The living space such as lounges, kitchen, bedrooms and
bathrooms is the spaces where we spend precious part of our days when we are at
home, these spaces should be comforting and relaxing spaces where you
should feel re- energized, and this is the true meaning of being at home.
Bringing nature to your spaces is one way of making your spaces cozy and feels
thrilled, this can be achieved by installing interior plants and painting it
green.
Painting green is one of the ways you could make your living
room more enjoyable by implementing the color green in the decoration. You can
do it in various ways, for example with some details such as curtains, pillows,
or rugs. Especially if you are feeling skeptical, this way you can give it a
try and change it easily if you don’t like it. Or, if you do like it, then you
can do something more permanent, such as buying furniture in this color or
painting the walls.
Why decorate your living room in green? Green is the color
of life and energy, and it symbolizes renewal, freshness, harmony and safety.
Just by looking at this color, our minds rest and relax, and this color’s
soothing effect is well-known. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that
this is the most frequent color in nature, so when we see this color, we feel
as if we are surrounded by nature, and that makes us feel peaceful and calm. It
is also said that this color helps enhance vision, as well as alleviate
depression and anxiety. Green makes us feel hopeful, calm, energized and
relaxed. It increases optimism and it looks youthful and lively.
Installation of interior plants is another way of bring
nature into our living spaces. Most of us know instinctively that being close
to greenery makes us feel more at ease with our surroundings. We experience
less stress when there are plants around us. Buildings are quieter and more
