Despite the changing trends, however, it\u2019s important to stay true to not only your aesthetic but your personality as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This begs the question\u2014what color should you paint your home? Combining aesthetic tips with personality traits described in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/\">Psychology Today<\/a>, here are some of our insights when it comes to choosing the colors of your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Black<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/us\/blog\/digital-leaders\/201106\/what-does-the-color-you-choose-say-about-you\">Psychology Today, Psychologist Bernardo Tirado<\/a>&nbsp;reveals that \u201cpeople who choose black as their favorite color are often artistic and sensitive\u201d and \u201care careful with the details of their lives.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"693\" src=\"https:\/\/morty-content-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_664737667-1024x693.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-987\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_664737667-1024x693.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_664737667-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_664737667-768x520.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_664737667-1536x1040.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_664737667-2048x1387.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Painting any wall of your home black is practically guaranteed to look ultra-chic. But <em>only<\/em> if the furniture and items around it are strategically curated. Make sure your furniture and\/or appliances are a stark contrast\u2014otherwise, your house will give off a bit of a vampire-vibe. Monochrome, for instance, is a great way to make a black wall look <em>oh so<\/em> elegant. Try a black kitchen wall against your white kitchen cabinets. Or a black accent wall next to a white wall in your living room. Black and white tile floors? We\u2019re swooning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/curatedinterior.com\/\">CuratedInterior.com<\/a> also suggests <a href=\"http:\/\/curatedinterior.com\/black-wall-interiors\/\">28 Ideas for Black Wall Styling.<\/a>&nbsp;Adding lots of plants, gold picture frames, or cream furniture will create a stylish, yet welcoming balance to any room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you\u2019re a sensitive and artistic person who is meticulous with each item that goes on display? Black walls might be the right fit for one of the rooms in your new home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">White<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/morty-content-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_515015212-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_515015212-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_515015212-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_515015212-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Tirado describes people who like white as \u201corganized and logical\u201d and who also \u201cdon\u2019t have a great deal of clutter in their lives.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes sense, as most people with white interiors seem to accentuate the natural architecture of their home rather than the objects in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fear your house might seem too sterile? Rather than acquiring an abundance of knick-knacks, opt for a medium-sized snake plant, a palm tree, or an orchid to accessorize your furniture. Adding earthy-tones will also convey a warmth to any room. Try light-stained woods for your cabinets and a neutral sofa in tan, taupe, or gray. You can always add a black picture frame or a bright, colorful accent pillow for contrast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re someone who is an anti-hoarder and prefers minimal, modern furniture, white walls are a good, clean option. Any room with high ceilings will benefit from a white room as dark colors can sometimes seem overpowering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Red<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/morty-content-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_29221507-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-989\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_29221507-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_29221507-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_29221507-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_29221507-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_29221507-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Red is so often associated with fiery passion. So is it any surprise that people who love red would be described by Tirado as those who \u201clive life to the fullest\u201d? What could be more #YOLO than a red wall?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Red is way more versatile in home interiors than one might think. It can be ultra-modern as a living room wall when paired with a mid-century white sofa and patterned accent pillows. Or it can be an incredibly regal entryway wall amidst ornate gold frames, embroidered textiles, and hand-painted antique cabinets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever your aesthetic, if you\u2019re someone who likes to take design risks and make a statement, a red wall might be something you need to go for in your lifetime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blue<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/morty-content-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_315930356-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-990\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_315930356-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_315930356-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_315930356-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>If your mantra is \u201ckeep calm and carry on,\u201d painting your living room blue might be perfect for you. People who love blue, according to Tirado, are \u201creliable and always make an effort to think of others.\u201d They also \u201cfeel that stability is the most important aspect in life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To play up the harmonious vibe, we suggest keeping it cool. Try a charcoal rug, a light gray sofa, or blue accents that don\u2019t quite match the wall paint. And balance the cool tones with a <em>suggestion<\/em> of warmth\u2014perhaps a bouquet of yellow roses or a decorative throw pillow.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/morty-content-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_175089683-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-991\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>However, if your home has more of a vintage vibe, a turquoise blue wall with added warm tones in gold, bronze, and pink will strike the perfect balance between serene calm and old-fashioned elegance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Green<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"564\" height=\"422\" src=\"https:\/\/morty-content-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cocolapine.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cocolapine.jpg 564w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cocolapine-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 564px) 100vw, 564px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>(Photo from <a href=\"http:\/\/cocolapinedesign.com\/\">Coco Lapine Design<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tirado describes green lovers as \u201caffectionate, loyal, and frank.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you fall into that category, go for painting your living room a deep green. Adding tan high-quality leathers paired with simplistic black and white textile patterns can create a straightforward, down-to-earth vibe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creams and industrial-style accessories are also both stylish and utilitarian. Opt for an Edison light bulb, or a brass floor lamp to keep the room eclectic and interesting. Don\u2019t forget to include lots of plants. They will highlight the green wall, tying in all the objects of the room together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yellow<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/morty-content-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2017\/11\/shutterstock_342005144-1024x716.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-993\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s easy to associate yellow with happiness and sunshine. But according to Tirado, people who love yellow also enjoy learning and sharing their knowledge with others. This type of warmth and energy can stimulate any room. But yellow is particularly appropriate for the kitchen, as kitchens tend to inherit such a lively, social, atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Warm yellow walls are especially inviting when paired with large windows that allow for a lot of natural light. Cream cabinets and furniture neutralize the bold hue to create a cheerful, fun atmosphere that isn\u2019t distracting. Perfect for light conversation while cooking, or for morning chatter over coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Purple<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/morty-content-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2017\/11\/elledecor.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-998\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/elledecor.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.morty.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/elledecor-300x240.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>(Image from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.elledecor.com\/design-decorate\/color\/news\/g3234\/purple-rooms\/?slide=8\">Elle Decor<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last, but not least, Tirado describes people who love purple as \u201cartistic and unique.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Purple walls certainly convey a unique sense of glamor. They look&nbsp;best when paired with ultra-luxe items\u2014velvets, gold picture frames, marble, faux fur throws, and turquoise ceramics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you love travel, art, and antique treasures, purple might be the best choice for your living room, your entryway, or any room that invokes your artistic spirit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Takeaway<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It doesn\u2019t matter how many design magazines you peruse, or how many swatches of paint you browse at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homedepot.com\/?cm_mmc=SEM%7cTHD%7cGoogle%7c%7cBase-B-BT1-BT1&amp;gclid=EAIaIQobChMI8uCth_-x1wIVB7bACh2d6AhlEAAYASAAEgIbo_D_BwE&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds&amp;dclid=CNuQ_4j_sdcCFcVFNwods0QNmw\">Home Depot.<\/a>&nbsp;When it comes to your home, you just have to do what feels right. It\u2019s important to keep not only your aesthetic tastes in mind, but also know what colors speak to your personality.
