You\u2019ll be surprised at how many of our clients were already living in their dream homes when they called us for a home transformation project \u2013 and just needed a few new splashes of paint on their walls to realise it.<\/p>\n<h2>1. The Science of Colour and Mood<\/h2>\n<p>Research has shown that colours have a direct effect on a person\u2019s moods. Colours can make an actual difference in the temperature of our surroundings and cause rooms to appear larger (or smaller). In humid and space-constrained Singapore, it\u2019s essential to choose colours that will make your cosy HDB flat feel cooler and appear more spacious.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s go over some factors to consider when selecting the best colours for your home.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_text_block animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;&#8221; border_size=&#8221;0&#8243; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h2>2. What Do You Want Each Space To Say<\/h2>\n<p>Can\u2019t agree with your partner on a \u201cperfect colour\u201d for your HDB flat? Or perhaps you\u2019d like some variety (and not just \u201cbaby blue\u201d or \u201ccool white\u201d everywhere)?<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the good news \u2013 not every room in your flat needs to conform to the same colour scheme. Rather, we recommend that each space have its own colour palette, according to the room\u2019s specific purpose.<\/p>\n<p>Not to go all Marie Kondo on you, but it will be useful to walk into each room in your home and take a look around. Think about how each room makes you feel. Now, think about how you\u2019d like to feel in that room. Don\u2019t worry about the details, just identify the predominant feelings that enter your body, while you\u2019re standing in the room. This process will help you to determine the kind of mood you want the space to evoke, and inform you of which colours you should choose.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, it\u2019s still important to maintain a sense of connectivity and cohesiveness between the different rooms \u2013 so walking between rooms won\u2019t be jarring to the eye. One good way to ensure continuity is to use varying shades of the same colour, or to use complementary shades of different colours.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=&#8221;16680&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; frame=&#8221;noframe&#8221; caption_pos=&#8221;below&#8221; remove_rounded=&#8221;yes&#8221; fullwidth=&#8221;no&#8221; overflow_mode=&#8221;none&#8221; link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;no&#8221; intro_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;200&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\">BTO Punggol by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hometrust.sg\/interior-designers\/interior-genesis-pte-ltd\">Interior Genesis<\/a><\/h6>\n[\/spb_image] [spb_text_block animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;&#8221; border_size=&#8221;0&#8243; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h2>3. Choose White for Elegance and Space<\/h2>\n<p>The most \u201ctraditional\u201d advice for making a room look more expansive, is to paint the walls white. This advice is still sound, as white reflects light and creates in illusion of space. Additionally, if your apartment does not get a lot of natural light, white walls can brighten your rooms.<\/p>\n<p>However, pure white can feel stark and cold if overused. If you\u2019re not looking for a feeling of pristine purity and cleanliness, consider off-white tones like taupe, cream, ivory or beige. These colours have the same \u201cbrightening\u201d effect, while giving your home a cosier feel.<\/p>\n<p>Also, think about painting wall trims and mouldings in a shade that\u2019s lighter than your main walls. This will give your walls the appearance of being \u201cfurther back\u201d, once again creating the impression of space and size.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=&#8221;16681&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; frame=&#8221;noframe&#8221; caption_pos=&#8221;below&#8221; remove_rounded=&#8221;yes&#8221; fullwidth=&#8221;no&#8221; overflow_mode=&#8221;none&#8221; link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;no&#8221; intro_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;200&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\">Woodlands Drive 16 by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hometrust.sg\/interior-designers\/homies-design\">Homies Design<\/a><\/h6>\n[\/spb_image] [spb_text_block animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;&#8221; border_size=&#8221;0&#8243; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<p>An ideal way of implementing the use of white is to adopt a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hometrust.sg\/projects\/latest\/minimalist\">minimalist decorating style<\/a> that\u2019s clean, tidy and easy on the eyes.

However, an overly bright yellow is not a great choice as your main colour scheme, as researchers claim that overexposure to this colour can give rise to increased aggression and frustration. Interestingly, babies in these studies also cried more often in yellow-coloured rooms.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, choose a slighter milder shade of yellow, or place spots of bright yellow in your rooms (instead of painting entire rooms this colour).<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=&#8221;16685&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; frame=&#8221;noframe&#8221; caption_pos=&#8221;below&#8221; remove_rounded=&#8221;yes&#8221; fullwidth=&#8221;no&#8221; overflow_mode=&#8221;none&#8221; link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;no&#8221; intro_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;200&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\">Tiong Bahru by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hometrust.sg\/interior-designers\/free-space-intent\">Free Space Intent<\/a><\/h6>\n[\/spb_image] [spb_text_block animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;&#8221; border_size=&#8221;0&#8243; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h3>Blue<\/h3>\n<p>Blue is soothing and has been called \u201cthe colour of the mind\u201d.
