Different Shades Of Colours Used In Interior Designing

Colour is an important aspect of interior design. It influences our moods and emotions. It also enhances our surroundings and improves our quality of living. Natural colours are all around us. The richness of the colours is seen in the sky, nature, flora, fauna and vegetation. The synthetic colours manufactured in the industry are served as decorative materials for aesthetic purposes. It establishes the aesthetic connection between the object and mood. The study of colours is in the debate based on these categories: physiology, chemists, physicists and psychology. Home interior designers in Chennai usually consider the aesthetic aspects of colours, such as shade( light or dark) and tone( cool or warm). 

Dimension Of Colours

Three properties of colours develop the dimensional colour space concept, the thickness of the object and the distinct length and breadth of the area.

Hue represents the colours red, blue and yellow. If we take the visible spectrum, each colour of an object is determined by the wavelength of the light reflected. An object appears black when all the wavelengths are absorbed and turns white when all are reflected.  Interior decorators in Chennai focus on the choice of their clients for choosing the colours from the hue.

Value is an essential dimension of the colour space. It represents the lightness and darkness of the given hue. In the absence of a hue, one can make visible the colour of black, white or shades of grey.

The tint is a term used to describe a hue. Tints are achieved by mixing white with a pigment or using it in dilute form.

Shade is the term used to describe hue, which has darkened value from its normal value. For example, maroon is the shade of colour red. Shades are achieved by mixing black with pigment.

Intensity refers to the purity of a hue( brightness and dullness of a  colour). The intensity of the colour is known as chroma or saturation. The high intensity of the hue determines the intensity of the tone. 

The two properties of tone

Warm colours are generally attractive colours, They attract the attention of the viewer, and they are considered energetic and exciting colours.

Cool colours, on the other hand, it is perceived as calm and soothing. 

Interior designers in Chennai do wonders with colours and colour combinations. They combine both value and practicality to evolve a scheme.
