There are many benefits to a good interior design plan that fits the personality and lifestyle of a client. Today I am going to briefly discuss some of the more significant outcomes of a pleasing interior. It has been proven that the ability of interior design elements can evoke a positive or negative emotional response in people. These findings open the door to design spaces that consciously manipulate decorative elements with the goal of encouraging creativity, peace, and happiness.” A. The first benefit is to mental health and how the psychology of design can elevate or diminish a persons mood depending on the enjoyment and associations with their interior. B. The second is the daily comfort with the personalization of your space. Feeling like it reflects who you are and represents the lifestyle you want to live. Research shows that high life satisfaction correlates with better health, the absence of difficulties such as depression, or sleep disturbances. Furthermore, individuals who are satisfied with life are good problem solvers and tend to be more resistant to stress. Principals of Design Help Us Feel Balanced There are many mental health benefits to a harmonious interior. Probably the most beneficial is that it gives one a sense of control of their lives. Also, an important aspect of this is that they have a safe haven from the world that they are comfortable in and this space functions well for them. Of course, there are general features of spaces that work as a positive elements to begin with like good lighting, spaciousness and earthly elements. Principals of design –are different techniques used in interiors to create interest -Balance, proportion, symmetry, emphasis, rhythm and contrast play a big part of an interiors that flows throughout the space. Here are some examples of these principals in design. The Color of Memory In a time when the outside world is so unpredictable, to have a home that you feel safe, comfortable, and happy is Important. Things in your environment that make your space more personalized, like colors you enjoy seeing and textures you enjoy touching. There are some general feelings colors bring on- Red Red is the color of power, aggression, and passion. It also triggers the appetite (which is why it is such a popular color in restaurants.) Red promotes appetite and a sense of urgency, which may be why so many stores and restaurants use the color red. Orange Orange is associated with energy, sports, competition, and innovation. It’s another warm tone that can quickly make a space feel snug and cozy. -Orange and yellow may promote optimism. Yellow Yellow is the only warm color associated with relaxation. It is associated with happiness, creativity, and innocence. Blue This is a color that communicates fresh, calm, serenity. It is a conservative, orderly color that works well in professional settings. It’s popular in health offices and financial institutions. -Blue is said to promote productivity and a sense of security. Purple This is an indulgent color that evokes feelings of luxury, privilege, and specialness. It is a ceremonial color used in many religions to connote divinity. Purple is said to support problem-solving skills and promote creativity. Black Many people think that black is the absence of color, but in fact, black absorbs all light in the color spectrum, meaning it is the combination of all colors. When you add many leftover paint colors together, it often creates black. Research in color psychology shows that black evokes many different associations. It is often linked with death, unhappiness, and mystery. But it’s also the color of sophistication, seriousness, intellectualism, and sexuality. Black is not a cheerful color, so it’s usually used as an accent. When used sparingly, black elements can create calming harmony and balance in a room. Liberal use of black can also make an area look powerful, dramatic, or important. White White is a neutral color that is common in most homes. Most ceilings are white, and this color is the most popular choice for walls. White reflects light, making rooms feel brighter, more spacious, and bigger. It also evokes feelings of cleanliness, purity, and innocence. Personal Associations While there is plenty of research that shows how most people react to colors, personal experience with a color usually outways social norms. Our personal history influences our emotions around colors.
