Paint and stain shades with elements of red offer energy to a room. Those with blue or purple are soothing as well as creative, adding interest to the room.

Positivity and joy can come from colors that are bright and warm, like paints or stains with yellow, orange, or red hues. These happy colors can add to a room layout that’s uplifting.

Shades of blue are cool and calming. The simpleness and neutral vibe of white, beige and gray shades can also have a calming effect.
