryways and hallways should portray is a welcoming feeling.  It’s important to keep the size of your hallway in mind, and how much natural light is available – it’s best to avoid too many dark colours, as this can make the space appear smaller and may not give off a ‘welcoming’ tone. Neutral colours are always a good option as they are bright, welcoming, and fresh.According to Feng shui, using light greys and whites in the home bring joy, clarity, precision, and brightness. For a pinch of colour, yellow is an extremely friendly and inviting colour, as are other warms tones such as orange and red. If you want your home to feel like a relaxing place for all, try calm colours such as blue and green.

Everyone has heard of Rolex, Omega, and Seiko, but which watch brand is the most popular? Luxe Watches dug into the data to find out which luxury watch brand is most popular in each country across the world. By examining which brands people search for in different countries and regions, an interesting pattern emerges – let’s break down the data.

Other key brands represented in the data include Hamilton (most popular in France and Germany), Cartier (most popular in Kuwait and Singapore), and Seiko (most popular in Australia and Japan).
