Selecting the right kind of shade for your interiors can give you a hard time.

To help you sort this problem of selecting the right wall paint for your rooms, Surfaces Reporter(SR) has some quick points following which you can easily select the right kind of wall paint for your interiors. Try them out.

Match Paint with Furniture and Interiors

Always make sure that your interior matches well with your paint. You can get your walls painted anytime but purchasing furniture to match the wall paint will be a hefty deal. To match with light wooden furniture, go for dark shades. Always know that contrast works well.

Go with Light Shades for More Light

If your living room or bedroom has enough natural light, paint your walls with light shades of nude colors. They will brighten the room even more without having the need for artificial lights in the day time. You can also paint your walls with shades of green or yellow to bring in more natural light.

For a Bold Look, Go for Dark Shades

Sometimes, people want their space to reflect a bold vibe. Dark colors like royal blue, turquoise, dark green work really well to give the space a bold, loud look.

Keep it Balanced

Make sure you keep a balance between the colors you choose. If you are painting one wall with a dark shade color and the other three walls with a light shade color, make sure all the painted walls are balanced equally and the coating on each wall is done in the exact ratio of 6:3:2.

Try Contrast

Contrast walls sure work well. You can also try contrasting your furniture with the color of wall paint. Not only will it give an accent to the walls but also work well for the whole interior where light shade walls will help as a medium to brighten the room and the dark wall will make sure to give a bold look.

Use Testers

If you are ever unsure of what color will suit the best on your walls, always use testers beforehand. Testers will give you an idea of how the actual paint will look on the walls. You can try contrasting colors as well while using testers.

Paint a Small Section Beforehand to Match With Furniture

One can sometimes get a problem with adjusting according to the paint of walls. Before painting the whole walls, try painting just a section on the wall with the desired color. It will give you an idea about how the wall will look after it is fully painted with the color or whether the color will suit your eyes.

Make a Color Theme

You can always find inspiration for color themes in your interiors. Try finding that one call within your interior that can accent the walls and work with the whole interior. A color theme can be chosen through testers, colorcard,s or by hiring a consultant.

Match it with Artwork

Nowadays, every modern house has at least one piece of art on its walls. To take the benefit of wall art, you can take inspiration from the colors used in the wall art and paint your walls in similar colors.

Use Paint Color Apps for a Better Understanding

With modernization, there are a few apps that have been introduced in the interior design segment for homeowners where one can simply try different colors on the walls of a room and know for themselves the best color that will suit their wall. These apps are user-friendly and work best when a homeowner is confused while choosing a wall color.
