Choosing the right colour and type of paint for your interiors is a crucial decision that can significantly impact the overall look and feel of your space. The paint on your walls serves as a backdrop to your life, influencing the atmosphere and reflecting your personal style. Here are some key considerations to keep in mind when embarking on this important decision, in this episode I share some stories and below I highlight some key points.  1. Reflect Your Personality:    Your home is an extension of yourself, so let your personality shine through your colour choices. 2. Consider the Room's Purpose:    Each room serves a different purpose, and the colour you choose should align with that function.  3. Mind the Lighting:    The amount and type of lighting in a room can significantly affect how a colour appears. Consider both natural and artificial lighting when selecting your paint.  4. Size Matters:    The size of a room plays a role in colour selection. Lighter colours can create a sense of openness and make a room feel larger, while darker colours can add coziness but might be better suited for larger spaces with ample natural light. 5. Harmony with Furnishings:    Take into account your existing furniture and decor. The colour of your walls should complement the furnishings, creating a harmonious and well-coordinated look.  6. Sample Before Committing:    Paint often looks different on a small swatch compared to an entire wall. This helps avoid surprises and ensures you're happy with the final result. 7. Create Flow Between Rooms:    If you're painting multiple rooms, consider how the colours will flow from one space to another. A cohesive colour palette throughout the house can create a sense of unity and continuity. 8. Quality Matters:    Invest in quality paint. While it might be tempting to cut costs on paint, higher-quality products often result in better coverage, durability, and a more professional finish. Remember, the colour of your walls can influence your mood and the overall ambiance of your home. Take the time to explore various options, and choose a palette that makes you feel comfortable.   For more interiors inspiration, visit: https://miriamprada.com/ Catch behind-the-scenes moments on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@atelier_prada Follow us on Instagram for visual delights: https://www.instagram.com/atelier_prada/
