Color Theory

The implications of color palettes on an individual’s personality and how they can be subtly incorporated in home elevators

Colors are more than a visual experience and a great way to communicate: They hold the power to radically impact our moods and emotions. How one perceives a color, tone or hue is completely subjective. While some love experimenting with colors, others might stick to a limited range of shades. No matter what colors are in your rooms, they can reveal a lot about your personality traits. 

Today, the concept of home elevators in spacious homes has driven homeowners to demand complementary designs and colors to stitch the décor theme and surrounding elements together. To make the elevator and elevator area welcoming and inviting, people have started experimenting with rich textures like Greenlam’s range of woodgrain, solid, abstract, metal, stone and marble pattern laminates and compacts. Adding color and visual interest lightens the mood, and the right graphics can transform the experience into something more fun.

Greenlam offers a wide range of textures, colors, patterns and material, and can customize designs per the client’s inspiration through Digital Print Laminates. These laminates have revolutionized the décor industry by giving a personalized and classy look to any space. Another excellent product for lifts and lobbies is AFX – Anti fingerprint laminate. AFX laminates add elegance to elevators. They make the surface non-porous and hydro-repellant and come with superior scratch and stain resistant features, making the laminates low maintenance and easy to clean.

As we dive deep into the relationship between colors and our personalities, here are a few home décor suggestions to suit your taste

Passionate Red 

Red is a color of passion, love and strength. Whether used in clothing, makeup or home décor, it has the power to hold one’s attention. This color is best suited for personalities who are impulsive, extroverted and impossible to ignore. 

When using this shade in your interiors, we suggest opting for decorative laminates to make a voguish statement and subtly weave in distinctive shades. Pair light brown textures in wood alternatively with red laminate décor. This combination will add an eye-catching, yet refreshing, look to your cabinet. For an elegant touch, go for a timeless matte-finished vase or decorative showpiece that will instantly accentuate the space. 

As Serene as Blue

Shades of blue are always associated with the sky and water. If you prefer a calm and airy bedroom space, then start with layering your bed with a plain bedsheet, a thick fabricated quilt and velvet cushions. Remember to keep this bedding set in shades of muted gray and light blue to promote comfortable sleep amidst a warming ambiance. 

Keep your space uncluttered and bring the goodness of nature indoors with a floor plant. You can use dim lighting to zone areas. This soothing indulgence is perfect for those looking to transform their bedroom into a peaceful paradise. For walls, opt for scratch-resistant wood pattern laminates in gray with a slight texture to blend with the décor theme. Lastly, embrace the trend of blending the look of your home elevator with other elements in the room by opting for similar soft shades to match your style statement.

The Vibrance Of Yellow 

Since the colors we choose for our walls have a high influence on our mood and energy, many often feel like choosing happy, positive and encouraging colors, especially for areas dedicated to studying or reading. In these rooms, go for hues of yellow as this color radiates good energy and instills eclecticism with its cheery vibes. This color is preferred by people who love innovation and originality.  

To infuse the vibrance of this shade, start by bringing the sunrays to your walls with a yellow laminate décor. Moreover, the laminate’s resistance to cracks, steam, scratches and surface wear and tear makes it suitable for daily use, which is especially important in today’s increase of working from home. Place white framed artworks on your walls as statement pieces to compliment the yellow color. Lastly, keep your furniture wooden and minimal to help you relax and enjoy your “me” time.

Glamorous Lilac

Shades of the purple family are usually preferred by those who have a highly creative streak. Lilac lovers aspire for uniqueness but lean toward the softer, more sentimental side of purple. The best way to showcase this in your room is by getting melodramatic with your interiors. Choose lilac laminate décors for walls and pair with wooden floors in a light brown color to achieve an effortless balance. 

To make your interiors even more interesting, play around with floral patterned cushions topped on a muted gray sofa set. Complete this look with a mix of open and closed cabinets in wooden laminates to inject an eclectic effervescence. 

Rejuvenate With Green

Green is nature’s most ubiquitous and versatile shade. While it is the perfect equalizer between warm and cool tones, shades of green are loved by those looking for balance. It’s the color of renewal, prosperity and harmony. Therefore, this color is capable of broadcasting natural sparkle and stability.

To bring home the feeling of a rejuvenating retreat, you can add nature’s color to otherwise plain décor. For instance, go for a light green laminate décor for your closed cabinetry that will blend with your soft color palette. And since decorative laminates come with dimensional stability, you can use them in any climatic condition without worrying about replacing them seasonally. Lastly, enhance this setup with the timeless charm of ceramicware and net curtains to maintain the theme.
