Famous artist Georgia O’Keeffe once said, “I found I could say things in color and shapes that I couldn’t say any other way.” Color is essential to the design of your home. Regardless of what color or colors you choose, it will speak volumes. A simple color change can drastically change the tone and mood of a room. From the walls and floors to the cabinets and throw pillows, selecting color is an important and mandatory part of any choice for any element in your home.

People chose colors for their homes in different ways. Some people choose their favorite colors. Some people choose colors that reflect a theme. Some people choose colors that reflect a feeling.
